Hi,

I need to buy some spare roof tiles. Do you recommend any stores that sells tiles for the roof?

Do you have a contemporary house, and just need a few modern roof tile replacements? Or do you have an older 1920s/30s Spanish Colonial Revival house, and need historically accurate tile replacements? Modern and older roof tiles are not interchangeable.

I have a 1986 house in penasquitos and need some spanish style roof tile to replace the broken ones. I do not know of any place that has a showroom so that I can take my last spare roof tile to match and buy more.

Duckwhiler, I have not heard of any feedbacks since my last communication. Then I found that HomeDepot can order tiles for you but you have to bulk order.

Why don't you just call a roofing company? Why would you need any spares anyways? I'm sure they'll have plenty of stock considering they are spanish tiles like 70% of san diego houses.

I've never had to replace any roof tiles on my house but checking the local yellow pages and comparing prices over the phone usually seems the best in situations like this.

Go to roofing wholesale in Spring Valley, off of Jamacha Rd. They will have any tiles you need. They have a huge yard full of old tile.
