New Braunfels Roof Pros provides professional tile roofing in New Braunfels, TX for residential and commercial properties across the southern Hill Country. We install tile, and we talk more people out of it than into it. A concrete tile roof weighs six to eleven pounds a square foot, where architectural shingles sit under three, and most tract framing on this corridor was never engineered to carry that.
Trusses drawn for a shingle load do not simply hold more weight because the tile looks good. Adding tile to a house framed for shingles means an engineer, and usually sistered members, extra bracing or a purlin system. That work costs more than the tile and none of it shows, which is why it gets skipped and then discovered later by a sagging ridge line. An engineer's letter costs less than discovering the problem later.
Where tile belongs here is on the custom homes above the river and out toward the ranches, where the framing was drawn for it and the architecture asks for it. Barrel tile over limestone, or a flat concrete profile on a low-pitched roof, looks right in a way panel and shingle do not, and it will outlast both by decades. Those roofs also tend to have the pitch and the overhangs tile wants.
On a tile roof the tile is cladding. The roof is the underlayment beneath it, and that is what fails first. Two-ply modified bitumen or a high-temperature self-adhered sheet, properly lapped, with metal in the valleys and at every headwall. When a tile roof leaks here at twenty years, the tile is usually fine and the felt underneath is gone. Battens get counter-battened where the pitch is low, so water has a path out.
That produces a repair we do often and a phrase worth knowing: a lift and relay. Tile comes off in stacks, underlayment is replaced, broken pieces are swapped out of the stack, and the same tile goes back down. It costs a fraction of a replacement and it resets the clock on the layer that actually matters. We stack on the ground rather than on the roof, which matters on framing this old.
Individual repairs are mostly about walking. Cracked field tiles, slipped ridge pieces and failed mortar at hips are simple to fix and easy to multiply if the person up there steps in the wrong place. We work off foam pads and load paths over the battens, and we carry matching profiles rather than substituting whatever the yard has. Clay and concrete profiles are not interchangeable, and we bring the right one to the house.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — 24-gauge striated standing seam panel, PBR exposed-fastener panel, floating clips at panel mid-span, bonded EPDM washers under fastener heads, high-temperature self-adhered underlayment, butyl tape sidelap sealant — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve New Braunfels and nearby communities including Seguin, San Marcos, Kyle, Schertz.

Materials, equipment and how we do tile roofing
The difference between tile roofing that lasts and tile roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with 24-gauge striated standing seam panel, PBR exposed-fastener panel, floating clips at panel mid-span, bonded EPDM washers under fastener heads, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every New Braunfels job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the southern Hill Country means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
