Roofing That Withstands Heat and Storms

Tile and Slate Roofing Installation and Repair in New Braunfels

When you need a roof that can handle intense sun and seasonal storms in New Braunfels, tile and slate systems offer durability and appearance that many homeowners in higher-end neighborhoods depend on. These roofing materials are common in areas where summer heat and sudden downpours test the limits of what standard shingles can handle, and you see them on homes where architectural detail matters as much as weather resistance.

Renewed Property Advisors installs and repairs concrete, clay, and Spanish tile roofing systems designed for long-term structural performance. Each installation includes proper underlayment, flashing, and load considerations that account for the weight and profile of tile or slate. Impact-resistant options are available if you want to improve storm durability without changing the look of your roof, and storm inspections help identify cracked or displaced tiles that may qualify for insurance repairs.

If your home in New Braunfels could benefit from tile or slate roofing, schedule an estimate to review your options and site conditions.

How Tile and Slate Systems Are Installed

Installing tile or slate roofing in New Braunfels starts with evaluating your roof deck to confirm it can support the additional weight, which is significantly more than asphalt shingles. The crew then lays a high-grade underlayment, installs flashing at penetrations and edges, and secures each tile or slate piece according to manufacturer specifications and local wind load requirements.

After the work is complete, you will notice a roof that looks more finished and holds up better under sun exposure and hail. Detail-oriented craftsmanship protects both the appearance and the longevity of the system, so tiles stay in place and water flows off the roof as intended.

The installation timeline depends on roof size and complexity, and the crew takes care to protect landscaping and entry areas during the project. This service does not include structural reinforcement if your deck was not originally designed for tile, but that can be addressed separately if needed.

Questions About Tile and Slate Are Common

Homeowners often ask about weight, maintenance, and storm performance before committing to tile or slate roofing, and those questions make sense given the investment and structural requirements involved.

What makes tile and slate roofing different from asphalt shingles?
Tile and slate are significantly heavier, last longer, and resist sun damage better than asphalt. They require a stronger roof deck and more precise installation to perform correctly.
How do you know if my roof can support tile or slate?
We measure your roof framing and deck thickness during the estimate to confirm it meets the load requirements. If it does not, we discuss reinforcement options before moving forward.
What happens if a tile cracks during a storm?
You can replace individual tiles without removing the entire roof, and we help document storm damage for insurance claims if the impact qualifies under your policy.
How long does a tile or slate roof last in New Braunfels?
Concrete and clay tile roofs typically last 40 to 50 years, and natural slate can last even longer if properly maintained. Both outlast standard shingles in this climate.
Why do some tile roofs look better than others over time?
Proper underlayment, flashing, and fastening prevent tiles from shifting or cracking prematurely. When those details are done right, the roof maintains its appearance and performance for decades.
