Clay Roof Tiles: Timeless Beauty, Proven Performance

Clay tiles have crowned homes for centuries. Kiln-fired at extreme temperatures, they offer unmatched longevity, fire resistance, and thermal performance.

Key Advantages

  • 75–100+ year lifespan – often outlasts the structure.
  • Fireproof – Class A rating; slows flame spread.
  • Thermal mass – keeps interiors cooler in summer, warmer in winter.
  • Water-shedding glaze – minimizes absorption and moss growth.
  • 100% recyclable – crushed for road base, new tiles, or bricks.
  • Color variety – traditional terracotta, plus glazed blues, greens, grays.
  • Low maintenance – no painting; occasional gutter and flashing checks only.

Considerations

Brittle—avoid walking on roof. Heavy—verify structural capacity. Higher upfront cost, but lowest lifecycle cost.
