Allen Premium Roofing provides professional tile roofing in Allen, TX for residential and commercial properties across the US 75 corridor. Very little of Allen is tiled, and where tile does appear it is usually decoration rather than a roof. Understanding that difference is what keeps a small job from turning into a structural one. Almost every tile call we take here is really a flashing call wearing a tile hat.
The common case is a concrete or clay accent: an entry turret, a bay roof, a porte-cochere, or a band of tile across a front elevation on a house whose main slopes are composition. The rest of the roof is asphalt, and the two systems meet along a transition the original builder detailed once and nobody has opened since. That single joint is doing more work than the tile above it or the shingle below it.
That transition is where the work is. Water leaving a tile field arrives at the shingle faster and in a narrower stream than a shingle valley expects, and it wants a metal pan beneath it. What we generally find instead is mortar, and then more mortar, because a crew reroofing the composition side had no reason to lift tile and every reason to seal the joint. Mortar is not flashing; once it cracks it holds water.
So our answer on most Allen tile is keep it and reflash it. Lifting the field tile, replacing the underlayment beneath, installing a proper metal transition pan and re-bedding hip and ridge runs at a fraction of the cost of removing the tile, and it keeps an elevation the house was designed around in the first place. We salvage and reuse the original field tile where the profile is still obtainable.
Converting a composition roof to full tile is a different proposition and we rarely recommend it here. Concrete tile is a substantial dead load, the framing in this stock was engineered for asphalt, and a structural evaluation becomes the first line item rather than a formality. Anyone describing tile as a drop-in upgrade has not priced the engineer.
Where you do have tile, walk it as little as possible and never with somebody who does not know the traffic pattern for that profile. Most broken tile in this city was broken by a person, usually one servicing a satellite dish, a chimney cap or the shingle field alongside, and a cracked tile does not leak until the underlayment below has spent years wet.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — architectural laminate shingles fastened six per shingle inside the nailing zone, UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated laminates, synthetic underlayment fastened with plastic cap nails, starter course carrying a factory-applied adhesive strip at eave and rake, gutter apron and drip edge in 26-gauge painted steel, reglet-cut counterflashing folded into the mortar joint — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Allen and nearby communities including Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Richardson.

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 architectural laminate shingles fastened six per shingle inside the nailing zone, UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated laminates, synthetic underlayment fastened with plastic cap nails, starter course carrying a factory-applied adhesive strip at eave and rake, 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 Allen 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 the US 75 corridor means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Allen Chooses Allen Premium Roofing
- ✓We date the roof before we quote it, using the shingle line, the permit record for the address and the tear-off count read from the attic, because most Allen roofs are second roofs and the age of the house tells you nothing useful.
- ✓Every estimate is itemized by detail. Boots, valley metal, edge metal, counterflashing, ridge slot and decking are separate lines, so a repair can be compared honestly against a replacement instead of guessed at.
- ✓When the shingle field is sound and only the reused components have failed, we put the recommendation to wait in writing, with a date to look again and the three things worth watching until then.
- ✓Sealant is used only where a manufacturer's instructions call for it. Chimneys get counterflashing cut into the mortar joint, plumbing vents get new boots, and nothing gets a bead of mastic in place of metal.
The standards behind tile roofing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The tile roofing work we do in Allen follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
Every tile roofing project in Allen gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
