Roof Tile Materials

Nearly any material that is otherwise used for Suffolk roofing can be used to create tiles. Although most were traditionally made out of concrete, they are now available in wood, asphalt, fibreglass, metal and clay as well. In choosing the type of materials, a number of things should be taken into consideration:

  • Architecture of the building
  • Cost of materials and necessary supplies
  • Ability to reflect light – wood and metal tiles absorb light better and therefore keep structures warmer
  • Whether or not soundproofing is desired – metal roofs do not disguise exterior noise from wind and rain like asphalt or fibreglass tiles do
  • Existing structure – concrete and clay tiles can sometimes be too heavy for existing beams to handle
  • Durability – clay and concrete tend to resist damage from storms better than other materials do
  • Colour – concrete and metal are available in a wider variety of colours than other materials

Material Benefits & Drawbacks

Tiles can be made from a variety of materials, and each one offers its own unique set of benefits and drawbacks. Some are heavier than others, some can reflect light, and some are more durable.

  • Concrete - Concrete tiles are the most traditional, but they’re quite heavy and prone to cracking. They tend to insulate rather well, but they don’t do a great job of reflecting sunlight unless they’re specifically treated to do so.
  • Wood - Treated wood tiles can be quite durable for many, many years, but they require plenty of maintenance and upkeep. Often, wood tiles are preferable among homeowners who want their homes to have a rustic appearance.
  • Asphalt - Asphalt tiles are second in popularity only to concrete. They’re lightweight and inexpensive, and they’re simple enough to repair. Asphalt can reflect sunlight back into the atmosphere, but these tiles lack the insulative properties of other materials.
  • Fibreglass - Fibreglass tiles are some of the most inexpensive roof covering options. They’re quite durable, and they come in every imaginable colour. They’re resistant to weather and tile, but they’re quite lightweight, which means they may not hold up as well as concrete, wood, clay, or slate tiles in very windy conditions.
  • Metal - Metal roofing tiles come in a variety of colours, too, and they can range from very light to very heavy. They are great choices in snowy climates since they facilitate quick melting, and they are highly reflective, which makes them popular in warmer locations.
  • Clay - Clay is a sustainable material that can be used for roofing. It can be dyed just about any colour imaginable, and it absorbs the heat around it. It isn’t as reflective as other materials, which means it’s perfect in cooler climates. However, clay can become brittle over time, which may result in cracks and breakage.
  • Slate - Slate is a type of stone that is mined from the earth and cut into symmetric tiles. They offer a natural colour variation across your entire roof, and they have a luxurious appearance. Slate roofs may last a century or more, but they are some of the most expensive roof tiles near me available today.
Suffolk tiles for shallow pitch roofing

Roof Tiles For Shallow Pitch Roofing

A typical Suffolk pitched roof is over 20 degrees which means you have a wide choice of tile available, but in the instances where your pitch is more shallow (such as an extension) then you need to consider specialist tiles developed exclusively to cope with shallow pitches down to 10 degrees.

Marley Wessex and Marley Wendip tiles are popular choices and can cope comfortably down to around 15 degrees pitch. There are a few concrete tiles designed to cope with pitches down to 10 degrees, and coated steel tiles that resemble concrete roof tiles can also be used. Any lower than 10 degrees and your choice will be limited to the various flat roofing options such as bitumen.

It's worth noting that when using tiles in such extremely shallow pitches then a number of other criteria will need to be met in order for them to be effective, such as overlap length and the smoothness of the finish. Get in touch to speak to a local Suffolk specialist who can advise on the best tile choice for your roof.

Suffolk Roof Tile Costs

When it comes to tiles, Suffolk contractors consider a number of factors when coming up with a cost estimate. A few of the things that can influence the cost of installation include:

  • Size and pitch of the roof
  • Whether or not a rippled effect is desired
  • Type of materials used
  • Whether or not there is also damage to eaves, rafters, or fascia board
  • Whether insulation is also being added at the same time
  • The need for old shingles to be removed
  • Presence of environmental hazards that must be removed: i.e. asbestos
  • Qualifications and experience of the roofing team
Suffolk roof tile costs

In general, Suffolk asphalt tiles are cheapest, followed by clay, concrete, wood and metal. The cost of materials is due in large part to the manufacturing process and availability of raw materials needed to make them.

Roof Tile Installation – Not a DIY Project

Many Suffolk homeowners think that replacing roof tiles is as easy as removing those that are damaged and replacing them. However, this is not always the case. An experienced roofer will not only replace missing or damaged ones; they will also perform a full inspection on the rest of the roof to determine whether any other damage is present as a result of there being broken or missing tiles.

In addition, many property owners are injured each year as a result of trying to perform their own replacements. As a result, this is a job that should always be left to qualified and experienced roofers. These professionals will know exactly how to walk on your roof to prevent injuries or further damage to existing roof tiles.

Your Suffolk roof tile questions answered

There are many different types, but clay, concrete and slate are by far the most common. Get in touch to discuss the best option for you.

Tiles will give your roof a unique classic look, and are often less expensive to use than solid sheets of material are.

This will depend on the type of tile. Clay tiles will cost from £0.47-£0.58/tile, while concrete tiles can cost up to £0.58-£1.37/tile. Installation will vary depending on the roofer, but can range around £150-£650.

Yes, but we generally recommend that you hire a professional roofer to make sure the job is done correctly. While you can buy roofing tiles, there is a higher chance of mistakes or injury if you do the job on your own.

By first installing an underlay over the surface of your roof, and then attaching battens, or thin strips of wood to it. Roofing tiles are then attached to these battens using roofing nails.

The typical roof pitch in the UK is well above 20 degrees so you aren't limited when it comes to tile choice. However in circumstances when your roof is at a more shallow pitch then there are other options that work as low as 10 degrees before you have to consider using flat roofing materials such as asphalt, though your choice is much more limited as the pitch decreases.

One of the best things about roofing tiles is that they come in any material you can imagine. Whether you want slate, wood, concrete, asphalt, fiberglass, or even plastic, you can find it. Choosing the right roof tile material often comes down to four factors: aesthetics, initial cost, longevity, and required maintenance. Homeowners should first find the materials they like, then consider the other factors. For example, although wood provides a rustic look, it is expensive to install and requires quite a bit of maintenance throughout the years.

Damaged tiles are easier to replace than slabs or shingles, in most cases. That’s because the tiles are smaller and easier to manipulate. Often, if only a few tiles are damaged by falling debris, wind, or hail, it’s relatively inexpensive to remove only those tiles and replace them. This can become trickier the older it is, though, since products may not be available decades after their original manufacture. It’s always a good idea to buy extra tiles when you install your roof as you never know when you might need some repairs carried out.

Many homeowners are concerned with maintenance when it comes to choosing the proper tile. The easiest ones to maintain are by far slate and metal, which require very little in the way of upkeep. Despite the low maintenance, though, it’s vital to have your roofing inspected from time to time. These materials can and sometimes do become damaged, and that damage can be significant if not immediately repaired.

Most roofing contractors agree that slate is the most durable and long-lasting of all roofing materials. However, it is also one of the heaviest, so be sure to talk to your contractor about your home’s structure and whether the beams can support the weight of the tiles.

Always enquire about the warranty being offered on them. Some companies offer longer warranty periods than others.
