Choose Tile for Your New Roof

As previously mentioned, a new roof is a great way to dramatically change the appearance of your home. The different materials used to make roof tiles create many different looks, so you are sure to find one that is perfectly suited to your home and your needs. As an example, clay roof tile is a popular choice for homeowners across New Mexico and the rest of the nation, for their durability and resistance to fire. You have probably seen homes roofed with the red clay, barrel shaped tiles known as Spanish tile. Tile roofing is particularly well suited to warmer climates, such as ours in Albuquerque, because compared to other types of roofing, tile roofs usually have enhanced air circulation. Ambient air will be able to flow above and below your roofing tiles, shedding heat from the sun as it does so, and helping keep your home cooler.

A popular alternative to clay is concrete. Since concrete roofing tiles can be manufactured to imitate the appearance of other materials, they're a smart and versatile choice for your roof. These roofing tiles are designed to keep out water, and are fire resistant like their clay counterparts. The main difference between concrete and clay roofing tile is the price. Concrete tiles are usually about half as expensive as clay tiles are, which is another reason that these tiles are so popular.

No matter what type of roofing tile you decide to go with, the first step to take is to contact a contractor. By taking advantage of our free online estimate tool, you will be put in touch with a variety of local contractors that can sit down with you to discuss your options in terms of budget and timeline.
