Concrete Tiles

Concrete roof tiles are one of the most common roof coverings in the UK and usually cost less than natural slate. Modern concrete tiles come in profiles that imitate slate or clay, in consistent sizes that are straightforward to lay, and in a wide range of colours. They are a practical choice for homeowners who want a long-lasting roof on a tighter budget.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do concrete tiles fade over time?

Concrete tiles can lighten over the years as the surface weathers, and some are more prone to moss than clay or slate. Ask the roofer for the manufacturer's product details, including any manufacturer guarantee, so you know what you are buying.
