How Boral Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

Boral makes a few distinct roofing lines, and each one fails differently in Miami’s heat, salt air, and hurricane-driven rain. Here’s what we actually see on Boral roofs across Miami-Dade, from Coral Gables to Kendall to Cutler Bay:

• Boral Concrete Tile (the classic barrel and flat profiles). The tiles themselves are tough – what fails underneath them is the underlayment. Miami’s UV load bakes the felt or synthetic underlayment until it’s brittle, usually around year 15 to 20. We see this on concrete tile roofs all over Westchester and Hialeah. The fix is lifting the tile in sections, replacing the underlayment, and re-bedding the tiles. That’s a repair, not a full re-roof, and it costs far less than homeowners expect when it’s caught early.
• Boral Clay Tile (often on Mediterranean-style homes in Coral Gables and Pinecrest). Clay tiles crack from foot traffic and impact – tree limbs, a dropped tool, a contractor who didn’t know where to step. A cracked clay tile lets water hit the underlayment every time it rains, and in Miami it rains a lot. We replace individual cracked clay tiles with matching profiles. If Boral’s current color batch doesn’t match your weathered roof, we source salvage tiles that blend in – the roof looks consistent, and the leak stops.
• Boral Storm Series and other mortar-set profiles. Mortar-set clay and concrete tiles crack at the mortar joints first, especially along hips and ridges. Once the mortar fails, the tile shifts, and the next wind event walks it right off the deck. This is the most common Boral failure we repair after Miami’s spring and summer storm season. We re-mortar the joints, re-secure the tiles, and check the battens underneath.
• Valley and flashing failures on Boral tile roofs. The valley metal on Boral roofs in Miami takes a beating from salt air and constant wet-dry cycling. We see pinhole corrosion in the valleys on Boral tile roofs within ten years in coastal neighborhoods like Brickell and Edgewater. The tile sits over the valley metal, so the leak often shows up far from the actual failure. We replace the valley metal and re-lay the tile, not just patch it – a patch on a corroded valley buys you one season at most.
• Vent boot and pipe collar failures on Boral decks. Whether you have Boral concrete or clay, the rubber boots around plumbing vents age out long before the tile does. In Miami’s sun, rubber boots crack and shrink within five to seven years. Water follows the pipe through the deck, and it looks like a tile failure when it isn’t. We replace the boots, re-seal around the pipes, and make sure the tile around the penetration is properly bedded. This is one of the least expensive Boral repairs we do – and one of the most common.

Our Boral Roof Repair Process

Here’s how a Boral repair works when you call Mercer Roofing Co Miami:

1. 1
   You call (850) 753-2996. A live person answers, day or night. We take the details and set a time. Before our technician arrives, you receive their name and photo, so you know exactly who’s at your door.
2. 2
   Inspection and diagnosis. Grant Whitlock or one of our senior techs walks the roof – not just the spot where you saw water. We trace the failure to its source, because on Boral tile, the visible damage is often ten feet from the real problem.
3. 3
   Written price before anything starts. We hand you a line-item price in writing. You approve it, or you don’t. No work begins until you’ve seen the number.
4. 4
   The repair. We use Boral tiles where matching is possible, quality-matched tiles where Boral’s current run doesn’t match, and the right underlayment, flashing, and fasteners for Miami’s wind and rain load. Nothing is reverse-engineered or improvised.
5. 5
   Test and walkthrough. We water-test the repair where practical, then walk you through what we did and what we saw elsewhere on the roof. If we notice something that needs attention in the next year or two, we tell you honestly – no scare tactic, no surprise invoice.
6. 6
   Your guarantee. Every Boral repair is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise: if it isn’t right within a year, we come back and make it right, free. That’s in writing, on every job.

What Boral Roof Repair Costs in Miami

Here’s what Boral repairs actually cost in Miami, based on what we’ve priced across the city this year:

What moves the price: roof height and pitch, how many tiles must be lifted, whether we need salvage tiles to match your weathered roof, and how much decking has to be replaced once we get under the tile. A two-story tile roof in Coconut Grove costs more than a single-story in Westchester because of the access and safety work involved. Call (850) 753-2996 for a written estimate. We don’t charge to look.
