The Importance of Timely Clay Tile Roof Repairs
Clay tile roofs are admired for their aesthetic beauty, durability, and long lifespan. But even the strongest roofs can face problems over time, especially in climates like San Diego’s. Cracked tiles, worn-out underlayment, and improper repairs can all lead to serious issues like water damage, mold growth, and structural deterioration.
Ignoring roof problems, even small ones, can quickly escalate into expensive repairs or full replacements. That’s why it’s essential to trust an experienced roofing contractor like TWM Roofing for fast and effective service.

What Makes Clay Tile Roofs Unique in San Diego
San Diego’s Mediterranean climate presents a mix of hot sun, coastal humidity, and occasional heavy rains. This combination makes certain aspects of clay tile roofing particularly important:
- Sun Exposure & UV Damage: Long-term sun exposure can cause clay tiles to become brittle and crack.
- Salt Air Near the Coast: Coastal properties face accelerated deterioration of underlayment and fasteners due to salt-laden air.
- Heavy Rain Events: While rare, when rain hits, any weakness in your tile roof can result in leaks.
The Underlayment is the Real Hero
Although clay tiles are the visible part of the roof, the underlayment is what keeps your home dry. This waterproof barrier sits beneath the tiles and directs water away from your home. Unfortunately, underlayment doesn’t last forever. While the tiles may last 50-100 years, the underlayment often needs replacement after 20 to 30 years.
TWM Roofing uses premium-grade underlayment materials and expert installation techniques to ensure your roof system functions exactly as it should.
Common Issues We Repair
- Broken or Slipped Tiles: Often caused by foot traffic, storms, or age.
- Worn or Torn Underlayment: A leading cause of leaks.
- Improper Past Repairs: Unfortunately, many roofs are repaired by unlicensed contractors or roofers selling “quick fix” patches that often cause more harm than good.
- Debris Blockage: Leaves and branches can obstruct water flow, leading to water buildup and eventual leaks.
Matching Clay Tiles: An Art and a Science
If your roof is older, finding exact tile matches can be difficult due to discontinued models or fading. Our team knows how to source or color-match tiles and can strategically move existing tiles from less visible areas to maintain a uniform appearance.
Permits & Local Compliance
In San Diego, extensive roof repairs often require permits, especially for large projects or structural changes. TWM Roofing handles all the paperwork and inspections, ensuring that every job meets local building codes and HOA requirements.
Don’t Let Small Issues Turn into Major Problems
A minor crack today can be a major leak tomorrow. Scheduling regular inspections and prompt repairs is the best way to extend the life of your roof and protect your home. Our experts recommend biannual inspections, especially after extreme weather.
Fragile but Long-Lasting
Clay tiles are both durable and delicate. They are not meant to be walked on and can crack under pressure. TWM’s technicians are trained to move safely across tile roofs without causing further damage.
