Tex-Mex Construction Services specializes in installing tile roofs, offering a blend of beauty, durability, and energy efficiency that complements the region’s climate and style.

Why Choose Tile Roofs in New Mexico?

1. Superior Longevity:
Tile roofs are renowned for their long lifespan, often lasting over 50 years with proper maintenance. This exceptional durability makes them ideal for New Mexico’s extreme weather, including intense heat and occasional hail.

2. Energy Efficiency:
Tile roofs provide natural thermal resistance, helping to insulate homes and reduce energy consumption. Their ability to absorb heat during the day and release it during cooler nights keeps homes comfortable throughout the year.

3. Architectural Appeal:
Tile roofs complement New Mexico’s architectural heritage, from traditional Spanish Mission styles to modern designs. Available in various shapes, colors, and finishes, they enhance curb appeal while offering long-lasting performance.

4. Fire and Weather Resistance:
Tiles are non-combustible and offer superior protection against fire, making them a safe choice in fire-prone areas. Additionally, their heavy weight helps them resist strong winds and impacts, providing dependable protection in various weather conditions.

5. Low Maintenance:
Once installed, tile roofs require minimal maintenance. Their durable surfaces resist rot, insect damage, and decay, providing worry-free protection for years to come.
