Clay and concrete tile installation, repair, and replacement for luxury and Mediterranean-style homes across Northeast Florida. Expert installation built for Florida's climate.
Tile roofing is one of the most beautiful and durable roofing systems available โ but it's also one of the most technical to install correctly. In Florida's high-wind environment, improper tile installation fails catastrophically during storms. Miller Roofing Solutions follows Florida Building Code to the letter, with every tile mechanically fastened and every penetration properly sealed.
We specialize in the luxury communities of Ponte Vedra Beach, Nocatee, San Jose, and St. Augustine โ neighborhoods where tile roofing is the standard and quality is non-negotiable.
Tile roofs weigh 3โ4x more than shingles. Before any installation, we assess your roof's structural framing to confirm it can support the added load. If reinforcement is needed, we identify it upfront โ not after materials are ordered.
We source clay and concrete tiles from Florida's leading manufacturers in dozens of profiles and colors. For repairs, we match existing tiles as closely as possible โ critical for HOA compliance and curb appeal in Ponte Vedra and Nocatee communities.
Unlike shingles, tile is a water-shedding system โ not waterproof. The real waterproofing is the underlayment beneath. We install 30-lb felt or premium peel-and-stick membranes depending on pitch, with full coverage at all valleys and penetrations.
Horizontal battens are installed across the deck to elevate tiles and create an air gap. This ventilation layer is critical in Florida's heat โ it reduces attic temperatures and extends the life of both the tile and the underlayment beneath.
Every tile is mechanically fastened per Florida Building Code wind requirements. In high-wind zones, we use hurricane clips and foam adhesive in addition to screws โ ensuring your tile roof meets or exceeds the 130 MPH wind rating required in Northeast Florida.
Ridges and hips are mortared and capped with matching tiles. Valleys are lined with lead or aluminum flashing and sealed with roofing cement. These transition points are where most tile roof leaks originate โ we treat them with the highest level of care.
We walk the completed roof, confirm all tiles are secure, and document the installation with photos. Your manufacturer warranty is registered and our workmanship guarantee is provided in writing before we leave.

Clay tile roofs in Florida regularly last 50โ100 years when properly installed and maintained. Concrete tile typically lasts 30โ50 years. The underlayment beneath the tile is usually the first component to fail โ typically after 20โ30 years โ and can be replaced without replacing the tiles themselves.
Tile is fragile underfoot and should only be walked on by trained professionals who know how to distribute weight across the tile structure. Homeowners walking on tile roofs is one of the most common causes of cracked tiles and subsequent leaks.
Individual tiles can be replaced as long as matching tiles are available. We source replacement tiles from manufacturers and distributors across Florida. For older discontinued tile profiles, we can often find close matches or source reclaimed tiles.
Yes. Any tile roof installation or full replacement requires a permit from Jacksonville Building Services. We handle all permitting as part of every project. Tile installations also require a structural review in some cases, which we coordinate with the building department.
Concrete tile installation typically ranges from $12โ$18 per square foot installed. Clay tile ranges from $18โ$28 per square foot. The wide range reflects tile profile, structural work needed, and roof complexity. We provide free written quotes with no obligation.
