Tile Roofing in Sanibel, FL: a written quote from a licensed Florida roofing contractor, built from aerial measurement, with no sales visit.
Get a written quoteDesign wind speeds near the coast are the highest in the state, which changes the nailing pattern, the underlayment, and the price. Salt air corrodes fasteners and drip edge years before shingles look worn, so coastal roofs often fail from the metal out. Additions from later decades were often tied into the original roof without proper flashing; those seams are where the leaks live.
What it costs in Sanibel: 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 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.
Individual cracked or displaced tiles, yes. Widespread tile loss usually means the underlayment took water and the whole system needs evaluation.
