Concrete tile suits Spring Valley buildings designed for the weight; laying it on framing that was not is a structural question first.
Realistically, cost on a Spring Valley roof comes down to size, pitch, how many layers come off, and what the deck looks like underneath. In practice, itemised, itemised estimates let Spring Valley property owners compare bids properly rather than guessing at what is included. Square footage is only half the cost of a Spring Valley roof; pitch, access and layer count move the number as much.
