WHAT WE DO
Tile Roofing Services for Arizona Homes
Tile Roof Repair
Broken or displaced tiles may be only part of the problem. We inspect the affected area and surrounding components to determine whether a targeted repair can address the issue for you directly.
Tile Roof Replacement
When deterioration extends beyond a repairable area, a larger reroofing project may be appropriate. We explain which components need replacement and whether suitable existing tiles can be retained.
Tile Underlayment Replacement
The material beneath the tiles is very important in managing water. If it's deteriorated, underlayment replacement may be needed even when many of the tiles remain usable.
New Tile Roof Installation
Planning a new home, addition, or roofing change? We help you evaluate tile options and the installation requirements for your home or building's ideal design. Ideal for new construction or upgrades.
Does Your Tile Roof Need Repair, Underlayment Work, or Replacement?
The right scope depends on where the problem is occurring and how much of the roofing system is affected. Our goal is to explain the difference so you can compare options confidently. Good looking tiles do not tell the whole story. That's why we start with an assessment of what is happening above and beneath the surface.
When You Need Tile Repair
Damage is limited to a defined area
Surrounding roofing components remain serviceable
A specific repair can address the source of the problem
When Underlayment is Needed
Assessment identifies deteriorated underlayment
The scope requires lifting tiles to address underlying materials
Suitable existing tiles may be reused
When Tile Replacement is Needed
Deterioration affects multiple components or roof areas
Existing tiles are unsuitable for reuse
Previous repairs are no longer a practical solution

Tile Roofing FAQs
Can a tile roof be repaired without replacing the whole roof?
Often, yes. Individual tiles and localized problem areas may be repairable, but the surrounding underlayment and decking should be evaluated before deciding the scope. Replacing visible tiles alone may not address damage beneath them.
Why is my tile roof leaking if the tiles look fine?
The issue may involve underlayment, flashing, or other roofing details rather than an obviously broken tile. An assessment is needed to identify the affected components and establish an appropriate repair.
Can existing roof tiles be reused?
Some existing tiles may be suitable for reuse, depending on their condition and the project requirements. New or reused tiles will not be installed over compromised underlayment.
What is tile roof underlayment replacement?
It involves removing the tiles as required to access and replace the underlayment beneath them, then reinstalling suitable tiles or installing replacements within the agreed scope. Flashing and other affected components should also be addressed as specified in the proposal.
How long does a tile roof last?
In general, a clay tile roof can last 50 to 100 years while concrete tiles can last for 50 to 75 years. However, it's important to note that the tiles and underlying components do not necessarily have the same service life. Tile can remain usable while underlayment or flashing requires attention, so roof condition and maintenance history matter more than a single lifespan figure.

About Us
At Reality Roofing, every project is backed by decades of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of what it takes to build in Arizona’s climate. Founded by licensed contractor David Porter, the company was born from a passion for quality craftsmanship and a commitment to helping Tucson homeowners protect what matters most.
David Porter
David is the owner and hands-on leader of Reality Roofing. He brings over two decades of deep industry experience, having begun his career in roofing in 1995 as an installer. From 1995 to 2012, David personally installed a wide range of roofing systems—including custom and complex builds—giving him a level of firsthand expertise that few owners or sales professionals can match.
Raised as the son of a builder, David learned early the value of hard work and the importance of building quality homes. His background isn’t limited to construction—he also spent time serving as a pastor and missionary, overseeing community development projects on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.
In 2017, David and his family relocated to Tucson, where he and his son Elijah spent several years managing a roofing department for a larger company. Their work extended beyond roofing to include HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and painting—experience that helped round out David’s construction expertise. Now, with the support of his wife Tiffani and their family, he’s proud to bring a fresh perspective to Tucson homeowners through Reality Roofing.
David holds a KB-1 General Contractor’s License, allowing him to lead both residential and commercial projects. When you schedule an estimate with Reality Roofing, you’ll speak directly with David—someone who values education, transparency, and helping homeowners make confident, informed decisions about their roofing needs.
