Clay tile boasts many advantages, according to Christian Roofing, and these benefits have already made them highly popular for homeowners in the area. However, the company acknowledges that there are always people who will be skeptical of choosing an option simply because it is popular. While skepticism is warranted in many cases, however, clay tiles actually have earned their popularity — and this is largely due in part to how durable they are, though they do have several other aspects that homeowners have come to appreciate over the years.
Able to withstand sun, salt, rain, heat and wind, clay tiles have proven adept at taking on a wide variety of climates and weather patterns (and many will be aware of the material’s historical significance around the world). However, one feature that makes them particularly useful in the modern home is that they are energy efficient, serving to keep local homes warm in the winter and cool in the summer. They also tend to feature low maintenance costs and come with extended material warranties in most cases. Christian Roofing points out that such tiles are excellent for use in Spanish, Mediterranean and Contemporary Coastal homes, partly because they blend in well with these types of architecture.
This durability is known to last for several years, prompting many manufacturers to confidently offer 50-year warranties on their clay tile roofing. This type of roofing is also not vulnerable to rot, insect damage or even warping, and an installation that is carried out properly will ensure it remains structurally sound against leaks, cracking and weather wear. These strengths are what contribute to its reputation for low maintenance requirements.
Notably, however, the company does clarify that clay tiles still need to be installed by an experienced contractor who knows what they are doing. Certain preparations need to be made prior to clay tile installation, for instance, such as ensuring that the roof in question is strong enough to withstand the upgrade. If it is not, fortifications will need to be made ahead of the installation. Furthermore, clay tile roofing needs to be installed a single tile at a time since each piece needs to be oriented in a certain fashion in order to be secure and form an effective barrier against moisture.
This process contributes to the higher initial cost of clay tile roofing, but the company assures homeowners that this investment is more than likely to pay off in the long run. Christian Roofing’s contractors have developed a specific approach to installing clay tile roofing that allows them to minimize delays and ensure an installation is completed to the homeowner’s satisfaction (as well as their own uncompromising standards).
The team takes several factors into consideration as part of this procedure, such as measuring the pitch of the roof to ensure it will be water-proof once complete, checking the strength of the roof structure, analyzing the pattern and shape of the tile being used (which is unique to every home given the sheer variety available) and so on. They explain that even the method of securing the tile and materials used can contribute greatly to the success of a project, so their team makes it a point to use situation-appropriate nails, wood sheathing and more during their work.
