Tile roofs (clay and concrete) are uncommon in Northeast Ohio but Atlas Roofing services the Highland Heights homes that have them. Tile lasts 50+ years but requires specialty repair when individual tiles crack or underlayment fails.
Material selection in Highland Heights is informed by the local architecture — primarily 1960s-70s colonials, ranches, newer 1990s-2000s colonials. The right shingle profile and color makes a real difference on these homes.
Highland Heights' housing skews newer than the inner-ring suburbs to the west — most homes along Wilson Mills, Highland, and Bishop are 1960s-2000s, so tear-offs typically only have one or two layers and decking is generally in good shape.
The 1990s-2000s colonials with steep-pitched roofs and front-facing gables need careful kickout flashing at the wall-roof intersections, which is the most common point of failure we see.
Tile is heavier than asphalt and was historically uncommon in our region. Most tile roofs in Highland Heights are on Mediterranean or Spanish-style homes from the early 20th century.
Yes — individual tile replacement is the standard repair. Color matching for older tiles can be tricky.
