Frequently Asked Questions
Can my roof frame support clay tiles?
Our engineering team calculates truss payload specs. If reinforcement is needed, our team handles structural upgrades.
Why does GCPC recommend 100% recycled polymer tiles for Spanish style roofs?
For clients seeking the Spanish Colonial barrel aesthetic, our new Spanish style roofs use 100% recycled eco-polymer barrel tiles. They deliver the identical Spanish architectural profile in 100% recycled Costa Rican polymers at only 5–6 kg/m² (vs 50 kg/m² for clay), eliminating structural rafter overloading, moss buildup, and earthquake cracking while conserving native hardwoods.
