Fortunately, roof tiles last for decades, but there comes a time when they need to be replaced. The main reasons for replacing roof tiles are roof leaks because they have become porous or damaged by storm damage, and heat loss.
How can you tell if your roof tiles need replacing? Tap them with your fingers. Do you hear a clear sound? Then your roof tiles are still in good condition. Do you hear a dull sound? Then they are most likely retaining moisture and there is a high risk of leaks.
You can also look for flakes of roof tiles in the gutter. This is an indication that the roof tiles have seen better days. Porous roof tiles also retain moisture, which serves as a good breeding ground for algae and moss. So if you see moss and algae on your roof, this may be an indication that your roof tiles need replacing.

Na lange tijd last te hebben gehad van een lekkage die meerdere bedrijven en aannemers niet konden verhelpen op aanraden van een vriend contact gezocht met Luciano. Fijne communicatie, niet opdringerig en duidelijk verhaal. Prijs kan aanvankelijk wat pittig overkomen maar het is het waard want je krijgt… Read more kwaliteit werk en nazorg geleverd. Na lood verlengen en daktrimmen vervangen probleem verholpen. Luciano belde ook terug om te vragen of de lekkage verholpen is; als later dakonderhoud nodig is weet ik wie ik moet hebben.
Cost of replacing roof tiles
The cost of roof repairs varies and depends on the type of roof tile, such as clay tiles and concrete tiles, and the size of your roof. Use our calculation tool to get a rough idea of what it will cost to replace your roof tiles at Dakspecialist Nederland.
Types of roof tiles on tiled roofs
Tiled roofs are covered with roof tiles, but not all roof tiles are the same. Roughly speaking, roof tiles can be divided into two types: concrete and ceramic roof tiles. However, there are thousands of different sizes and types.
Both types of roof tiles are poured or moulded. During this process, they are coloured with the appropriate ingredients and hardened. After colouring and hardening, your roof tiles are glazed if you choose this option.
We are happy to help you find the right tile for your roof. Have you already made your choice? No problem, we install almost all types of roof tiles. See our suppliers and partners. We offer a 12-year warranty on roof renovations.
Concrete roof tiles
Concrete roof tiles for tiled roofs are made from hardened cement. Concrete tiles do not need to be fired, which is better for CO2 emissions. Since concrete has been used more and more in construction, more and more different types of improved tiles have been developed. New innovations have also been added. These include different types of coatings: environmentally friendly, heat-resistant and air-purifying coatings.
Ceramic roof tiles
Ceramic roof tiles are made from river clay. This makes these roof tiles a purely natural product. The supply of raw materials is inexhaustible and nature itself continuously produces new clay. A kiln is used to produce the ceramic roof tiles.

1. If you are looking for the cheapest way to replace your roof tiles, concrete roof tiles are recommended. Concrete tiles are generally slightly cheaper than clay tiles, but they are also easier to lay and therefore cheaper. Concrete tiles are often slightly larger than clay tiles.
2. Concrete tiles are very dimensionally stable, which means that they hardly expand or shrink when exposed to temperature differences. Concrete tiles are also generally heavy, which is beneficial during the storms that often sweep across our country.
Are you interested in our services? When you hire us for your tiled roof, you are assured of professional workmanship. Please contact us to discuss the possibilities.
