Common Tile Roofing Problems

Recognizing the Warning Signs of Tile Roof Damage

Property owners throughout New Bern often overlook early warning signs of tile roof deterioration until significant damage occurs. Broken or cracked tiles may seem like minor cosmetic issues, but they expose the underlayment to moisture infiltration. Over time, this leads to wood rot, structural weakening, and interior water damage that costs far more to repair than addressing the original issue. Coastal weather conditions accelerate wear, particularly when tiles shift during storms or high winds.

Another frequent concern involves failed underlayment beneath the tiles themselves. Even when tiles appear intact from the ground, the protective barrier underneath can deteriorate from age and exposure. This creates vulnerability to leaks that appear suddenly during heavy rainfall. Additionally, improper installation techniques or inadequate ventilation can cause premature tile failure and shortened roof lifespan.

Moss and algae growth also plague tile roofs in our humid climate, particularly on north-facing slopes or shaded areas. While this might seem purely aesthetic, these organisms trap moisture against the roof surface and accelerate material breakdown. If you notice missing tiles, visible cracks, water stains on ceilings, or organic growth patterns, your tile roof may need professional attention before minor problems become major headaches.

Read what your neighbors have to say about working with our dedicated team and the results we've delivered for their homes and businesses.

      Our experience with New Bern Roofing was excellent. We were impressed with them beginning with our first interaction with Bobby (Sales). He was punctual, honest, and gave us options regarding various roofing materials. We opted for the metal 5V roof and are very very pleased with the product and the look - as he ensured we would be! The project started a few days ahead of schedule and was completed precisely when they said it would be. Ta'Riq, the supervisor on the job, was diligent and routinely updated us on progress throughout the installation. He narrated and shot multiple videos as he walked the roof and inspected the work of the crew. Ta' Riq's oversight and follow-up was impressive and appreciated. His entire crew was polite, efficient, and admittedly proud to work for New Bern Roofing. There are many roofing companies to choose from, but I can highly recommend New Bern Roofing - we were delighted with the work and what we felt was a very fair price.
      We recently had New Bern Roofing replace the roof on our home in south Naples, and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. From the start, they were on top of everything, providing me updates and photos at every stage so I knew exactly what was happening. There were a few unexpected repairs needed on the roof, during which New Bern Roofing provided constant communications, details and pictures before and after. Their crew very clean, in which we got complements from neighbors commenting on how clean the job site was. Highly recommend them.
      New Bern Roofing did an amazing job putting up our Christmas lights this year. Their team was prompt, professional and worked quickly to get the job done. Once they got started I decided I wanted more done than originally anticipated and they were happy to make it happen for me! I love the results and my kids are beyond thrilled with the Christmas spirit it provides! Thank you to an amazing team led by an amazing person Derric!
      Highly professional, detailed, thorough, and a pleasure to work with. New Bern Roofing staff, especially Karl Sheen and Nancy Thompson, made the job of replacing my entire roof easy and hassle free. They handled the insurance company expertly. The construction team was on time, they cleaned up afterwards, and the results are gorgeous! One small note: how many other roofing companies would start the job with a nice bottle of wine and a thank you note left on your doorstep?!
      Making those initial calls to a few roofing companies was somewhat scary. We had 4 appointments set and only 2 even showed up. One guy came and gave us a hand written quote without even getting up on the roof. Sean came on time, did a full inspection, and came back a couple days later to go over everything with us. Our roof was put on 3 week later and everything went according to plan! Sean was here in Naples for the installation and made sure everything was cleaned up when the crew was done. We are 100% happy and would recommend New Bern Roofing and Sean to anyone in need of a new roof!
      What a wonderful experience working with New Bern Roofing. Very professional, timely and a pleasure to work with. Always available to take calls. Would highly recommend them.
      I've heard all the Florida stories; needing a new roof immediately puts you into this nightmare of shifty contractors, unavailable products, long wait times, and broken promises, ugh. So I was prepared for the worst when Helene took some of our roof off. I did my due diligence; I checked with my city for licensed and approved contractors, I looked at google reviews, and I called the companies that made the tile and/or metal that I was considering putting on my roof to see who they recommended in my area. That's actually how I accidentally ended up finding New Bern Roofing-the tile company had sent me to a roofing company in Charlotte, NC instead of Charlotte County, FL. They were VERY confused when I called them, lol, but they strongly recommended New Bern Roofing, so I checked them out online and added them to my list of 3 companies to interview. Company #1 comes out and we get the hard-press-scare-you used car salesman sales tactics. This may work on the elderly, but it didn't sit well with us. Company #2 was solid but only sold aluminum metal roofs, which was our only option besides tile because we live on the ocean and if you look closely at the steel roof warranties they aren't so happy about coastal properties. Anyhoo, the aluminum roof was $25,000 more expensive than tile. For a 1700 sq ft house. Ouch. Company #3 was New Bern Roofing & Roofing. From the jump Bill was respectful, thoughtful, and asked a lot of good questions about what we wanted for a roof. He also went up on the roof and checked the existing damage from Helene. We told him we'd like three pricing options for tile, aluminum, and some fancy resin roofs out there that we were considering. His presentation was professional, quick, and balanced with the pro's and con's. One of the things we really liked was that their tile roofs are screwed on with stainless steel screws instead of nailed on with galvanized nails, which corrode and disintegrate in coastal areas in a few years. We also liked how detailed their price sheet was-we could see exactly how many stainless steel screws we were paying for. So we crossed our fingers and went with New Bern Roofing. Here's where the story really gets good-they consistently under-promised and over-performed. The tile I wanted was actually in stock, and instead of having to wait for months, it was on my roof within two weeks. The project manager, Ta' Riq, created a group text and consistently sent me live video updates FROM THE ROOF as they were working on it so when issues occurred I could make the decisions on what to do in real time rather than hearing about it later. Ta' Riq was also professional and consistent. We were prepared for what to expect with the tear off as Bill had gone over it with us very thoroughly. It was amazing how many people showed up, how fast they worked, and how nothing was damaged. The people working on the roof were also nice-when I was out walking our dog they'd wave to us from the roof lol. The materials that were promised in the contract were the materials that showed up on the roof. The underlayment of a tile roof is really what keeps your house dry, and I had done my homework about what kind I wanted (Owens Corning), and it was the same type New Bern Roofing recommended and installed. The teardown and dry-in was done in two days, and they hustled to get most of the roof on before we had a weird late season tropical storm. The next day they were back at it and had the roof done. All in all from signing the contract to the final approval from the city for a finished roof was about 2 weeks. That's freaking amazing. They were efficient, competent, and talented. My roof looks gorgeous. Our 27 year old house had its original roof on it and is surrounded by new, million dollar plus homes, and so we went from being "that house" to "look at THAT house so cute omg!" Again, I can't say enough good things about these folks and I'm still pinching myself that I have a beautiful roof and ZERO headaches about the entire process thanks to them.
      Bobby did an outstanding job helping me with my new tile roof. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and made the whole process easy. He's hands down the best salesman I've dealt with-his communication was excellent and he kept me updated every step of the way. Couldn't be happier with the service and highly recommend asking for Bobby if you're looking at getting a roof!
      The company I work for hired New Bern Roofing and we had a great experience. Their team was professional, easy to work with, and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. We truly appreciate their reliability and would definitely recommend them.
      Let me start by saying I have never felt compelled to write a google review. Having said that I have worked with dozens of contractors over the years and my experience with the New Bern Roofing team and Bill Demersky was the best experience ever. I contacted them 3 years ago to repair a leak on my 20+ year old tile roof on Marco. They did a great job on the repair but I was most impressed that Bill drove 7 hours round trip to a tile boneyard to match tile on a repair that was a less that $3000. Had another leak in a different spot this fall and decided to replace the roof. Bill gave me all the options on materials, worked with my design firm and we decided to go with the Worthouse metal tile. It turned out great but what was most important was the way New Bern Roofing managed the job. We live in Ohio so doing a remote project is always a bit tricky. The communication from New Bern Roofing is exemplary. Status updates we on time and they do a great job over communicating the step by step process. When on site they sent me multiple video updates daily of every step as well as real time calls from the roof while working. Everyone who worked at our house was professional, friendly, and communicative. Bill is always available on his cell by call or text. By far the best contractor I have ever worked with. I'm sure they are not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.
      New Bern Roofing fixed another roofing company's shoddy work. Another roofing company had completed installing our roof from a hurricane claim. While it looked great but lasted 3 years before a preventable leak occurred. That other company took shortcuts. My front bedroom ceiling became wet. I called the original company who (after much encouragement) came out and said they fixed it. A few months later the leak was even worse. I had to again repair the ceiling and walls. I recently learned of New Bern Roofing. When I called them, they came out and diagnosed the problem. They were reasonable with the price and took the extra effort to truly fix the situation. They were transparent and showed me the exact problem. They covered my roof right then to prevent further water intrusion and completed the repair within 2 days. No more leak. I recommend them with confidence. Great staff and great work.
      I never leave reviews. Ever. But New Bern Roofing saved me. I have an older home and needed a new roof and new roof deck. The other company was cheap. They ended up leaving me with a real mess. New Bern Roofing came in and fixed everything. It looks brand new. The crew is exceptional. The customer experience was phenomenal. I will never hire anyone for any work other than New Bern Roofing.
      I was SO pleased dealing with Nancy Thompson at New Bern Roofing!! She made the project so easy to deal with. The workmanship was wonderful and everyone was courteous. My new roof is perfect. Thank you for the wonderful job!!!
      I had a huge leak in my roof and New Bern Roofing rushed out to patch the issue immediately, saving my home from what would have been tons of water damage. Afterwards I got quotes from numerous local companies for a new roof and New Bern Roofing had competitive pricing and their people were great to work with so I went forward with them. It's been a year now and I didn't want to give them a review right away because I wanted to make sure the roof was good before giving them my seal of approval. Now I must say it's rained many times since I got my new roof and not a drop of water has entered my home. The roof looks great also. Would definitely recommend getting a new roof from New Bern Roofing.
      I don't even know where to begin! From the very first phone call to the initial meeting and throughout the entire process, I can't say enough about how AMAZING Bobby Rodgers and the New Bern Roofing Team were. The communication was outstanding - from our project manager who was up on the roof sending videos of the progress, to being included in a text chain with Derrick (the owner) and all parties involved right from the start. It gave us peace of mind knowing that if there was ever a question or concern, we could reach anyone immediately. From the tear-off, to completion, to the final clean-up - everything was absolutely TOP NOTCH. Thank you, Bobby Rodgers and New Bern Roofing, for such a GREAT EXPERIENCE.
      Bobby and New Bern Roofing were great to work with. Bobby in particular took a personal interest in our roofing project from start to finish. Final result awesome!
      5 stars to New Bern Roofing! Everyone involved from sales with Bill Demersky, Nancy Thompson, the owner Sean Dunn, to the roofer and gutter installers, all were polite, professional and organized. Special shoutout for Tariq who project managed the roof installation and kept me informed with pictures and texts throughout the process. Cost was on par with 2 other estimates but with New Bern Roofing, I felt relaxed and trusted the job would be done on time and as contracted. Job well done by professionals! Thank you!
      It wasn't a big job or huge opportunity, but New Bern Roofing came right over to make repairs to my roof when I was in need. The technician was on-time, friendly, reassuring and jumped right on the repairs. He did a very thorough inspection. I was very happy how quickly New Bern Roofing took care of my roof repairs.
      Sales process was informative. Start of the project was timely. Staff personnel were very nice and helpful. Ta'Riq was a very good project supervisor. And, it looks great!
      New Bern Roofing is an amazing company that not only provides exceptional quality in their work, but gives back to the community, St. Jude's Research and so much more! So here is my story I have to share. I have been a police officer for over 30 years and I have recently retired. I spent my last 5 years of service as a School Resource Officer in SWFL. A few months ago I reached out to the owner of New Bern Roofing, Derric Stull, for a roof quote. I knew Derric and his family through the school that I was assigned to protect. My roof is over 20 years old and I needed to replace it. Without my knowledge, Derric, nominated me for a roof replacement program for First Responders with Owens Corning, who is also partnered with The Gary Sinise Foundation. I was selected as the first recipient for this newly launched program! My new roof was just completed and my family and I couldn't be happier! All of the New Bern Roofing family is amazing and I would highly recommend them. A special thanks to the installation crew, Derric Stull, Sean Dunn, Nancy Thompson and Bill Demersky. You were all very kind and always professional throughout the entire process. New Bern Roofing, are truly a blessing in my life!

      Common Questions About Tile Roofing

      Frequently Asked Questions

      We've answered some of the most common questions property owners ask about tile roofing services in New Bern. Our experienced team has worked with hundreds of customers throughout Craven County, and we understand the concerns that come with making roofing decisions. If you don't see your specific question addressed below, we're here to help with personalized guidance tailored to your situation.

      Properly installed and maintained tile roofs can last between 50 to 100 years in coastal environments, significantly outlasting many other roofing materials. The longevity depends on several factors including the specific tile type (clay versus concrete), quality of installation, and regular maintenance. Clay tiles generally offer the longest lifespan, often exceeding 75 years, while concrete tiles typically perform well for 50 years or more. The key to maximizing lifespan involves addressing minor damage promptly, ensuring proper attic ventilation, and scheduling periodic inspections to catch potential issues before they escalate. Coastal properties face additional challenges from humidity and salt air exposure, but quality tile materials handle these conditions exceptionally well when installed correctly. Regular maintenance helps ensure your tile roof reaches its full potential lifespan while protecting your property investment.
      Clay and concrete tiles each offer distinct characteristics that make them suitable for different applications and preferences. Clay tiles are manufactured from natural clay fired at high temperatures, resulting in a denser, more durable product with excellent color retention. They're typically lighter than concrete tiles and naturally resist fading from sun exposure. Clay tiles often carry a premium appearance and higher initial investment. Concrete tiles, manufactured from sand, cement, and water, offer versatility in color and style at a more accessible price point. They're slightly heavier than clay and may experience some color fading over extended periods, though modern manufacturing has greatly improved color stability. Both materials provide excellent fire resistance, energy efficiency through natural thermal mass, and storm resistance when properly installed. The choice between clay and concrete often comes down to aesthetic preferences, budget considerations, and specific architectural requirements. Our team can help you evaluate which option best suits your property's needs and your long-term goals.
      In most cases, individual damaged tiles can be replaced without requiring a complete roof replacement, making tile roofing a cost-effective long-term investment. The process involves carefully removing the damaged tile without disturbing surrounding materials, inspecting the underlayment for any moisture damage, and installing a matching replacement tile using proper techniques. This targeted approach addresses specific problem areas while preserving the rest of your functioning roof system. However, the feasibility depends on several factors including the extent of damage, availability of matching tiles, and the condition of underlying materials. If damage is widespread or the underlayment has deteriorated significantly, more extensive repairs or replacement may provide better value. Additionally, if your roof is approaching the end of its expected lifespan and showing multiple problem areas, investing in comprehensive replacement might make more financial sense than ongoing individual repairs. During our inspection, we assess the overall roof condition and provide honest recommendations about whether targeted repairs or broader solutions better serve your interests and budget.
      Properly installed tile roofing systems offer excellent storm resistance, including protection during hurricanes and severe weather events common in coastal North Carolina. Modern installation techniques incorporate enhanced fastening methods, high-quality underlayment, and proper flashing that secure tiles against high winds and driving rain. Tiles themselves are extremely heavy and durable, resisting impact damage from flying debris better than many lighter roofing materials. However, performance depends heavily on installation quality and proper maintenance. Tiles must be correctly fastened according to manufacturer specifications and local building codes, with particular attention to vulnerable areas like edges, ridges, and valleys. Regular inspections help identify loose or damaged tiles before storm season, allowing preventive repairs that maintain your roof's protective capabilities. While no roofing system is completely hurricane-proof, tile roofing ranks among the most storm-resistant options available when installed by experienced professionals who understand coastal building requirements. We follow strict installation protocols designed to maximize your roof's ability to withstand severe weather while providing long-term protection for your property investment.
      Tile roofs require relatively minimal maintenance compared to many other roofing systems, though regular attention helps maximize lifespan and performance. Annual or biannual inspections allow professionals to identify and address minor issues before they develop into larger problems. These inspections typically include checking for cracked or displaced tiles, examining flashing around penetrations and valleys, assessing underlayment condition where visible, and evaluating overall structural integrity. Keeping gutters clean and ensuring proper drainage prevents water backup that can damage roof edges and underlayment. In our humid coastal climate, periodic cleaning to remove moss, algae, and organic debris helps prevent moisture retention and material deterioration. This doesn't require aggressive pressure washing, which can damage tiles, but rather gentler cleaning methods that preserve material integrity. Additionally, trimming overhanging tree branches reduces debris accumulation and prevents impact damage during storms. Walking on tile roofs should be minimized and performed only by experienced professionals who understand proper techniques to avoid breaking tiles. With this straightforward maintenance approach, your tile roof will continue protecting your property efficiently for decades while maintaining its attractive appearance and structural integrity.
      Tile roofing offers significant energy efficiency advantages that can reduce cooling costs and improve indoor comfort throughout the year. The natural thermal mass of clay and concrete tiles absorbs heat during the day and releases it slowly, moderating temperature fluctuations and reducing the work your HVAC system must perform. The profile design of most tile installations creates an air gap between the tiles and underlayment, allowing ventilation that dissipates heat before it transfers into your attic space. This natural cooling effect is particularly valuable in our warm North Carolina climate where cooling costs represent a substantial portion of energy expenses. Additionally, tile materials reflect more solar radiation than darker roofing options, further reducing heat absorption. Light-colored tiles provide the greatest reflective benefits, though all tile colors offer better thermal performance than many conventional roofing materials. The durability of tile roofing also contributes to long-term energy efficiency by maintaining consistent protective properties without the degradation that affects other materials over time. When combined with proper attic insulation and ventilation, tile roofing creates an energy-efficient building envelope that keeps your property comfortable while reducing utility expenses and environmental impact for decades.
