Whether gable or hip roof, the limit for additional waterproofing for most tiles is at a 22° pitch. Below that, additional waterproofing is necessary. With this, a tiled roof can have a minimum pitch of 7°. Below that, it becomes a specially sealed flat roof. According to an architect in the family (although already retired), flat roofs are ALWAYS problematic and she would NEVER have built a flat roof. From my study, I can see the roof of our neighbor (flat roof bungalow, built around 1980), where water always stands on the roof. Even when it has been dry for 2 days. Last summer, he had the roof covered with new bitumen sheets.
