Profile clay roof tiles remain as popular as ever, adding a beautiful finishing touch to the roof of any building, whether public or residential. In terms of shape and design, clay offers great flexibility and we work with our manufacturers to supply both plain clay tiles and profile clay tiles to meet almost any requirement. From low to high-pitch roofs, they can incorporate a range of different styles to emulate other variants of tile to match existing designs and materials.
