There's a 20-year clock hidden under every tile roof in Arizona — and most homeowners don't know it's running. The tiles you can see from the street will easily last 50 to 100 years. The waterproof underlayment beneath them won't.
If your home was built between 1995 and 2010, that clock is already past its limit. The next monsoon will tell you exactly how much.

The Lift & Relay process — also called Tile Reset or R&R in the trade — is the structural answer to a structural problem. Solana's crews carefully lift and stockpile your existing tiles, strip the failed underlayment, inspect and repair the wood deck, install premium high-temperature synthetic underlayment, and reset every tile back into its original factory pattern.
You get a new roof. The tiles you already love stay on the house. Your HOA never has to approve a new color, profile, or material. And you save 30 to 40 percent versus a full tile replacement.

We don't believe in one-size-fits-all roofing. Every Solana Lift & Relay starts with the same expert craftsmanship — the difference is in the material science underneath.

Master-planned communities like McDowell Mountain Ranch, Las Sendas, Fulton Ranch, Dove Mountain, and Continental Ranch have strict CC&Rs. Color matches that don't match get rejected. Discontinued tile profiles get rejected. New asphalt shingles get rejected.
Lift & Relay sidesteps every one of those fights. We use the exact tiles your HOA already approved 20 years ago — because they're already on your roof.
If a storm damages more than 25% of your roof's surface, Arizona building code requires the entire roofing system to be brought up to current standards — not just patched. Your insurance company is often legally obligated to fund the full replacement.
We document every square foot. We use satellite-grade measurement software. We negotiate with adjusters. If your roof qualifies, we'll tell you straight.
If yes, your underlayment is past its functional lifespan. Period. The original builders used standardized asphalt felt across thousands of homes in the same MPCs, and those materials are failing on the exact same timeline.
If you live in one of these communities — or in any tile-roof home built in that window — book a free roof analysis. We'll tell you exactly where you are on the clock.
Tiles unlock — we don't pry. Our crews systematically work the original interlocking pattern, the same way they were originally laid. We also build a 300 sq ft tile breakage allowance into every package at no charge, so you don't pay extra for normal wear during the lift.
This is where 20 years of Arizona experience matters. We pull from reclaimed tile networks across the state for discontinued profiles. And when we do need to mix, we pull matching tiles from the rear of the house and put any replacements there — your front elevation stays exactly the same. Most homeowners can't tell us where the swap happened.
The waterproofing performance of a roof is determined by the underlayment, not the tiles. With premium synthetic underlayment installed by a licensed crew, your "reset" roof is functionally a brand-new roof. The tiles were never the failure point — they're not the failure point now.
Most 2,000 sq ft homes complete in 5-7 working days. We work in dry weather, plan around monsoon forecasts, and protect your home with full tarping every night the deck is exposed.
Yes. We document everything, measure with satellite-grade software, and communicate directly with adjusters. If your roof qualifies for storm-damage coverage under the 25% rule, we'll tell you and we'll fight for you.
Stop juggling roofers and solar companies. Stop replacing tiles that aren't broken. Stop waiting for the next monsoon to find out what you should have known last spring.
