Tile is an expensive roofing material with costs that can range from 10 to 18 per square foot installed though more uncommon ceramic tiles can run as much as 30. Shingles made with fiberglass are lightweight and resist tearing. Composite shingles use either an organic or fiberglass base that is saturated with asphalt coated on the bottom side with asphalt and the exposed surface impregnated with small chips of slate schist quartz or ceramic granules. Even steeper are many mansard roofs and parts of gambrel roofs such as on barns which may have 20 in 12 pitches.

Organic asphalt shingles begin with paper often recycled that is saturated in asphalt and covered with granules. Clay tile is a very good roofing material for hot climates or where salt air is present which is why these roofs are seen so often in southern coastal regions or desert regions. Pitched or sloped roofs range from a moderately sloped 3 in 12 pitch to the 45 degree angle 12 in 12 slope commonly seen on a frame roofs. Roofing materials for pitched roofs include the following.
