Replacing some concrete roof tiles

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I had a couple of cracked roof tiles that needed to be replaced, so I tried my hand at replacing them. I already had several extra roof tiles that I believe are from the builder, so I just used those to replace the broken tiles even though the colors on the roof have faded some.

    Thanks a ton for this video. Solar installers cracked a few concrete tiles, and I was able to very easily replace them with the information from your video... and I didn't even need to wear full Y swag to get it done!

    I actually used crazy glue to glue broken pieces to each other without removing broken tile. Lol. That was a few years ago - still has held up. I wish I knew them how to do this

    Regarding the chipped corner tiles; typically chipped tiles are not a concern unless they extend beyond the 3" head lap. If they do extent near or past the lap, they should be replaced as water can wick and influence the felt. Repeated moisture influence will cause the felt to deterioration prematurely.

    There is no way this will work on my roof in Florida. Each tile is secured with two stainless screws so to push ones up you would need to break the tiles. Also if you don't have some method to secure the tiles after reinstalling the new ones they just slide down over time and you have to fix them again. I have had a roofer glue them but that also goes bad over time. Love the roof but repair is a nightmare.

    This is a realistic roofer... use liquid nails and make sure its for exterior / uses for masonary which will work for the tile chips

    I stepped in the middle of the tile, At the bottom and at the top, the tile is directly supported underneath, but in the middle its hollow so thats the weak spot.

    If you are in a larger city, you can go to what roofers call the Boneyard. These are where builder and roofer sell back extra unused tiles for display and reselling.. it helped with you have an intact sample of what you have, manufacturer is often printed in the bottom of the tile, boneyard people may by helpful in pointing in the right direction and direct you to the general vicinity on where to drive, they you look and handle the tiles that look good, I would suggest after all that effort you buy some extras, because if it happened once, it’s going to happen again.
