Hello everyone,

we are at the house provider facing the choice of roof tiles (I have already learned here that the word means concrete and that the usual word Dachziegel probably refers to tiles made of clay, or maybe not?).

Only products from the company Nelskamp are available. In advance, the manufacturer also reads as a solid and good manufacturer here in the forum, right?
In the standard program, the shapes Sigma-Pfanne, Kronen-Pfanne, S-Pfanne, Finkenbeiner-Pfanne are available. All in the type Longlife matt. According to the manufacturer’s homepage, these are all tiles made of concrete. Is there a good argument that would justify switching to clay tiles and thus an additional cost?
Does anyone know these shapes and can say something about the differences? Of course, I have looked at them but hardly understand any difference. The only thing I could imagine from physics class is that the S-Pfanne might be more susceptible to wind because of an edge instead of a wave?
As for the look, I really don’t care, the roof has such a low pitch that I won’t see it anyway. So you could say, if there is a tried-and-true roof shape that lasts a long time through long experience and collects little dirt, I’m all ears for input.

Many thanks for your experiences

I'll also add pictures of the 4.

FINKENBERGER-PAN
KRONEN-PAN
SIGMA-PAN
S-PAN

Can anyone say more about this now?

I'll also throw in a question right away. Does the pan color make any difference to the indoor climate in a modern house? I'm building a cold roof, meaning the top floor ceiling will be insulated, but not the roof itself.

Concrete starts to bloom faster and collects moss more easily than brick, so bricks generally remain much more attractive for longer. That is the main difference for me. There may be others (weight, CO2 footprint, heating behavior...).

Basically, it is good if a roof tile / brick can be laid and shifted easily. There are differences here, which I would subordinate to the appearance.

No matter which Nelskamp product you choose, you will get - assuming a competent roofer and carpenter - a good and durable roof.

That's exactly right!
If you also have a flat roof, I would definitely go for clay tiles.

Hello everyone!

Thanks already for your answers!


Well, that already makes me feel positive! Thanks for confirming my suspicion about Nelskamp.

Of course, the downside is the fact that all the tiles offered to me at no extra cost are made of concrete. Now I should actually inquire about the price difference to clay tiles. Theoretically, I might not care about the look since I will never see it, but of course, you want to be fair to the neighbors above me ;).
Another point is that I just visited Nelskamp's homepage and saw that they have 23 different shapes of clay roof tiles! I was already overwhelmed by the 4 concrete tiles available to me :eek:.

How do you make a decision here? (And why is there even so much choice??) o_O

The topic of heat buildup might also be an issue, are clay tiles the better choice here too? Is black perhaps disadvantageous here, since that was pretty much the only thing I had decided on directly.
Does it make a difference if I plan to cover as much as possible with photovoltaics?


What is a flat roof? Do you still count 22 degrees as flat?


Questions and more questions, and with such a seemingly simple topic as roofing... :rolleyes:

At the beginning of 2018, you posted a picture of your roof and wrote that it is the Nelskamp Sigma tile:

and , for you, there were a few pictures of the Finkenberger tile in mid-2019:

Do you both perhaps have more recent pictures specifically of the roof? How satisfied are you with your choice after these few years?
