When you’re thinking about a tile roof installation, repair or replacement, here’s what you should consider:

Installation considerations
Design versatility and material selection

Commercial tile roof installations is a complicated job, especially for large or steeply sloped commercial buildings. If, however, you choose the right roofing contractor, your finished tile roof will last for at least 100 years with proper maintenance. But the longevity of your commercial tile roofing system depends on its installation.Your roofing contractor should begin by checking the thickness of the roofing deck. This will ensure it is strong enough to hold the weight of the tile. Laying the correct underlayment—usually ASTM D226 Type II is recommended—will provide cushion for the tile during installation and insulation throughout its service life. Commercial tile roofs are laid and secured either with mortars or battens—a licensed roofing contractor experienced in tile roofs will point you toward the right method for your tile selection.You should only use a roofing contractor with commercial tile roof experience because tile dust—which contains crystalline silica, a known carcinogen—is released if tile is ground, cut or sawed improperly. An experienced contractor will know to take precautions to not only minimize the risks for their workers but also for your facility and employees.

Commercial tile roofs are manufactured in three ”profiles”—measured as the difference between the high and low points of installed tile—low profile, medium profile and high profile tiles. They are all effective and waterproof roofing options, so your choice will depend on the effect you’re trying to capture with your facility’s design.Whatever profile you choose, it is important to check whether your tile selection has met standards set by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). For instance, concrete tiles are regulated by ASTM C1492, which dictates proper manufacturing practices that should be followed in order to achieve optimal durability, strength, and quality. Clay tiles are regulated similarly by ASTM C1167. You need to choose a roofing contractor familiar with these standards, as well as installation best practices, so you can be sure you’re getting the best value.Your roofing contractor should also be willing to work with your architect or designer in material selection so that your tiles are not only structurally safe, but contribute to your desired aesthetic for the facility.

What Our Customers Say

Great company and team of guys! Responded fast after the last storm to fix the leak!

lunker Jacob

Wildwood was called in on an insurance claim as a secondary evaluator. Thomas did a thorough and professional inspection of the damage, submitted a timely report, and did so in a very kind and courteous manner. Very refreshing and much appreciated!

Cheryl Havlin

Adam was so helpful throughout the entire process. The crew was amazingly fast and the new roof looks fantastic! I highly recommend Wildwood Roofing.

Lisa Kovac

Jay was extremely professional and very knowledgeable. He helped me make my decision and I am beyond satisfied with the results.

Debra Bianco

When our roof was damaged by hail, we were referred to Caleb at Wildwood roofing. That was in mid May of this year and Caleb took care of everything, including all communication with our insurance agent as well as the claim adjusters. We literally had to do nothing. He told us our roof would probably be replaced by July and it is finished as of yesterday July 18. The workers were amazing, quick, polite, and left the place spotless. They did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend this company to anyone.

Diane Moellering

Had great experience with this company from initial contact to final inspection. They advised on quality & pricing of shingles resulting in the best product for my house. Installation was very efficient and finished product looks fantastic.
