What then will be reliable? At all times, ceramic tiles were considered the most reliable roofing material. But due to its high cost, it was most often covered not by private houses, but by architectural monuments under the protection of the state. And even that, I think, not in order to preserve the building, but purely in order to maintain an appropriate image. But this expensive material nevertheless takes the leading position from artificial roofing materials due to its consumer characteristics: strength, durability, reliability, aesthetics, resistance to natural and temperature phenomena, as well as noise insulation. Increasingly, it is ceramic tile that can be seen on the roofs of country houses and cottages: people correctly understand the saying “the stingy pays twice”. It is better to overpay once, but then no troubles, nor worries, nor troubles know. Even in the case of replacing the «failed» tiles, you do not have to strain much — this is quite easy and simple.
