How Boral Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

Boral tile is tough stuff, but Orlando’s climate finds the weak points. Here’s what we actually see on roofs across the city, from College Park to Dr. Phillips to neighborhoods near the Milk District.

• Boral concrete tile cracking at the nail line. Boral’s concrete tiles, including the Boral CedarLite and Boral VillaTile lines, are dense and durable, but when the original installer drove nails too tight or used the wrong fastener, hairline cracks radiate from the nail hole. Over time, Orlando’s thermal swings expand and contract those cracks until water gets through. We pull the damaged tile, inspect the batten underneath, and replace with a color-matched Boral tile or a tested equivalent that matches the profile. We also check adjacent tiles for the same stress pattern so you’re not calling us back in six months for the neighbor tile.
• Failed underlayment under Boral tile. This is the big one in Orlando. Your Boral tiles can look perfect while the underlayment beneath them is disintegrating. We see accelerated underlayment breakdown on homes where tile was installed over a single layer of felt in the 1990s and early 2000s. The symptom is water staining on ceilings or walls with no obviously broken tile above. On Boral jobs, we lift a section of tile, inspect the underlayment, and replace it with a high-quality synthetic underlayment rated for our humidity and storm cycles. The tiles go back down, and the roof actually sheds water again, not just looks like it does.
• Valley flashing corrosion on Boral tile roofs. Boral’s Boral Saxony and Boral Madera profiles create deep valleys where water volume is highest. The flashing in those valleys, often original to the home, corrodes at the seams and bends. Once water gets under the flashing, it travels along the roof deck and shows up far from the actual leak. We pull the valley tiles, replace the flashing with properly lapped metal, reset the tiles, and test the valley with a hose before we leave. That test is part of every valley repair we do.
• Ridge cap tiles loosening at the mortar joints. Boral ridge caps are heavier than most competitors’, and on older Orlando homes we see the mortar bedding crack and fall out. Once a ridge cap shifts, wind-driven rain gets straight into the attic. We remove the loose caps, clean the old mortar, reset them with a flexible adhesive or fresh mortar depending on the roof pitch, and make sure the ridge line is watertight. A loose Boral ridge cap looks cosmetic from the street. It isn’t.
• Boral flat tile systems holding water at the eaves. The Boral Flat Tile profile, common on mid-century Orlando homes, has a low surface relief that doesn’t shed water as aggressively as a barrel profile. After years of leaf debris and moss buildup at the eave line, water backs up under the first course of tiles and rots the fascia or the decking edge. We clear the eave, repair any rotted decking, and often add a drip edge extension so water clears the tile edge instead of curling back under it.

Our Boral Roof Repair Process

Greg Holloway walks every Boral roof himself before quoting a number. That’s not a sales tactic; it’s how you find the actual problem instead of guessing from the ground.

1. 1
   You call, a live person answers. No voicemail, no callback queue. We talk through what you’re seeing and set a window for us to arrive. We show up in that window.
2. 2
   Greg inspects the roof on foot. He walks the tile surface, checks the flashing, the valleys, the ridge caps, and the underlayment where accessible. He’ll tell you what he found in plain English, not contractor shorthand.
3. 3
   You get a written price. Before any work starts, you have the cost in writing. Not an estimate with a wink and a “we’ll see how it goes.” A price. We tell you the price before we touch the roof, and we mean it.
4. 4
   We make the repair. For part decisions, we use OEM Boral components when the roof is under an active warranty and the manufacturer’s terms require them. When the warranty has expired, we offer quality aftermarket parts that match the profile and color at a lower cost. We’ll explain the difference and let you choose.
5. 5
   We test the repair. If we touched flashing, a valley, or a leak area, we water-test before we pack up. If it doesn’t hold, we’re not done.
6. 6
   You get the written guarantee before we leave. Every Boral repair carries our written guarantee, delivered to you on the spot. If it fails inside the guarantee period, we return and correct it at no charge under our 365-Day Done Right Promise.

What Boral Roof Repair Costs in Orlando

Here are real numbers for common Boral repair scenarios in the Orlando market. These include labor, materials, and the written guarantee.

What moves the price: roof pitch, tile profile (flat tile is slower to reset than barrel), how much decking is rotted underneath, and whether you’re in a two-story neighborhood like Baldwin Park or a single-story ranch near Conway. We give you the written price before work starts, and it doesn’t change unless we find rot that was hidden under the tile and we show it to you first. The estimate for your Boral roof is free. Call (850) 303-7235 and we’ll set a time to walk it.
