What is a "roofing tile"?
A roofing tile is a flat or curved piece of material used to cover roofs, protecting buildings from rain, sunlight, and other weather conditions. Roofing tiles are typically made from clay, concrete, metal, or other durable materials and are designed to overlap in a way that directs water off the roof. They are commonly used for their durability, insulation, and decorative appeal, often adding a distinctive style to buildings.
Examples
The new house was designed with red clay roofing tiles for a traditional look.
The workers replaced the damaged roofing tiles to prevent leaks during the rainy season.
