Tile roofing stands out as one of the most durable and attractive roofing options available, especially in regions like Largo, Clearwater, and throughout Pinellas County. While tile roofs offer many advantages, they are also among the most complex roofing systems to install.


This complexity requires skilled professionals who understand the nuances of tile roofing installation and maintenance. RoofSource Inc. has built a strong reputation in the area for handling tile roofing projects with expertise and care, ensuring lasting quality for homeowners.

Why Choose Tile Roofing?


Tile roofing offers several benefits that make it a popular choice for homeowners in Largo and Clearwater:


  • Longevity: Tile roofs can last 50 years or more, far exceeding the lifespan of traditional asphalt shingles. This long life means fewer replacements and less hassle over time.

  • Durability: Tiles resist damage from harsh weather conditions common in Pinellas County, including heavy rain, strong winds, and intense sun exposure.

  • Energy Efficiency: Tile roofs provide excellent insulation, helping to keep homes cooler during Florida’s hot summers. This can reduce energy bills by lowering the need for air conditioning.

  • Aesthetic Appeal: Tiles come in various styles and colors, allowing homeowners to customize their roof to match their home’s architecture and personal taste.

  • Fire Resistance: Tile roofing materials are non-combustible, offering an extra layer of protection against fire hazards.


The Challenge of Installing Tile Roofing


Despite its many benefits, tile roofing is one of the most complicated roofing systems to install.


The actual installation of tile is a process that can take years to learn, and experienced installers are more important on tile roofing than any other system.


The roofing process is performed in multiple stages. One full day of tear-off and dry-in. Then a whole day of just loading tiles onto the roof. Then usually 3-5 days installing the tile and mortar depending on size.


This requires a lot of planning and attention to detail to get done efficiently.


Because of these challenges, improper installation can lead to costly repairs and reduced roof lifespan. This is why choosing an experienced roofing company like RoofSource Inc. is essential.
