We focus on installing clay tiles that complement your home and withstand Texas weather.
Texas experiences a range of weather conditions, from intense summer heat and humidity to occasional severe thunderstorms and hail. Clay tiles offer a robust solution, providing excellent resistance to these elements. Our installation process begins with a thorough assessment of your existing roof structure to confirm its suitability for the weight of clay tiles. We meticulously prepare the roof deck, installing high-quality underlayment and ensuring proper ventilation to manage Texas's humidity. The careful placement and fastening of each tile are crucial for preventing wind damage and ensuring water integrity, especially in areas prone to heavy rain.
We navigate the permitting and licensing landscape across Texas, ensuring all installations comply with local building codes. This varies by municipality around San Antonio, and we manage this process efficiently. Considering the diverse housing stock in Texas, from historic homes to newer constructions, we evaluate each property's unique requirements. This includes verifying the structural capacity of older homes, which may require reinforcement to support the load of clay tiles. Our detailed approach ensures a seamless installation that enhances your home's appearance and provides long-term protection.
Texas weather, with its intense sun, humidity, and potential for severe storms, requires durable roofing. Clay tiles offer excellent resistance to heat and impact. Proper installation ensures they can withstand high winds and heavy rainfall common in areas like San Antonio.
Our process starts with a structural evaluation of your roof. We then prepare the deck, install robust underlayment, and meticulously lay each tile, ensuring correct overlap and secure fastening. Flashing details around vents and chimneys are critical for watertightness.

Clay tiles offer superior durability, excellent fire resistance, and a distinctive aesthetic that complements many Texas architectural styles. They also provide good insulation, which can help moderate interior temperatures.
Homeowners in Texas should avoid standard asphalt shingles that are not rated for high heat and prolonged sun exposure, as they can curl and degrade quickly. Materials with low impact resistance may also be problematic due to hail.
