Overhead Roofing » Tile Roof Replacement
A roof is more than just a canopy; it is a sophisticated system designed to shield your family and your assets from the unpredictable elements. In the Mediterranean-inspired landscapes of Southern California, few architectural features are as iconic or as functional as a tile roof. However, even the most robust clay or concrete tiles eventually reach a point where maintenance is no longer enough. At Overhead Roofing, we specialize in tile roof replacement services that combine old-world aesthetics with modern engineering to provide a lifetime of security.
“weak link” in the system is typically the underlayment. This waterproof membrane sits beneath the tiles and acts as the primary barrier against moisture. Over decades of exposure to the intense California sun, this material can become brittle and lose its ability to shed water.
When the underlayment fails, water can begin to rot the wood decking and rafters long before you see a leak on your ceiling. Our tile roof replacement process involves a comprehensive “tear-off” where we remove the existing tiles and aging felt, inspect the wooden substrate for structural integrity, and install a modern, high-performance waterproofing system that meets or exceeds the California Building Standards Commission requirements.
Before the first tile is moved, we assess the "dead load" capacity of your home. Tile is heavy, clay and concrete can weigh between 600 and 1,100 pounds per square (100 sq. ft.). If you are upgrading from a lighter material to tile, our skilled craftsmen ensure your rafters and walls are engineered to support the weight safely.
We carefully remove the old tiles and dispose of them responsibly. Once the deck is exposed, we look for dry rot, termite damage, or sagging. Replacing damaged plywood at this stage is essential; a new roof is only as strong as the wood it sits upon. This focus on foundational integrity is what differentiates a standard job from an Overhead Roofing project.
We utilize premium, self-adhering modified bitumen underlayments or high-strength synthetic felts. Unlike the thin paper used in decades past, these modern materials are tear-resistant and provide a secondary layer of protection that can withstand even the heaviest seasonal rains.
The layout of a tile roof is a mathematical art. We calculate the "exposure" and "overlap" to ensure perfect water runoff. We use corrosion-resistant fasteners and high-quality flashing around chimneys and valleys, areas where most roof failures begin. Our proficient installation teams adhere to the strict guidelines set by the Tile Roofing Industry Alliance, ensuring your warranty remains fully intact.

William and Mike from Overhead Roofing Inc came highly recommended, and now I know why. They handled the repairs quickly and thoroughly, and even checked nearby spots without being asked. Sherry from the office made billing and follow-up a breeze. I’ll be using them again for a full re-roof in the futurePosted on Patricia SanchezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. These people who save animals are amazing!

Great, thank youPosted on darkest flowerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our office in Sierra Madre started having ceiling leaks. Overhead Roofing Inc sent Sean and Mike, who discovered the issue was actually with the parapet wall flashing. They fixed it and gave us solid maintenance recommendations. Tammi kept everything on time and within budget. Their knowledge and clarity made a huge difference.
