Wide range of colours to choose from:
Boral Concrete roof tiles consist of graded sands and pigments and cement. Boral has created a variety of designs and colours for you to choose from to add that unique and personal touch to every home.
Salt-Safe for Coastal or waterfront properties:
All Boral roof tiles are salt-safe meaning you can live comfortably by the water without worrying about long-term replacement costs or maintenance headaches. These tiles are perfect for homes within close proximity to water.
Comfortable indoor living thanks to thermal performance:
Boral concrete tiles allow your home to maintain a comfortable living temperature by not transferring heat during the warm months and by resisting the cold during winter months.
Thermal performance can be significantly enhanced by installing sarking across your entire roof. This will reduce the need for cooling your home during the warmer months, saving you money on energy bills.
Thermal performance can also be enhance by choosing a lighter tile colour and adding a quality insulation product.
Peace and quiet thanks to Acoustic Performance:
Boral’s concrete roof tiles also reduce outside noise. They act as a sound barrier and significantly reduce noise by up to 30dbs. This is extremely beneficial for homes which are under a flight path, on a main road or high traffic area or even during a heavy storm or hail weather pattern.
Low Maintenance:
Boral concrete roof tiles require very minimal maintenance in the long run especially if they have been correctly installed by a professional. If a section of your roof should ever be damaged or require replacing, only the affected tile(s) will require removal. This is handy during renovations or if, for example, you need to install a skylight.
Fire Resistant:
For properties within a high-prone bushfire area, rest assured knowing that Boral’s concrete roof tiles are non-combustible. Made from the highest grade materials and tested in the harshest conditions, Boral’s range of Concrete tiles are suitable for such areas without compromising on the look and feel of your home.
In BAL-12 to BAL-40 assessed areas, homes should feature sarking with a flammability index of no more than 5 and the sarking must be installed across the entire roof and under the tiles. Suitable insulation is also highly recommended.

Safely re-use rainwater and save money:
With a clean and healthy roof, you can easily and safely collect, store and re-use rainwater. Boral concrete roof tiles are made from non-toxic materials and do not contain harmful or hazardous chemicals or substances. Excess water can be stored in your water tank and used for gardening or washing the car. This is fantastic if you are conscious of water usage.
