In the south Florida cities of Boynton Beach & Lake Worth there are many communities that you will see almost exclusively tile roofs. One of the major selling points besides aesthetics to installing a tile roof is the durability and lifespan it provides when compared to other types of roof like shingle, metal or slate. However, even tile roofs are still susceptible to damage and will need repairs from time to time.

Flashing is imperative to maintaining a proper roof structure. The role it plays is crucial in keeping the flow of water away from the deck of the roof and onto the tiles for proper draining. Flashing that is not installed properly is usually where there will be problems.
Cap tiles are attached with a very strong adhesive, but over-time they can break loose. When this happens it can leave the roof susceptible to leaks.
As an underlayment there is a waterproofing membrane. With time this can deteriorate and then need to be replaced by a roofing professional.
Most roofs have valley areas, these areas are where debris will accumulate, usually due to a botched flashing installation. When enough debris piles up it can cause water to back up under the tiles. The proper process here is to remove the tiles from this area, then remove as much of the debris as possible, then reinstall the tiles back.
Broken tiles on the roof are easy areas for water damage to take place. Tiles break on a roof for many reasons it can be from someone walking on the roof, or tree damage, or wind damage. Down here in Palm Beach County FL all of these things can happen and result in damaged or broken roof tiles.
Missing Tiles -Perhaps you didn’t know this but even a single missing tile can end up becoming a major roof problem. Missing tiles need to be fixed immediately.
Visible Leaks - This is the most common. If you have a visible leak in your home, get it handled ASAP! Roof leaks can lead to a slew of other problems.
Broken & Damaged Tiles - The major concern many people have is how their roof looks with visibly broken or damaged tiles. However broken tiles can be a sign of bigger problems and if left broken can lead to problems if they don't already exist.
Damaged Underneath Layers - Underneath a tiled roof are layers to help maintain the roofs structural integrity. Often if these layers are damaged it is either due to time or a previous bad installation or repair job.
No matter the issue, it is always wise to find a professional roof repair contractor rather than trying to fix the issue yourself.
