Aloha Roof Pros provides professional tile roofing in Aloha, OR for residential and commercial properties across the Tualatin Valley. Here is the page where we talk down our own catalog. If you own a 1970s house in Aloha and you have your heart set on tile, the answer is almost always no, and we would sooner explain the reasoning than take the order.
The trusses over your head were engineered around a light composition covering. Concrete tile represents an entirely different order of dead load, and installing it on framing drawn for something much lighter is not a decision a roofing contractor is permitted to make alone. It calls for a design professional to evaluate the existing members and stamp an answer. That evaluation covers the trusses, the walls beneath them, and the connections carrying load to the ground.
That evaluation costs real money, and on this stock it comes back unfavorable often enough that we discourage people from paying to find out. In the cases where it does come back favorable, the reinforcement work required generally costs more than the tile itself would have, which few owners expect going in. Owners often assume a roofer can simply add reinforcement, but we are not licensed to design structure and will not pretend otherwise.
There is a second obstacle waiting behind the first. Concrete and clay both carry a minimum slope below which they cannot legally be installed, and the shallow planes over 1970s carports, family room additions and covered entries frequently fall under it. A house that could carry tile often cannot carry it everywhere. Underlayment is the other half of the story, because on a tile roof it keeps the water out and ages faster than the tile.
If appearance is what you are after, stone-coated steel delivers the same profile at a small fraction of the weight and installs onto the framing you already own. We fit a fair amount of it around here for exactly that reason, and nobody has yet been disappointed by how it looks from the curb. It also installs over the existing plane on battens, so there is no tear-off and no disposal charge sitting on the invoice.
Tile work we do take on sits mostly in the newer plats north and west of here, on houses built with it from the start. Relays, underlayment replacement, cracked field pieces and headwall detailing are routine for us, and we keep salvaged tile sorted by profile so repairs actually match. Relaying a tile roof to replace failed underlayment is one of the better-value jobs in this trade, since the expensive material goes straight back on.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — metal connector plates read tooth by tooth from the attic floor, the clear opening of a little over twenty-two inches between chords, a stamped repair detail drawn by an engineer for an altered chord, tubular daylight devices threaded between web members, self-adhered membrane at valleys and every roof penetration, gable end frames that carry no triangulated webbing — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Aloha and nearby communities including Beaverton, Hillsboro, Cedar Hills, West Slope.

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 metal connector plates read tooth by tooth from the attic floor, the clear opening of a little over twenty-two inches between chords, a stamped repair detail drawn by an engineer for an altered chord, tubular daylight devices threaded between web members, 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 Aloha 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 Tualatin Valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Aloha Chooses Aloha Roof Pros
- ✓We read the truss framing from inside the attic before we price a single square, because on Aloha's housing the manufactured geometry overhead decides what is actually possible on the plane above it.
- ✓Our estimates are written per plane, so the trussed main roof and the addition or carport each get their own assembly rather than being averaged into one number that fits neither.
- ✓We refuse coating work over composition roofs and we say so in writing, because a film over granulated asphalt seals in moisture and puts the manufacturer's warranty out of reach permanently.
- ✓We will talk you out of a hail claim this climate does not support, since western Oregon sees severe hail rarely and a withdrawn claim sits on your loss history for years.
The standards behind tile roofing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The tile roofing work we do in Aloha 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 Aloha 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.
