Tile in Roanoke
Roanoke sits at U.S. 377 and State Highway 114, about two miles south of Grapevine Lake, and Census estimates show it growing from 9,671 residents in 2020 to about 10,931 in 2025. Most of its tile is on homes built in the last two decades — usually concrete tile in Mediterranean and Spanish styles — plus decorative tile on some restaurant and retail buildings that give Roanoke its look. The Texas House of Representatives named Roanoke "The Unique Dining Capital of Texas," and storefront roofs there often mix a tile or tile-look mansard with a flat roof behind it.
Repair, lift-and-relay or replace
- Spot repair: a few cracked or slipped tiles, a pipe flashing or a valley on an otherwise sound roof.
- Lift-and-relay: the tile is fine but the underlayment beneath it is failing. We stack the tile, install new underlayment and flashing, and reset the same tile. See tile repair and reset.
- Replacement: tile is broken widely or discontinued, or you want a new color or profile. Compare clay and concrete tile.
Concrete tile on a 15- or 20-year-old house is often still sound. When it leaks, the cause is usually underlayment, a valley or wall flashing, which is exactly what a lift-and-relay fixes without buying new tile.
Storefronts and mansards
Where a tile mansard meets the flat roof behind a parapet is one of the most common commercial leak points. We fix both sides: the tile and its flashing on the face, and the membrane and counterflashing behind it. See commercial roofing in Roanoke.
Hail around Roanoke
NOAA's Storm Events Database lists more than 50 reports of hail 1.75 inches (golf-ball size) or larger within about 10 miles of Roanoke from 2016 through the September 2026 update. The largest was 4.25-inch hail near Bartonville on June 11, 2023, and on May 27, 2024 2-inch hail was reported at the Roanoke-area airport, about a mile from town. The Storm Prediction Center's 2026 reports include 1-inch hail 3 miles northwest of Keller and 1.5-inch hail 2 miles southeast of Haslet on August 26, 2026 and 1-inch hail just east-northeast of Keller on September 21, 2026. Concrete tile can crack or lose its surface in large hail, and broken pieces let water reach the underlayment. If you file an insurance claim, we document the damage and meet your adjuster on the roof. Texas law requires you to pay your deductible, and a contractor may not waive, absorb or rebate it. We never will.
How we inspect a roof you can't walk like a shingle roof
Slate and tile break under the wrong footstep, so a careless inspection can cause the damage it's looking for. We plan a walk path, step only where the pieces are supported, use roof ladders and pads where needed, and fly a drone over the areas that aren't safe to walk. Every inspection comes with a free digital photo report, so you see what we see. The report separates old breaks, fresh breaks and installation problems, because they lead to very different answers.
City of Roanoke permits
The City of Roanoke requires a roofing permit for a roof replacement, and contractors must be registered with the city. The city's roofing permit form says photo documentation of the roof, vent terminations and attic vent clearances may be accepted for the final inspection. We file the permit and handle the inspection.
