Expert Concrete S-Tile Services in Lake County
Concrete S-tile (also called double-roman or barrel tile) is Florida's most popular tile roofing style. The distinctive curved profile creates the Mediterranean aesthetic that defines Florida architecture, while concrete's durability handles our demanding climate for 50+ years.
At Pro Specialty Services, we install concrete S-tile systems with proper underlayment, battens, and hurricane-rated fastening. The result is a beautiful, long-lasting roof that adds significant curb appeal and resale value to your home.
While concrete S-tile weighs more than other roofing materials, the trade-off is exceptional longevity, fire resistance, and the timeless look that complements Florida's Spanish and Mediterranean architecture.
Compare S-tile to other tile roofing options like flat tile or clay barrel tile. Learn about tile roof weight requirements and structural considerations.
Why Concrete S-Tile Is Florida's Favorite
The barrel profile creates natural ventilation channels that help cool your attic and reduce energy costs. Air flows beneath the curved tiles, carrying heat away from your roof deck—a significant advantage in Florida's climate.
Concrete's density provides excellent protection against flying debris during hurricanes. When properly installed with hurricane clips, concrete S-tile roofs have proven their ability to withstand major storms.
The aesthetic impact is substantial. Concrete S-tile immediately elevates a home's appearance and adds 5-10% to resale value. It's the look that says 'Florida' without the premium price of clay tile.

Common Questions
With proper installation, concrete S-tile roofs typically last 50+ years. The tiles themselves can last 75-100 years, though underlayment may need replacement after 30-40 years.
Many Florida homes are built tile-ready. Homes not originally designed for tile may need structural reinforcement. We perform structural assessments and can coordinate any needed upgrades.
Both are excellent choices. Concrete costs less, offers more color options, and is slightly lighter. Clay has a more authentic look, typically lasts longer, and is more resistant to color fading. We can help you compare.
Yes, when properly installed with hurricane clips and code-required fastening. Concrete tile roofs have performed well through major hurricanes. The key is proper installation—not just the tile itself.
Minimal maintenance—occasional cleaning to prevent algae growth and inspection of ridge tiles and flashings. Unlike painted roofs, concrete tile never needs repainting.
The underlayment is the true waterproofing layer. We use premium self-adhering or dual-layer underlayment systems designed specifically for tile roofs. This underlayment typically needs replacement after 30-40 years.
