Reviving your roof
If you decide to install a new roof, the first thing to consider is the materiality. Roof tiles are a great choice, being durable, longwearing, fireproof with a low long-term cost, they’re a great investment in your home.
In terms of materiality, terracotta tiles have a hard-wearing finish with a distinct style. Bristile Roofing’s La Escandella range has a number of profiles, each with a lustrous finish and refined design, the tiles come with a lifetime colour warranty and a 100-year product warranty. The tiles’ sleek flat design offers easy installation and reduces costs. Their impressive thermal mass helps control temperatures inside the home, and their lower embodied energy reduces your home’s carbon footprint too.
Of course, it’s not all about function – the roof plays an important role in the look of your home, too. Bristile Roofing’s La Escandella’s Planum collection offers a flexible range of contemporary finishes that suit all design styles.

The Pullenvale project, by architect Tim Stewart is the ultimate example of how to use La Escandella’s roof tiles to create a sleek and streamlined look. Owner-builder Tim Pedley was considerate with the materials selected,only choosing materials that he believed would improve the home’s longevity and resale value. Pedley chose the La Escandella Planum Tile in Slate to replicate the look of a classic shingled roof.
Alternatively, for a more earthy, textured stone-like finish, the Bristile Roofing La Escandella Planum Blackstone profile is a good option, whilst for a more modern finish, the Bristile Roofing La Escandella Caviar tile gives your roof a lustrous semi-gloss shine.
Bristile Roofing’s concrete roof tiles are durable and hard wearing, increasing in strength over time, whilst their terracotta roof tiles come with a ‘Colour for Life’ warranty, ensuring the tiles will never fade or change colour. So when it comes to the upkeep of your home, choose Bristile Roofing to get style and function under the same roof.
- From European style high roll tiles to flat contemporary options designed in colours to complement modern designs, Bristile Roofing’s La Escandella collection of terracotta tiles has an option to suit your style.
Why is your roof so important? First of all, there’s Australia’s harsh climate – your roof plays a key role in keeping the elements out and maintaining a comfortable temperature inside. Your roof also offers a level of structural support, provides insulative qualities and is a key aesthetic feature of the home’s exterior.
However, fending off the elements and exposure to harsh conditions can really take its toll. As your home’s roof shows signs of wearing out, you’ll need to ask some serious questions: is it time to repair, re-colour, or re-roof?
Given the roof’s critical role in protecting your home, it’s important to really understand the issues you need to fix – what might seem like a cosmetic issue at first could, in fact, be affecting your roof’s underlying structure, its insulative capability and aesthetic appeal.
Finding a good roof specialist who can identify the cause of the problem is key. Good advice will help you choose the right course of action, set a realistic budget and select the best product.
