Frequently Asked Questions
What style of home suits Split Old English Thatch?
Tudor, English cottage, storybook and other traditional homes where a characterful, textured roof is part of the design.
Is it a flat tile?
Yes. It is part of the flat Saxony 900 family, with a split, hand-hewn surface texture.
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.
