Castilla Pan & Cover FAQ
What is the Castilla Pan & Cover tile?
Castilla is a traditional two-piece clay tile—often called mission tile—with deep roots in Mediterranean and Spanish architecture. Its bold barrel shape creates dramatic shadow lines and a truly timeless look.
Where are Castilla tiles made?
Castilla tiles are made in Spain, using high-quality clay and time-tested techniques that reflect centuries of Mediterranean roofing tradition.
What makes Castilla Pan & Cover tiles unique?
Each tile features a rich, weathered surface and a pronounced curve that adds dimension to any roofline. The handcrafted appearance gives it a rustic elegance that’s hard to replicate with modern alternatives.
What colors are available in the Santa Ana Castilla Mission tile?
This tile is available in a range of natural earth tones—from soft terracottas and sand shades to deeper browns and aged finishes. The color variation mimics sun-aged clay roofs found throughout Spain and the Mediterranean, offering a natural, weathered appearance without artificial coatings.
How are Castilla tiles installed?
Castilla tiles are laid in a traditional pan and cover pattern. The curved “pan” tiles are set concave side up to channel water, while the “cover” tiles sit convex over the joints. Proper underlayment, batten spacing, and headlap are essential for performance and longevity.
Are Castilla tiles suitable for restoration projects?
Definitely. Their authentic form and aged finish make them a top choice for restoring Spanish Colonial, Mission-style, and Mediterranean homes. They blend seamlessly with original materials.
Can Castilla tiles be used on new construction?
Yes! Castilla Pan & Cover tiles are often used on new builds to achieve a classic Mediterranean or Spanish look. They add warmth, texture, and character from day one.
Do Castilla tiles meet North American standards?
Yes — they are frost-resistant and comply with ASTM standards, making them suitable for a range of climates across the U.S. and Canada.
Can Castilla tiles be used in coastal areas?
Yes — these tiles are well-suited to coastal applications. Their dense, low-absorption clay resists salt air, wind, and moisture. That’s one reason this style has been trusted for centuries in seaside regions throughout southern Europe and California.
