Burlington Roof Pros provides professional tile roofing in Burlington, NC for residential and commercial properties across Alamance County and the central Piedmont. We service tile in Burlington and we very rarely recommend installing it new. The reason has nothing to do with how tile performs, which is excellent, and everything to do with what happens in the week after one single tile breaks.
There is no meaningful tile supply in this part of North Carolina. Profiles, colors and barrel radii all get ordered in from out of state, and a discontinued run may not be orderable anywhere at any price. A cracked field tile that would be a same-day fix in Phoenix becomes a tarp, a special order and a six-week wait here, with a claim sitting open the whole time, with the interior drying out underneath.
Ice makes that worse rather than better. A hairline crack a tile carries harmlessly through August takes on water, freezes and opens. Our winters cross the freeze-thaw line repeatedly instead of staying frozen for months, so a tile roof in Alamance County cycles far more often than an identical roof in a genuinely cold climate ever does, and cycling is what breaks tile. Concrete profiles spall at the exposed edge for the same reason.
If you already own tile, the genuinely useful news is that the tile is not your waterproofing. The underlayment is. Tile sheds the bulk of the water and buys the membrane underneath shade and time, which means a tile roof is finished the day the felt underneath gives out, with perfectly sound tile still sitting on top of it and decades left in the clay.
So the work we actually do on these is lift and relay. We batten out a slope, stack and label the tile, strip the failed underlayment, install a new membrane detailed properly at the valleys and penetrations, and set the original tile back with broken pieces swapped from salvage. We keep salvaged stock from previous jobs precisely because ordering takes so long, and the leftovers go to you at the end.
For anyone drawn to the look on a new build, stone-coated steel or a profiled metal panel gives you a comparable roofline from the street, weighs a small fraction as much on framing that was never designed for tile, and can be repaired out of stock held inside the state. That is our recommendation and we will put the reasoning in writing.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — spike-and-ferrule hangers pulled through by glaze weight, hidden hangers screwed on twenty-four inch centers, five-quarter primed fascia stock back-primed on six faces, 0.032 aluminum drip edge lapped over the underlayment, eave protection membrane run well up the deck at the overhang, ring-shank nails set flush in the marked nail zone — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Burlington and nearby communities including Graham, Mebane, Elon, Gibsonville.

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 spike-and-ferrule hangers pulled through by glaze weight, hidden hangers screwed on twenty-four inch centers, five-quarter primed fascia stock back-primed on six faces, 0.032 aluminum drip edge lapped over the underlayment, 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 Burlington 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 Alamance County and the central Piedmont means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Burlington Chooses Burlington Roof Pros
- ✓We price the perimeter of your roof separately from the plane, so you can see what the part that actually fails in winter costs
- ✓Gutters go up on hidden hangers at twenty-four inch centers, screwed into rafter tails, because ice weighs many times what rain does
- ✓We do not sell gutter guards in this county, and we will explain the ice bridge that is the reason
- ✓Metal roofs get ice retention above doors, walkways, gas meters and heat pumps, which almost nobody in North Carolina specifies
The standards behind tile roofing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The tile roofing work we do in Burlington follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
Every tile roofing project in Burlington gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
