Welcome to A1 Roofing Reading, the premier roofing company in Reading, Berkshire, South East England. With over 20 years of experience in the roofing industry, we have been providing top-quality roofing solutions to our clients in Reading and the surrounding areas. One of the most common questions that we get asked is, "What are roof tiles made of in Reading?". In this landing page, we will answer this question and provide a comprehensive guide on roof tiles, their materials and types.

Introduction to Roof Tiles

A roof tile is a flat, rectangular or curved piece of material that is laid in overlapping rows as a covering for a roof. Roof tiles have been used for centuries as a durable and practical roofing material. They are made of various materials and come in many shapes, sizes and colours to match the architecture of the building.

Types of Roof Tiles

There are different types of roof tiles that A1 Roofing Reading use in our roofing projects. The most common types of roof tiles are:

Clay Tiles

Clay tiles are the most traditional and oldest type of roof tiles. They are made from natural clay that is shaped, fired and glazed to produce a hard and durable tile. They are available in various shapes, sizes, and colours making them versatile and suitable for all types of roofing applications. They can last over 100 years if properly installed and maintained.

Slate Tiles

Slate tiles are made from natural stone that is split into thin, flat sheets. They come in various sizes, colours and textures, and have a unique and elegant appearance. Slate tiles are very durable and can last over 100 years. They are naturally waterproof, fire-resistant and require minimal maintenance.

Concrete Tiles

Concrete tiles are made from a mixture of cement, sand, and water that is moulded to produce a tile. They are available in a wide range of colours, shapes, and sizes, and can easily mimic the look of other tile materials such as clay or slate. Concrete tiles are durable, long-lasting and require little maintenance.

Materials Used in Roof Tiles

Roof tiles are made from different materials, each with unique characteristics that determine their suitability for various roofing applications. The most common materials used in roof tiles include:

Clay

Clay is a natural material that is abundant in nature. It has been used to make roof tiles for centuries due to its durability, resistance to weathering, and attractiveness. The clay used in roof tiles is usually sourced from within the UK, reducing environmental impact and transportation costs.

Slate

Slate is a natural stone that is extracted from quarries. It is a dense and durable material that has natural waterproofing properties, making it ideal for roofing applications. Welsh slate is amongst the best in the world and is highly sought after due to its quality and durability.

Concrete

Concrete is an artificial material that is made by mixing cement, sand, and water. It is a popular roofing material due to its strength, durability, ease of manufacture, and cost-effectiveness. Concrete tiles can be molded into various shapes, sizes, and colours to match the building's architecture and design.

The Cost of Roof Tiles

The cost of roof tiles varies depending on several factors, including the type of tile, its material, size, and quality. The following is a breakdown of the cost of different types of roof tiles:

Clay Tiles

Clay tiles are the most expensive type of roof tiles. They can cost between 50 and 100 per square meter. The cost of clay tiles is higher due to the cost of manufacturing, transportation, and installation.

Slate Tiles

Slate tiles are the second most expensive type of roof tiles. They can cost between 30 and 90 per square meter. The cost of slate tiles is higher due to the cost of sourcing and manufacturing.

Concrete Tiles

Concrete tiles are the most affordable type of roof tiles. They can cost between 20 and 50 per square meter. The cost of concrete tiles is lower due to the cost of manufacture, transportation, and installation.
