This is the Mascotte page for tile roofing. The short version: you want a tile roof quote from someone who actually installs tile rather than subs it out, and you can have it without a salesperson at the door.
Get a written quoteThe hurricane deductible math is a little kinder inland, but a named storm still triggers it, so the date of loss on any claim should be nailed down before filing. Attic heat is the silent killer of inland shingle roofs; temperatures above 140°F cook asphalt from underneath, and ventilation is the line item most quotes skip. Builder-grade ridge vents and starter strips are the early failure points on these roofs, and often it's a repair rather than a replacement.
What it costs in Mascotte: concrete tile runs two to three times shingle; clay is higher; underlayment replacement on an existing tile roof is its own line item and is often the real reason a tile roof needs work.

How it works
Tile is heavy and wind-resistant, and with the right attachment method it scores well on a wind mitigation inspection. It's also expensive to replace, which is part of why some carriers are cautious about older tile roofs.
Tile is the wear layer, not the waterproofing. The underlayment beneath it typically fails at 20–25 years, and once it does, the roof leaks regardless of how good the tile looks. A re-underlayment (lift, replace, reset) is sometimes an option.
