How to Know If You Need Tile Roof Repair

A strong, beautiful tile roof can last decades—but only with proper care. At Certified Roofing Services Portland, we help homeowners detect roofing problems early and fix them before they become expensive disasters.

But how do you know when your tile roof needs repair? Here are the most common warning signs that indicate it’s time to call a professional roofer.

???? 1. Cracked or Broken Tiles

Roof tiles can crack due to age, weather, or impact from debris. If left unchecked, these small damages allow water to seep in, damaging the roof deck or insulation. Regular inspection helps detect these issues early. Learn more about what happens during a proper roof inspection here.

???? 2. Leaks or Water Stains

Have you noticed brown spots on your ceiling or damp walls? These stains are often caused by water penetrating through damaged or shifted tiles. It's a clear sign that your tile roof needs attention.

???? 3. Moss, Mold, or Algae Growth

Moisture buildup from poor drainage or shaded areas leads to growth of moss and algae. These aren't just cosmetic issues—they can actually deteriorate the roof surface and allow more moisture to get through.

???? 4. Lifted or Loose Tiles

Strong winds or improper installation may cause tiles to lift. Once tiles shift, water and debris can easily enter your roofing system, accelerating its deterioration.

⏰ When Should You Repair Your Tile Roof?

• Immediately if you notice any of the above issues.

• Replace damaged tiles to avoid deeper structural problems.

• Re-seal your roof tiles every 3–7 years for better water resistance and durability.
