Cracked tile?Slipped tile?Roof leaks under it?
A tile roof keeps water out with the layer under the tile. Roof tile isn’t fully waterproof, so some water gets past it in driving rain. The underlayment (often felt) and the flashing (sheet metal at valleys and walls) stop that water short of your ceiling.
Water damage such as ceiling stains or a musty attic, and dust or grit under the eaves, can all point to a failing underlayment. So can torn felt or black grit in your gutters.
A crew cracks more tile than it fixes.
The Tile Roofing Institute says to keep weight on the head-lap, the lower 3 to 4 inches where tiles overlap, or on secured plywood or roof pads. Ask any roofer how they’ll walk your roof.
You’re told it needs a whole new roof when a few tiles would do.

What callers askabout tile roof repair
How much does tile roof repair cost in El Paso?
It depends on the roof. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso prices each tile repair after a free inspection. How many tiles, concrete or clay, whether a matching tile exists, and the age of the underlayment set the price.
Can you replace just a few broken tiles?
Yes. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso repairs broken tile and the underlayment with it. The Tile Roofing Institute’s steps for a broken tile end with repairing the underlayment, so the job goes past the tile you can see.
Can I walk on my tile roof?
Best not. “Walking on roofing tile should be avoided and only done with extreme caution,” the Tile Roofing Institute says. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso inspects for free, so you can stay on the ground.
Does a tile roof repair need an insurance claim?
No. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso gives every caller a free inspection and a free written estimate, insurance claim or not.

What a tile repaircan and can’t fix
Tile often outlasts the felt under it, so the age of your underlayment decides how far a repair can go. A repair fixes the spots it touches, and it can’t renew the felt across the whole roof.
A tile repair can fix
- Cracked, broken, or slipped tile, with the underlayment under the broken tile repaired.
- Flashing that no longer seals at a valley, a wall, or a pipe.
- A leak in one spot on a roof whose underlayment still has years left.
A tile repair can’t fix
- Brittle felt across the whole roof. After 20 or more years on original felt, roofers often advise lifting the tile and relaying it over new underlayment.
- An exact match on a discontinued tile, unless matching tile turns up in salvage or surplus.
- Damage nobody can see yet. A repair can grow once tile is lifted and the felt shows.
The Tile Roofing Institute says discontinued tiles “are not dimensionally or mechanically compatible with current production profiles.” Mixing them can mean interlock trouble and code problems in many jurisdictions, so an old profile can limit where new tile goes.
What El Paso, TXweather does to a tile roof
Sun and heat
Felt underlayment dries brittle in desert heat, then cracks and curls at flashing and valleys. A broken tile lets the sun reach the felt.
Wind
Roof tile relies on its interlocks. The Tile Roofing Institute warns of wind resistance issues when discontinued tile is mixed with current tile.
Monsoon
Driving rain can push water past the tile, so a torn spot in the felt can sit dry for months and then leak during a monsoon cell.
Hail
Concrete tile took 1-inch hail with no breaks. Four of 13 panels broke at 1.25 inches and seven of 13 by 1.5. Clay S-tile held at 1.25.
Weather figures from the National Weather Service in El Paso. Hail figures from Haag hail tests. Tile guidance from the Tile Roofing Institute.

How long does a tile roof last?
The tile, 50 years or more. Arizona roofers put underlayment at about 15 to 25 years in their heat, so the felt can go first. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso inspects tile roofs for free across El Paso.
Does insurance cover hail damage on tile?
Your policy decides. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso documents the damage and writes the estimate. Curved corner cracks on concrete tile can be old installation stress, not hail, so what the cracks look like matters.
