Concrete tile delivers tile aesthetics and longevity at a friendlier price than clay, the pragmatic tile choice for most Aubrey homes designed to carry it.
Concrete tile is tougher against impact than clay, comes in profiles that mimic barrel tile, slate, and shake, and costs meaningfully less. Its weight is the design constraint: the heaviest common residential roofing, demanding a structure rated for it. Where the framing supports it, concrete tile is one of the best value-per-decade roofs a Aubrey home can wear.
We install and service concrete tile roofing across Aubrey and the surrounding DFW communities: free written estimates, documented inspections, and honest guidance on whether this system actually fits your home and budget.
How Aubrey changes the math
Concrete Tile Roofing behaves differently on Aubrey roofs than the brochure version suggests. Most of the housing went up in the last two decades, which means first-generation roofs aging out on the same schedule, block after block. Tile on that stock is a structural conversation before it is an aesthetic one: the deck and framing have to carry the load.
Aubrey handles roofing permits the way most Denton County cities do: required where structure or full replacement is involved, quick when the paperwork is right. We file it. Hail is the tax every DFW roof eventually pays, and big cores can crack concrete tile, which is why post-storm checks here include the attic side, not just the surface. We work this system in Denton and Lewisville as well; ask and we will point you at nearby examples with a few years of weather on them. The next step costs nothing: a documented inspection and a straight answer on whether this system fits.

Hail near Aubrey
Reported hail is less frequent around Aubrey: NOAA lists 10 days since 2006 with hail one inch or larger within 4 miles. Fewer reports can also reflect fewer storm spotters in smaller communities, so a quiet record is not a guarantee. Hail that size was reported in 9 of the last 20 years. The largest stones on record nearby measured 2.75 inches (baseball size) on April 3, 2014. The most recent report: 1.75-inch hail on April 8, 2024.
April 3, 2014: 2.75-inch hail (baseball size)

April 4, 2008: 1.75-inch hail (golf ball size)
May 16, 2022: 1.25-inch hail (half dollar size)

Common questions about concrete tile roofing in Aubrey
Is concrete tile too heavy for my Aubrey house?
That is a structural question with a real answer. Homes designed for tile carry it fine; converting a shingle-framed home to tile requires an engineering check first. We do not skip that step.
Does concrete tile fade?
Surface color mellows over the decades, and most owners consider aged concrete tile handsome. Unlike coatings on metal or asphalt, there is no film to peel; the color change is gradual and even.
Is upgrading from builder-grade shingles worth it in Aubrey?
Usually at the first replacement or claim: Class 4 impact-rated systems earn many Texas carriers' premium discounts, and newer communities' HOA standards generally approve them easily. The math works hardest on homes facing decades of DFW hail.
How often does hail hit Aubrey?
NOAA lists 10 days since 2006 with hail one inch or larger within 4 miles of Aubrey. Smaller communities have fewer storm spotters, so reports tend to undercount what actually falls. The most recent report was 1.75-inch hail on April 8, 2024.
How old are most homes in Aubrey?
The median home in Aubrey was built in 2013, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey. 10% of the city's housing units predate 1980 and 59% were built in 2010 or later. Many homes here still have their original builder-installed roof.
