Is a tile roof worth the cost in Tecate?

In Tecate, tile is often the long-game choice, concrete and clay tile last 40 to 50 years and shrug off UV that chews through shingle. The tile itself frequently outlives the underlayment beneath it, which is why a lift-and-relay at $14,500 to $24,000 is a common mid-life project rather than a full tile replacement.

My tile roof leaks, do I need all new tile?

Usually not. On most Tecate tile roofs the tile is fine and the underlayment beneath has failed. A lift-and-relay pulls the tile, installs new high-temp underlayment, and relays the same tile, far cheaper than new tile. New tile is only needed when the tile itself is widely cracked or discontinued.
