Clay tile, concrete tile, and Brava synthetic tile — premium roofing systems installed to the highest standard for luxury homes across Fort Worth, Southlake, Westlake, Flower Mound, and the DFW Metroplex.
DW CONSTRUCTION
Tile roofing is one of the most durable and visually distinctive choices available for luxury residential homes. DW Construction installs all three primary tile roofing systems — clay tile, concrete tile, and Brava synthetic composite tile — for high-value homes across Fort Worth, Southlake, Westlake, Colleyville, Flower Mound, and the greater DFW Metroplex. Each system has distinct advantages. We will help you select the right one for your home, your architecture, and your long-term ownership plan. Many tile-roofed estate homes also include flat sections over porches and decks — a separate low-slope system we install and tie into the tile ourselves. See our flat & low-slope roofing page for those details. For a deep look at natural clay tile — including Ludowici terra cotta and historic tile matching — see our clay tile roofing page. We also repair, restore, and install Ludowici terra cotta tile.
TILE VS. HAIL
Clay Tile
Clay is the original luxury roofing material: impervious to rot, insects, and moisture with a design life of 75 to 100 years. But real clay barrel tile shatters under hail impact — the liability that leads many DFW homeowners to a composite alternative.
Concrete Tile
Concrete tile delivers 40 to 50 years of performance and a Class A fire rating, and is manufactured in impact-rated profiles across barrel, flat, and shake profiles that complement luxury home architecture across the DFW Metroplex.
Brava Composite
Brava synthetic tile carries a Class 4 impact rating and a 50-year transferable warranty, with zero maintenance requirements — giving you the look of slate, Spanish barrel, and cedar shake without clay's hail liability.
TILE ROOFING SYSTEMS
The original luxury roofing material. Clay tile has proven itself over centuries — impervious to rot, insects, and moisture, with a design life of 75 to 100 years. For luxury homes in Fort Worth, Southlake, and Westlake where permanence and architectural character matter, clay tile represents the pinnacle of roofing investment. Much of the historic clay tile on DFW roofs was made by Ludowici — our Ludowici tile repair page covers identifying and matching it.
