Columbia MO Roof Pros provides professional tile roofing in Columbia, MO for residential and commercial properties across Boone County and mid-Missouri. Tile is uncommon in Boone County and we will say that before quoting anything. What exists here is mostly concrete tile on a handful of custom houses built since the 1990s, plus clay accents on older buildings. Nearly all of our tile work is repair, not new installation.
That is a deliberate position rather than a lack of interest. A tile field is a heavy assembly and most of the housing stock here was framed for asphalt. Putting concrete tile on a 1950s ranch in central Columbia means a structural review before anything else, and in most cases the honest recommendation is a different material and a better underlayment. Adding weight to a roof framed for asphalt is not a detail to skip past.
Where tile already exists, the tile is rarely the problem. The underlayment beneath it is. Tile sheds most of the water and the membrane underneath handles the rest, so a field can look perfect from the street while the layer actually doing the work has aged out. Leaks show at valleys, at headwalls and around penetrations first. Age the membrane, not the tile, is the right way to read one of these roofs.
The repair that works is a relay. Lift and stack the sound tile, strip and replace the underlayment on the affected planes, rebuild the flashings in metal rather than mastic, then set the tile back down. Broken pieces get swapped from the stack or matched from salvage, and the count of what broke in handling goes on the invoice. Sourcing salvage that matches takes longer than setting the tile back down does.
Walking a tile roof is how most tile gets broken, including by inspectors and other trades. If a satellite installer or a chimney sweep has been up there, the cracked pieces will be in a line where somebody stepped. We photograph the field before starting so that the count at the end is a record rather than an argument.
For a rental building with tile, the practical advice is to fix the valleys and headwalls and leave the rest alone. The field is not what fails a code inspection; water arriving in a bedroom is. Spending on the visible field while the valley membrane is brittle gets the priorities exactly backwards. Priorities on a rental are set by where the water lands, not by the street view.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — self-adhered ice barrier turned two feet inside the heated wall line, hemmed 26-gauge drip edge lapped over a gutter apron, hot-dipped galvanized step flashing woven course by course, coil-wrapped fascia over primed and sound sub-fascia, vented soffit panels sized to the existing overhang, six-inch K-style seamless gutter carried on hidden hangers — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Columbia and nearby communities including Ashland, Centralia, Hallsville, Sturgeon.

Materials, equipment and how we do tile roofing
The difference between tile roofing that lasts and tile roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with self-adhered ice barrier turned two feet inside the heated wall line, hemmed 26-gauge drip edge lapped over a gutter apron, hot-dipped galvanized step flashing woven course by course, coil-wrapped fascia over primed and sound sub-fascia, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Columbia job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Boone County and mid-Missouri means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Columbia Chooses Columbia MO Roof Pros
- ✓We ask when your certificate of compliance expires before we quote, because the renewal date shapes the schedule more than the weather does
- ✓Every report is written against the property maintenance code sections an inspector actually cites, section by section, rather than as a sales sheet
- ✓A code correction and a storm loss are kept in separate documents, because a violation notice is not a claim and presenting it as one gets it denied
- ✓We will tell you to delete a skylight or take a dead chimney below the roofline instead of selling the replacement, where that ends a repeat finding for good

If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
