If the foundation of a house is one of the most important parts of a house, the roof of our house is equally or more important in the structure of the house. It is very necessary that we intelligently choose a roofing material that protects and is also made of the right material.

Tile roofs consist of the directional placement of individual pieces that cover a structure. This is when we could start calling our structure a roof. A roof provides you with security, and also means a long-term saving, as there will be very little maintenance work that you will have to do.
However, the tiles are more than just a simple detail in the construction, they are the functional material that will protect the exterior of your home. There are many reasons to choose a clay tile roof. Today we are going to give you some basic notions about this type of tile and explain the pros and cons of using clay tile for your roof.
Tiles are ceramic pieces made by firing selected clays. According to the shape in their construction they can be distinguished from two types: the curved tiles and the flat tiles. In our factory we are experts in the construction of both types, and we also manufacture the clay tiles in the shape of an “S”.
