What moves the price

  1. 01

    Restoration or replacement

    Reusing sound clay tile on new underlayment is a different scope from a full new roof.

  2. 02

    Profile matching

    Older homes may need a specific tile profile and color to match existing pieces.

  3. 03

    Design review

    Historic districts can add a review step before permit.

  4. 04

    Fire hazard zone

    Hillside areas fall in mapped fire hazard zones, which can bring added requirements.

  5. 05

    Permit and inspection

    Each city sets its own permit fees and inspection steps.

  6. 06

    Structure

    Tile is heavy. Framing may need review when tile replaces a lighter roof.

Questions

Can a historic clay tile roof be restored instead of replaced?

Frequently. Sound tiles can be removed, the underlayment renewed and the tiles reinstalled, with matched pieces replacing broken ones.

Are there extra rules for older homes?

Some cities have historic districts or design review. Ask the city planning office whether your address falls under one.

Who confirms the final price?

Only a licensed roofer who has measured and inspected the roof can give a firm written price.
