Terracotta / Clay Tiles

Terracotta tiles either have the colour impregnated through the entire tile or the have been fired with a glaze on them (sealed like a dinner plate). This means there is minimal fading, increased water resistance and even if you choose a gloss finish the roof should look the same as the day it was installed for a long time.

• Made of clay a natural renewable resource
• Many colours available, not just terracotta coloured
• The longevity of clay roof tiles is another advantage
• Almost no maintenance
• While their purchase and installation may be initially higher than other roofing materials there is normally a 50yr guarantee on the product
• Clay tiled roofs have lasted hundreds of year in some European buildings
