Professional clay and concrete tile roof repairs by specialists who understand Arizona's unique tile roofing challenges. Fast service, matching tiles, proper installation techniques.
Expert Tile Roof Repair for Arizona Homes
Tile roofs are iconic in Phoenix and Peoria—beautiful, durable, and perfectly suited to our climate when properly maintained. Clay and concrete tiles can last 50+ years, but they're not invincible. Thermal cycling, impacts, and improper installation can cause cracks, breaks, and displacement that lead to leaks and water damage.
Service Areas: We proudly serve Phoenix, Peoria, Glendale, Surprise, and Goodyear throughout the Arizona Valley.
Valley Roof Connect connects you with roofing contractors who specialize in tile roof systems. They understand how Arizona's extreme temperature swings affect tiles, know where to source matching replacements, and use proper installation techniques that prevent future problems.
Common Tile Roof Problems
- Cracked tiles – Thermal stress, foot traffic, or impacts causing visible cracks that allow water intrusion
- Broken or missing tiles – Wind, hail, falling debris, or deterioration leaving gaps in coverage
- Displaced or slipped tiles – Tiles that have shifted out of position due to wind or poor initial installation
- Underlayment failure – The waterproof layer beneath tiles deteriorating before the tiles themselves
- Flashing issues – Metal work around chimneys and valleys separating or corroding
- Valley leaks – Water channeling through valleys finding weak points in underlayment
Our Tile Roof Repair Process
1
Inspection & Diagnosis
Contractor safely accesses your tile roof, identifies all damaged tiles, checks underlayment condition, and photographs problem areas for your reference.
2
Tile Sourcing
For matching repairs, contractor identifies your exact tile type (manufacturer, style, color) and sources matching or compatible replacements—often available locally.
3
Professional Repair
Damaged tiles are carefully removed, underlayment is inspected and repaired if needed, and new tiles are properly installed following manufacturer specifications and best practices.
Why Tile Roof Repairs Require Specialists
Walking on tile roofs requires experience and care—improper foot placement can crack tiles and create more damage than you started with. Quality tile roof contractors know:
- Safe access techniques: Where to step, proper ladder placement, and how to work on steep slopes without damaging tiles
- Installation methods: Proper overlap, fastening techniques, and how to maintain water-shedding integrity
- Material sourcing: Where to find matching tiles for repairs (including discontinued styles) and when close-match alternatives work
- Underlayment knowledge: When to replace sections of felt or synthetic underlayment that may have deteriorated
- Code compliance: Current Phoenix metro requirements for tile installation, especially for extensive repairs
Clay vs. Concrete Tiles in Arizona
Clay Tiles: Traditional terracotta or glazed clay. Extremely durable, excellent UV resistance, maintains color well. Higher cost but can last 75+ years. More brittle and prone to cracking from impacts.
Concrete Tiles: Molded and colored concrete. More affordable, good durability (30-50 years). Color can fade over time. Slightly more resistant to impacts than clay but heavier.
Both perform well in Arizona when properly installed and maintained. Your contractor can advise on best replacement options for your specific roof.
Frequently Asked Questions
Usually yes. Many tile styles have been manufactured for decades. Even if your exact tile is discontinued, contractors can often find matching salvaged tiles or very close alternatives. New tiles will weather to match over 1-2 years.
Simple repairs (replacing 5-10 tiles) typically run $400-$800. Larger repairs involving dozens of tiles or underlayment work can cost $1,500-$4,000. Pricing depends on tile type, roof accessibility, and extent of damage.
Initially yes—new tiles will be cleaner and may be slightly brighter. Over 1-2 years of Arizona sun exposure, they'll weather and blend with surrounding tiles. Some contractors can artificially age new tiles for better immediate match.
If your roof is under 30 years old with limited damage (less than 20% of tiles), repair is usually the best choice. For roofs over 40 years with widespread cracking or underlayment failure, replacement may be more cost-effective long-term.
Properly installed tile repairs last as long as the surrounding original roof—potentially decades. The new tiles themselves are often good for 40-50+ years. Underlayment repairs typically last 15-25 years depending on material quality.
