Concrete tile suits Placentia buildings designed for the weight; laying it on framing that was not is a structural question soonest. We see it on Placentia roofs every week. On most jobs, reclaimed tile can be matched on Placentia heritage roofs, but the underlayment beneath it should always be new. Worth knowing before you sign anything.

Skylight seals on Placentia roofs want checking annually, as they fail quietly and drip into the ceiling cavity.
9Why Placentia Roofs Age the Way They Do
Dry offshore winds reach Placentia through autumn, lifting shingle tabs and ridge caps in the direction roofs are least lapped to resist. Low-slope sections in Placentia hold heat worst, which is why coatings and reflective membranes pay for themselves here. Expansion and contraction loosens fixings on Placentia roofs long before the material itself gives out. Worth knowing before you sign anything. Summer high temperatures is the main ageing force on a Placentia roof. Surface temperatures run far above the air reading, day once past day, for months. Tile underlayment in Placentia dries out and goes brittle while the tile above it still looks new from the street. This holds across Orange County. Thermal cycling does the damage in Placentia — hot afternoons, cool nights, and materials expanding and contracting against their fixings all year. Orange County is no different.
Coatings suit Placentia buildings with a intact deck and a tired surface — they buy seasons, but they do not fix water already trapped in the insulation. Underlayment choice matters more than covering choice on a Placentia tile roof, given that that is the layer doing the waterproofing. TPO and modified bitumen both work on Placentia low-slope roofs, and the choice in most cases comes down to detailing rather than the sheet. Orange County is no different.
