Clay tile roofs are very durable because they don’t weather as quickly as other roof systems. There still exist ancient clay tile roofs from Italy or Greece that have lasted for hundreds of years.
2.Fire Resistance:
Due to the stone-like qualities of Clay. Clay tiles are very fire resistant. They are considered a Class A fire rating which is the highest level fire rating.
