Commercial Tile Roofing vs Residential Tile Roofing
Besides the fact that a commercial tile roofing area is likely to be much larger than a residential tile roofing area, both need to be installed and maintained by a roofer with experience.
- The main difference in the roofs is that a commercial roof may have two or more different roof types, like a flat roof and a sloping roof. A commercial roofer will be required to join the sloping and flat roof, where waterproofing is key.
- Business owners upgrading their roofs may require the tile roof replacement of an existing flat-roofed area. Installing commercial tile roofing thus requires certain structural work to support the heavy tiles, often to be signed off by an engineer.
- Residential tile roofing on existing houses from time to time requires shingle roof repair and tile roof repair to be ongoing as part of a maintenance program, which lengthens the life of a roof and lessens the chance of a tile roof replacement.
