Clay Tile Roofing for Montrose's Spanish Revival Homes

Clay Tile Roofing in Montrose

Montrose renovates constantly, and its historic tile roofs sit in the middle of that churn. We protect and restore original tile through remodels and bring neglected rooflines back rather than tearing them off.

Montrose was platted when Spanish Revival was the height of fashion, and it shows: stucco walls, arched openings, and genuine barrel and mission tile roofs from the 1920s survive across the neighborhood — from the grand homes of Courtlandt Place to modest Mediterranean cottages tucked between newer townhomes. Much of this tile is approaching its hundredth year, typically still sound as tile while the felt and flashings beneath it finish their working lives.

The neighborhood's constant renovation cycle is the biggest threat to its tile. We're regularly called after another trade — painters, HVAC installers, solar surveyors — has walked a fragile field and left a trail of cracked tiles, or after a remodel contractor priced "just replacing all that old tile" because they didn't know how to work with it. Our renovation service protects the roof through construction: walk pads and access routes for other trades, tile salvage and storage during structural work, and relay when the project dries in.

For the neglected examples — and Montrose has some, on homes that sat as rentals for decades — restoration usually beats replacement. A lift-and-relay with modern underlayment, renewed flashings, and reclaimed-tile infill returns a weathered 1920s roofline to service for decades, at a cost that preserves rather than erases what makes these houses worth owning.
