Common Tile Roof Problems We Fix
Myrtle Beach's coastal climate creates unique challenges for tile roofs. We diagnose and repair all common tile roofing issues.
Cracked Tiles
Hairline cracks to complete fractures caused by impact, foot traffic, thermal expansion, or age. Cracked tiles allow water infiltration and must be replaced promptly.
Broken Tiles
Tiles shattered by falling branches, hail, or storm debris. We carefully remove broken pieces and install matching replacement tiles.
Slipped Tiles
Tiles that have shifted out of position due to wind uplift, failed fasteners, or deteriorated battens. Slipped tiles expose underlayment to weather.
Underlayment Failure
The waterproof membrane beneath tiles degrades after 20-30 years. We can replace underlayment while preserving and reinstalling original tiles.
Failed Flashing
Metal flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys corrodes in salt air. We replace with high-quality materials designed for coastal environments.
Moss & Algae Growth
Biological growth traps moisture against tiles, accelerating deterioration. We clean and treat tiles to prevent regrowth.
Signs You Need Tile Roof Repair
Visible Tile Damage
Cracked, chipped, or missing tiles visible from the ground or during roof inspection. Even small cracks can lead to significant water damage.
Water Stains Inside
Brown or yellow stains on ceilings or walls indicate water penetration through damaged tiles or failed underlayment.
Debris in Gutters
Finding tile fragments or granules in gutters suggests tiles are deteriorating and may need repair or replacement.
Sagging Roof Areas
Visible dips or sags in the roofline indicate potential structural issues or water damage to the roof deck beneath tiles.
Moss or Plant Growth
Vegetation growing on or between tiles indicates moisture retention that can damage tiles and underlayment over time.
Age Over 20 Years
While tiles last 50-100 years, underlayment typically needs replacement at 20-30 years. Regular inspections are essential for aging tile roofs.

Benefits of Tile Roofing in Myrtle Beach
Tile roofing remains one of the best long-term investments for coastal South Carolina homes. Proper repair preserves these advantages.
50-100+ Year Lifespan
Tile roofs can last a century with proper maintenance. Timely repairs prevent small issues from becoming major problems.
Hurricane Resistance
Properly installed tiles withstand winds up to 150 MPH. Regular maintenance ensures fasteners and underlayment remain secure.
Fire Resistant
Clay and concrete tiles are Class A fire rated - the highest rating available. They won't burn or spread flames.
Energy Efficient
Tile's thermal mass and air gap underneath naturally insulates, reducing cooling costs in Myrtle Beach summers.
Increased Home Value
Tile roofs add significant curb appeal and resale value. Well-maintained tile roofs are a major selling point.
Salt Air Resistant
Unlike metal, tile doesn't corrode in coastal environments. Perfect for Myrtle Beach's salty, humid climate.
Coastal Challenges for Tile Roofs in Myrtle Beach
The Grand Strand's coastal environment creates unique stresses on tile roofs that require specialized repair expertise.
Hurricane Winds
High winds can lift, shift, or break tiles. Our repairs restore wind resistance using proper fastening techniques.
Heavy Rainfall
Intense coastal storms can exploit any weakness. We ensure watertight repairs that handle heavy downpours.
UV Exposure
Intense sun degrades flashing and sealants faster. We use UV-resistant materials designed for our climate.
Salt Air
Salt accelerates metal flashing corrosion. We use marine-grade materials for lasting coastal performance.
Tile Roof Repair FAQs - Myrtle Beach
How much does tile roof repair cost in Myrtle Beach?
Tile roof repair costs vary based on the extent of damage, tile type, and accessibility. Minor repairs like replacing a few cracked tiles are less expensive than extensive underlayment restoration. We provide free estimates with transparent pricing - no hidden fees.
Can you repair just a few broken roof tiles or do I need a full replacement?
In most cases, we can repair individual broken or cracked tiles without replacing the entire roof. We stock common tile types and can source specialty tiles when needed. Full replacement is only recommended when there's extensive structural damage or the underlayment has failed across large areas.

Yes, we provide emergency tile roof repair services for storm damage. Hurricanes and severe weather can dislodge or break tiles, exposing your home to water damage. Contact us immediately after storm damage for rapid assessment and temporary protection.
