Concrete Roof Tiles are a durable and lightweight alternative to natural clay and slate roof tiles, due to their affordable cost and authentic appearance. They are made using a combination of sand, cement and water.
Aside from their cost-effectiveness, one of the main reasons why concrete tiles have become so popular is their durability. Therefore, manufacturer warranties will typically last for 30 years, but
concrete tiles should last up to 50-60 years at a minimum and even longer in a number of cases.
Clay tiles are one of the most popular types of roofing materials throughout Europe.
They have been used for centuries due to their beautiful appearance, superb durability, and sustainable production. These roof tiles are available in a variety of styles. Partly made possible by the versatility of the materials and variety of colours clay is available in. This allows you to find the ideal appearance for your property. When building clay roof tiles you have a choice of various brands, such as Marley and Redland. Whilst they use similar materials, many offer unique colouring options and profiles.
Slate tiles offer durability, longevity and iconic natural beauty unlike any other material.
This style is perfect for adding a flawless finish to roofs and can be used with all forms of roof slates or slate appearance tiles. Slate is a natural stone, it is not affected by varying natural and manmade elements. It is impermeable to water does not grow moss or algae, and is completely fireproof. These are just a few of the benefits of natural slate roofing, along with its longevity and natural beauty.
