Quick answer: Tile roofs usually leak because the underlayment beneath the tile has worn out, not because the tile itself failed. The fix is often a lift-and-relay: remove the tile, replace the underlayment, and put the good tile back.
The tile is armor, not the raincoat
Tile sheds most water and blocks sun. The underlayment is what actually keeps water out.
Signs your underlayment is done
Leaks with no broken tiles, ceiling stains under valleys, and an older roof.
Lift and relay
We save the good tile, replace the underlayment and battens if needed, and relay it.
