Metairie Roof Pros provides professional tile roofing in Metairie, LA for residential and commercial properties across Jefferson Parish. There is very little tile in Metairie and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise. Where it exists it is usually on a nineteen-twenties or thirties house near the older ridge streets, or on a stucco addition somebody built to look Mediterranean in the eighties.
When we are called to tile, the problem is almost never the tile. Clay and concrete tile outlive the membrane beneath them by decades, and the membrane is the actual roof. So the correct job is nearly always a relay. Whole tile lifts off in stacks, the membrane beneath is stripped and renewed, the field goes back down, and you buy new pieces only for whatever cracked in handling.
That is a slower and more careful job than a shingle reroof and it costs accordingly, but it is far cheaper than a replacement and it keeps a roof that suits the house. We will tell you the breakage estimate honestly before we start, because on brittle sixty-year-old concrete tile it can run high enough to change the decision. We would rather quote an honest range than a low number twice.
The documentation load is where tile gets genuinely expensive. A FORTIFIED tile roof needs certified test reports for the tile product, for the structural supports, for the adhesive foam if any is used, and for the underlayment, plus design uplift pressures per zone and cap sheet photographs on every elevation. Clay hip and ridge set over asphalt shingle has its own approval requirement under a separate technical bulletin.
Put bluntly, on a tile roof the paperwork can cost more than the tile. If designation is your goal and the house is not already tile, we would steer you elsewhere. If the house is tile and you love it, we will do the relay properly and treat the designation as a separate conversation you may reasonably decline. There is no shame in owning a handsome roof without a certificate.
One local caution. Tile is heavy, and a good many Metairie additions were framed light and shallow by whoever owned the house at the time. Before anyone quotes you tile on an addition, somebody should look at the framing spacing and member size in the attic. We do that first, at no charge, and occasionally the answer is no.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — geo-tagged photographs of bare roof sheathing, 8D ring-shank deck nails shot against a tape measure, attic-side nail spacing photographs between consecutive trusses, taped sheathing seams beneath a wide-roll underlayment, twenty-six gauge galvanized drip edge replaced new on every tear-off, self-adhered starter strip bonded to the eave metal — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Metairie and nearby communities including New Orleans, Kenner, Marrero, LaPlace.

Materials, equipment and how we do tile roofing
The difference between tile roofing that lasts and tile roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with geo-tagged photographs of bare roof sheathing, 8D ring-shank deck nails shot against a tape measure, attic-side nail spacing photographs between consecutive trusses, taped sheathing seams beneath a wide-roll underlayment, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Metairie job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Jefferson Parish means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Metairie Chooses Metairie Roof Pros
- ✓We wait for the permit to issue before anything comes off, because Act 422 of 2025 made starting early a licensing violation rather than a scheduling shortcut
- ✓The deck stays open long enough to photograph properly, from above with a tape measure and from inside the attic, so the attachment can be proved later
- ✓You receive the same file the parish receives, organized by address, so the record survives whichever contractor you use next
- ✓We quote the plain reroof and the documented FORTIFIED version side by side, with the evaluator's hold points already written into the schedule
The standards behind tile roofing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The tile roofing work we do in Metairie follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
Every tile roofing project in Metairie gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
