Frequently Asked Questions
Is tile roofing a good choice in Edmonton?
It can be. Concrete and clay tile are long-lasting and Class A fire rated, but they are heavy and need a roof structure rated for the load, plus careful detailing for freeze-thaw and snow. We assess each roof before recommending tile.
Concrete or clay — which should I choose?
Concrete tile offers slate, shake and Mediterranean looks with a non-prorated limited lifetime warranty and is listed by US Tile for Canada. Clay tile offers the authentic kiln-fired barrel look; we confirm Alberta supply and freeze-thaw ratings per project.
Who makes the tile you install?
We install US Tile® concrete and clay roofing from Westlake Royal Building Products, which includes the former Newpoint™ concrete tile line.
Can my existing roof take tile?
Concrete and clay tile are much heavier than asphalt shingles. Before quoting a tile roof, especially a re-roof, we confirm the structure is rated for the load and bring in an engineer where needed.
Do you install tile in Edmonton winters?
We schedule tile work around the weather and detail underlayment, flashing and ice protection for Alberta’s freeze-thaw cycles and snow load.
