Tile Roof Repair - Damaged Fascia, Decking, and Underlayment Replaced

Most tile roof problems don't start with the tile. They start underneath - with saturated decking, failing underlayment, or rotted fascia that's been quietly getting worse for years. By the time a homeowner notices something is off, the damage has usually already spread.

Here's what we were working with on this one. The fascia was deteriorating and showing serious signs of moisture damage. The roof decking beneath the tile had taken on water and needed to come out. That's not a patch job - that's dig-in-and-fix-it-right work. We pulled the damaged sections, replaced the decking, and laid fresh underlayment before anything else went back on.

Once the substrate was solid, we reset the tile. That's the part most people don't think about - the tile itself is often fine, but if what's underneath it isn't doing its job, the whole system fails. Getting the underlayment right is what actually keeps water out. The tile just sits on top of it.

With tile roofs specifically, this kind of repair work extends the life of the roof significantly. A full replacement is expensive. Catching damaged decking and underlayment early - before it spreads to framing or causes interior leaks - is almost always the smarter and cheaper call. That's exactly why we take roof inspections seriously. You can't fix what you don't know is broken.

The finished roofline is clean and the system is solid again. No shortcuts, no hiding problems under new tile. Just good work done the right way.
