Concrete and clay barrel tile systems provide energy efficiency, protect against some of the harshest elements in Florida, last longer than shingles and provide a variety of color and shape options to give your home the look you’ve always dreamt of.

Clay tiles provide a very uniform and more natural look compared to concrete. Two of the most popular looks synonymous with Palm Beach County homes are the Spanish-S and Barcelona styles. Clay tiles are fade-resistant and long-lasting and maintain their ability to waterproof your roof without absorbing water, which can lead to algae growth. Concrete tiles provide a more modern look since they are produced using a machine, giving them a very clean and streamlined appearance. Stronger than clay tiles, concrete tiles have a lifespan of 30-60 years if maintained properly.
SeaBreeze Roofing Company offers concrete and clay barrel tile roofs that are not only aesthetically beautiful but also provide your home with a variety of benefits to consider when choosing the perfect material for your new roof.
