Is Your Clay Tile Roof Showing Its Age?
Clay tiles themselves are remarkably long-lived, but the layers beneath them and the mortar holding the ridge together wear out much sooner. Look for tiles that have shifted out of line, have hairline cracks or chipped edges, any flaking surfaces caused by freeze-thaw cycles and crumbling mortar along the ridge or hips. Water stains on upper-floor ceilings can also point to underlayment failure hiding under tiles that still look perfect from the street.
One important tip: avoid walking on a clay roof yourself. Tiles can break easily underfoot, and a quick look can turn into a costly repair. Book a free roof inspection instead, and we’ll give you a clear picture of what your roof needs and what it doesn’t.
Careful Work On A Delicate Roof
A clay tile roof rewards patience. Our team of professional roofers know how to move across a tile roof without causing new damage, how to lift and reset tiles cleanly and how to blend repairs so they disappear into the existing roofline. From a handful of broken tiles to storm damage across an entire slope, we arrive when promised, explain your options in plain language and leave the roof better than we found it.

A damaged clay roof rarely needs to be torn off. In most cases we can restore performance by addressing the specific problem areas, keeping your original tiles in place wherever possible and preserving the character that drew you to clay in the first place.
Cracked, Broken & Slipped Tiles
Hailstones, falling branches and seasonal movement can crack tiles or nudge them out of position, opening gaps for snowmelt and rain. We remove damaged pieces, source replacements that match your tile profile and colour, and secure every tile so the pattern stays uniform and watertight.
Underlayment Renewal
The membrane beneath clay tile typically wears out decades before the tiles do. When it fails, leaks follow. We carefully lift the affected tiles, install new high-performance underlayment suited to Calgary’s freeze-thaw conditions, then re-lay your original tiles so the roof looks exactly as it did before.
Ridge, Hip & Flashing Repair
Ridge and hip caps take the brunt of wind and temperature swings, and the mortar that holds them can loosen and crumble over time. We re-bed or re-point ridge lines, repair flashing around chimneys, vents and walls, and seal the junctions where water most often finds its way in. After a major storm, we’ll document all damage for your insurance provider and guide you through each step, so you can relax knowing your home is in good hands.
