bmh Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 some tiles cannot be found anymore and have to be bought used from houses that are being remodelled or destroyed.. Tlajamulco also makes tile.. I do not know where they make or if they still make straight tiles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmh Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 yes a picture and the number of tiles and dimensions would help.. When people are redoing old roofs the contractors haul everything.. I got some old tiles that we cannot find anymore from my neighbor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tiles have a little taper so that the end of the lower course fits under/inside of the upper course as it has to overlap. It is like stacking funnels or pieces of 2" PVC pipe. Doesn't work.

Go Solar Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 And consider the concrete based ones for durability and no maintenance, with a good look, plus they won't fly off in high winds.... http://enterpriseroofing.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/ca-lifetile_esp.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
