Tile roofing offers unmatched elegance, natural thermal insulation, and exceptional 50+ year longevity. From traditional Spanish S-tiles to flat concrete slate profiles, our craftsmen ensure precision batten installation and underlayment longevity.
Tile roofs are an iconic signature of Northern California architecture, renowned for their distinctive beauty, fire resistance, and ability to keep homes cool in hot summer climates. However, a tile roof is only as durable as the waterproof underlayment beneath it.
Surety Roofing specializes in both new tile installations and 'Tile Lift & Relays' (tile resets). We carefully remove existing tiles, replace aged 30-pound felt with heavy-duty commercial underlayment and new battens, and reinstall your authentic tiles.
Spanish barrel, mission S-tile, villa, and modern flat slate-look concrete tiles.
Heavyweight modified bitumen or synthetic tile underlayment engineered for 40+ years.
Elevated batten systems that allow airflow and water drainage beneath tiles.
Tile air channels create natural insulation, lowering attic temperatures by up to 20°F.
Completely non-combustible material offering the highest wildfire safety.
Cost-effective reuse of existing tiles while replacing the failed underlayment beneath.
A disciplined, step-by-step process designed for safety, precision, and zero disruption.
We verify that roof trusses and rafter framing meet building code load ratings for tile installation.
We install double-layer self-adhered tile underlayment, custom valley metals, and corrosion-resistant fasteners.
We secure treated battens and interlock each tile with stainless steel screws or clips for wind resistance.
We seal perimeter eaves with ventilated birdstops, install mechanical ridge caps, and inspect alignment.
If you notice any of these warning signs, schedule an on-site inspection immediately to protect your home.
Displaced or broken tiles expose the underlying felt membrane directly to sun and rain.
Even if tiles look pristine, felt underlayment beneath degrades after 20 to 25 years.
Crumbling cement mortar around ridge tiles allows wind-driven rain penetration.
Pine needles and silt clogging tile interlocks force water sideways under the roof.
