Clay and concrete tile give Lewisville homes a roof that shrugs off UV and defines Mediterranean and Spanish architecture, with structural weight requirements that make installer experience non-negotiable.
Tile’s strengths are longevity and indifference to sun; its demands are weight and detail. A tile roof can outlast several shingle cycles, but the structure must carry it, the underlayment beneath has its own service life, and walking it the wrong way breaks it. In Lewisville, tile suits homes designed for it.
Re-tile projects need an installer who knows that the underlayment, not the tile, is usually what actually failed. Cedar Crest provides free written estimates and photo-documented inspections for tile work, never waives an insurance deductible because Texas law bars it, and does not serve as a public adjuster.
Tile Roofing Decisions in Lewisville
Hail is a regular visitor here. Since 2006, 14 days have brought golf-ball-size or larger stones within 7 miles of Lewisville, and the largest measured 3.0 inches on June 11, 2023. Tile can crack under stones like that, and a cracked tile exposes the underlayment it was protecting, which is why we inspect both layers after a storm.
Lewisville’s housing comes mostly from the 1980 to 2009 era, 63 percent of it, with a median build year of 1997. Tile on those homes is usually a deliberate design choice, paired with a framing check before any material is ordered. We handle tile across Denton County, including nearby Highland Village and Lake Dallas.

Common questions about tile roofing in Lewisville
How long does a tile roof last in Lewisville?
The tile itself can serve fifty-plus years; the underlayment beneath typically needs renewal decades sooner. Many "failed" tile roofs are underlayment failures wearing a tile disguise.
Can hail break roof tiles?
Large hail can crack tile, and DFW is honest hail country. Cracked tiles are individually replaceable, which is part of tile's long-life logic; keeping attic spares from your original lot is smart.
Do you install this on shops and outbuildings near Lewisville?
Yes. Barns, workshops, and outbuildings are first-class projects out here, not afterthoughts, and the material conversation (usually metal-forward) covers them alongside the house.
