Boral Roof Repair in San Antonio: What to Know First
Boral roof repair in San Antonio typically runs between $325 and $1,400 depending on what failed, and most repairs take our techs a single afternoon to complete. We are an independent Boral service provider, meaning we repair Boral concrete and clay tile roofs without any corporate affiliation, using OEM parts when they matter and quality aftermarket options when they don’t. If you own a Boral tile roof and water is getting in, this page explains exactly what we see across San Antonio, what it costs, and how to get it fixed without guesswork. Call (361) 209-8857 for a written estimate before any work starts.
How Boral Products Fail – and How We Fix Them
- Boral CedarLite and CedarLite Classic barrel tiles often crack at the nail line. These concrete tiles are lighter than clay but the nail holes near the top edge are a known stress point after years of San Antonio heat cycling. We replace the cracked tile and, where the pattern allows, add a small uplift clip so the next tile doesn’t rock loose in our spring windstorms.
- Boral Capistrano clay tile roofs lose their ridge caps before anything else. The mortar under the cap tiles breaks down from our temperature swings, and once one cap lifts, wind gets under the next one. We pull the loose caps, reset them over fresh mortar or a flexible adhesive, and seal the joint cleanly instead of smearing caulk over the problem.
- Boral Villa and Verona flat tiles collect debris along valleys and hold water longer than other profiles. Our spring oak pollen and fall leaf load clog the narrow water channels, and standing water accelerates underlayment wear at the valley line. We clear the channel, inspect the underlayment beneath, and replace valley flashing rather than papering over a soaked patch.
- Boral underlayment, not the tile, fails first more often than owners expect. Tile roofs in San Antonio can outlast their underlayment two or three times over. We see old felt underlayment that’s baked and torn under Boral tiles that still look fine from the street. When the tile is sound, we lift sections, replace the underlayment, and relay the same tile – a repair, not a reroof.
- Boral Mission and Slate interlocking profiles shift at the eaves when the starter course loosens. A shifted tile at the gutter line lets water run behind the next course and into the fascia. We reset the starter row, check the clip system, and re-secure any tiles that drifted out of course so the roof sheds water the way it did the day it was installed.

Our Boral Roof Repair Process
Every Boral job we run goes through the same five steps, whether it’s one cracked tile or a full valley rebuild:
- 1
Call and schedule. A live person answers at (361) 209-8857, takes the address and the symptom you’re seeing, and sets a time. You get a live arrival link before we pull up.
- 2
On-site diagnostic. We walk the roof, identify the failed tile, flashing joint, or underlayment section, and photograph everything. You see what we see.
- 3
Written price before any work starts. The quote breaks down the parts decision – OEM Boral tile from a San Antonio masonry supplier or a matched aftermarket profile – plus labor and fasteners. The number on the page is the number on the invoice.
- 4
The repair. We remove the damaged section, address the real cause underneath, install the repair with compatible materials, and re-point or re-secure adjacent tiles so the patch blends.
- 5
Photo documentation and the 365-Day Done Right Promise. Before-and-after photos are sent to your phone, and the repair is covered in writing for a full year. If it fails, the second visit is free.

AfterWhat Boral Roof Repair Costs in San Antonio
Most Boral repairs we quote in San Antonio land between $325 and $1,400. A single cracked barrel tile replacement usually runs $325 to $450 including the tile, fasteners, and the service call. Flashing repair around a chimney or valley on a Boral roof runs $550 to $900 because we have to lift and reset the surrounding tile. Replacing a section of underlayment under otherwise sound tile costs $900 to $1,400 depending on the square footage and access. What moves the price: whether we need OEM Boral tile or a matched aftermarket equivalent, how steep the roof is, and how much tile has to come up to reach the actual failure. Call (361) 209-8857 and we’ll put a written number in front of you before anything gets touched.
Why San Antonio Homeowners Call Crestview Roofing Co San Antonio for Boral Work
We don’t treat a Boral roof as just another tile job. Dylan Pace and our crew know which Boral profiles show up most on San Antonio homes and where they fail first, which means we diagnose the actual cause instead of replacing a symptom. Every repair carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing, and if a covered repair fails within the year, the second visit is free. We also work across GAF, Owens Corning, and CertainTeed systems, so if we find a different brand’s flashing or underlayment adjacent to the Boral tile, we know how to tie into it correctly. Every promise we make goes in writing – because a handshake doesn’t keep water out.
FAQs
No, not when the repair is done with compatible materials and proper fasteners. As an independent Boral service provider, we use OEM tile where the warranty language requires it and document the repair thoroughly. We won’t spec a part that puts your coverage at risk without telling you first. Call (361) 209-8857 to talk through your specific warranty situation.
A single-tile or flashing repair is typically done the same afternoon, and most underlayment patch jobs wrap in one to two days. Weather and tile sourcing can stretch that if we have to order a specific Boral profile, but we’ll tell you the timeline up front in the written estimate.
Yes, in most cases. We work with San Antonio masonry suppliers who stock or can source discontinued Boral profiles, and when OEM isn’t available, we match profile and color with a quality aftermarket equivalent. We’ll tell you which one we’re quoting before any work starts.
If the tile itself is in good shape and the failure is underlayment, flashing, or isolated tile damage, repair is the better spend. We’ll reroof a Boral roof when the tile is failing across multiple slopes or when the underlayment has failed in so many sections that patchwork no longer holds. We’ll walk you through both numbers before you commit to either.
