Tile Roof Repair & Underlayment Replacement in Scottsdale

Broken, missing or displaced tiles expose the underlayment to Arizona’s sun, wind and rain. The underlayment provides the primary waterproofing, but prolonged exposure can shorten its life and increase the risk of leaking.

Often, yes. Tiles that remain in good condition can be carefully removed, organized and reset after the underlayment and flashing are replaced. Broken or unusable tiles are replaced as needed.

A sectional repair may be appropriate when the damage is isolated. If the underlayment is deteriorating throughout the roof or leaks keep returning in different areas, a complete underlayment replacement may provide better long-term protection.

Warning signs include recurring leaks, ceiling stains, deteriorated material around valleys or roof penetrations, and underlayment that is brittle, cracked or torn. The tiles may still look good even when the waterproofing beneath them is failing.

Not necessarily. Clay and concrete tiles frequently remain usable longer than the underlayment beneath them. An inspection determines which tiles can be reused and whether any damaged pieces need replacement.
