The reality is that Concrete tiles do in fact deteriorate over time. The general idea is that Concrete cures and hardens over time, which is true, however for Concrete roofing tiles the curing process lasts around 12 months from the time the tile is created.

Concrete tiles may also develop structural defects if they are moved onto trucks and roofs, and chances are they’re not leftalone to completely cure before being  used. These defects mainly show up many years after the tiles are installed and cannotbe rectified.

As a result, the tiles surface takes a hammering year in year out, with other things such as acid rain,wind and pollution Exposure to UV, and other environmental factors all contributing to the wear and tear of the concrete tiles surface.

Initially, the tiles surface will oxidise and become quite powdery; once the surface coating is gone, the sand cement component of the tile also becomes affected by way of erosion. The surface of the tiles ends up in the surrounding  gutter system and will soil in the gutter, limiting the flow of water to the gutters, down pipes, water tank and eventually gives cause for the gutters system failing.
