How to choose a durable and long-lasting roofing well?

15 of February '26

The roof is one of the most important elements of a building - its quality affects the life of the structure and the safety of the occupants, as well as the appearance of the house. When choosing a roof covering, it is worth paying attention to the type of material, its resistance to weather conditions and the style that will fit in with the architecture of the building. Braas offers comprehensive solutions to meet these requirements, while ensuring durability and comfort for years to come.

Braas clay roof tiles are produced from high-quality clay and fired at very high temperatures. This gives them resistance to harsh weather conditions such as frost, heat or rapid temperature changes. They are an extremely durable, beautiful and long-lasting roofing material. Braas concrete tiles are made from dense concrete mass using modern production technologies. They are characterized by exceptional resistance to hail, strong winds and intense rainfall. Concrete tiles are also resistant to repeated freeze-thaw cycles, which is especially important in climates with variable weather conditions.

Both types of tiles are resistant to mechanical damage and are non-flammable, further enhancing building safety. The lifespan of concrete tiles is estimated at about 70-80 years, while that of ceramic tiles is up to 100 years, making them among the most durable materials on the market.

Reliability and excellent protection

Braas tiles are designed for protection in harsh weather conditions - they are resistant to storms, frost, hail, fire and UV radiation. Thanks to their weight, they are resistant to strong gusts of wind. Braas roof tiles undergo wind tunnel testing, which confirms their high tightness and resistance to heavy rain. The side and bottom locks of the tiles provide additional protection against blowing snow, dust or water under the covering.

Silence even during a downpour

One of the biggest advantages of Braas tiles is their excellent sound insulation. Unlike lightweight roofing materials, ceramic and concrete tiles do not transmit noise from rain or hail. Their mass means that they do not succumb to vibration, which provides acoustic comfort inside the building, especially in the attic. As a result, residents can enjoy silence even during the most intense rainfall.

Modernity in a flat form

Flat tiles are an excellent choice for those who appreciate the modern style that has reigned on roofs for years. Among Braas concrete flat tiles, the Teviva Cisar model stands out in particular. It is characterized by a modern shape and a simple line. A fashionable range of colors, including shades of black, graphite and gray, allows the tile to perfectly match the facade and surroundings. Teviva is manufactured using modern Cisar technology, patented by Braas, which provides the tiles with exceptional durability, a smooth surface and intense and deep color saturation.

Tourmaline clay tile also perfectly emphasizes the modern character of the roofing, especially for buildings with a minimalist design. The rich color palette - copper, anthracite, chestnut, gray and black - provides a wide range of possibilities to match the design, location or style of the house. Selected colors are available in three surface finishes: engobed, glazed and Top Line Glaze. These tiles are characterized by excellent technical properties, which guarantees many years of product durability and reliability.

Minimalism with character

An excellent alternative to flat tiles is the semi-flat Topas clay tile. Its geometric form perfectly matches the simplicity of modern constructions. It will also perfectly complement classic designs. Available in two formats - the smaller 13V and the larger 11V - it exemplifies the perfect combination of elegance, delicacy and high quality.

Another excellent choice is the Opal clay tile - a classic plain tile, which, is perfect for the roofs of historic buildings as well as for individual construction. It is an ideal solution for roofs of complex, fancy construction. It combines timeless classics and beauty, giving great possibilities of application, and at the same time it is a top-class product.

Classics in a traditional version

For those wishing to preserve the classic character of the roof, corrugated tiles are the ideal solution. One popular choice is the Baltic concrete tile. Its asymmetrical wave creates an interesting play of light and shadow on the slope and gives the roof a unique charm. Also worth mentioning is the bestselling model of Celtic concrete tile. Its harmonious shape of a regular wave fits perfectly with the classic style of houses, providing them with elegance and a traditional look. Celtic has been one of the most popular Braas tile models for years.

The Rubin 9V tile is an example of a flat ceramic Dutch tile, which gives roofs a classic, elegant character. It is available in the classic shade of copper and modern shades of anthracite, in two finishes: engobed and glazed. The Rubin 9V tile is also distinguished by technical advantages, such as its large format, ease of installation, and deep top and side locking, which facilitates the drainage of rainwater, ensuring the tightness and durability of the roofing.

Thermal comfort begins with the tile

Particularly noteworthy are Braas TermoComfort concrete tiles - a modern solution combining classic aesthetics with innovative technology to reduce roof heating on hot days. The special coating used in them with IR radiation blockers reflects a significant part of heat energy, instead of absorbing it. TermoComfort tiles effectively reduce the heating of the roofing in summer, by up to 27°C*. On hot days, they ensure a lower temperature in the attic - by up to 5.8 °C*.

At the same time, TermoComfort tiles retain all the valued features of Braas concrete tiles: they are highly frost-resistant and resistant to harsh weather conditions such as storms, gusty winds and hail. They provide excellent sound insulation. As a result, they combine a beautiful, classic look with modern functionality. They are available in three carefully designed models: Teviva TermoComfort, Baltic TermoComfort and Celtic TermoComfort.
