Turn the tile back over with the right side up to check the profile. Many tiles have a hump in the centre of the tile with a flat section either side. If this is your type of tile then measure the flat section. It should be either 15mm or 60mm.
Roof tiles are designed mainly to keep out rain, and are traditionally made from locally available materials such as terracotta or slate.
They are similar in design to conventional roof tiles but with a photovoltaic cell within in order to generate renewable electricity.
Concrete roofing tiles are a popular, budget-friendly alternative to traditional clay roofing tiles. Concrete tiles have a long lifespan up to 50 years, require low maintenance, offer good fire protection (Class A rated), and are resistant to rot and insects.
Tile roofs installed with base flashings only, where gaps exist or cement was used to fill them, can expect to be replaced between years 15 and 25. Roofs with top flashings only will likely last 40-50 years.
