The color of clay tile runs all the way through the material rather than sitting on top as a coating, so a clay roof in Flower Mound looks the same in year forty as it did in year four. Clay is lighter than concrete tile but more brittle, costs more, and rewards installers who handle it with care. On architecture designed for it, nothing else looks right. Cedar Crest offers a free written estimate for clay tile, and the inspection we perform is documented with photos. We do not waive deductibles, since Texas law prohibits it, and we are not a public adjuster.
Clay tile and Flower Mound storms
Brittleness is the question clay has to answer in Flower Mound. Hail an inch or larger has fallen within 7 miles of the city on 34 days since 2006, and 15 of those days brought golf-ball stones or bigger. The record is 4.25 inches, set on June 11, 2023. Big stones can crack tile, so our post-storm checks include the attic side as well as the surface. Framing is the other half. Flower Mound’s homes are mostly from 1980 through 2009, with a median year of 1997, and clay belongs on the ones built with its weight and style in mind. We serve Denton County and send the same crews to Highland Village and Double Oak.
