BARTILE BARTILE IS A local, family-owned business that’s been perfecting the art of premium roof tiles since 1942. Incombustible, Bartile roof tiles far surpass a class-A fire rating and have a 75-year warranty. Some styles even have a class-4 hail rating.

“We can create a shake or slate tile that looks like the real thing but will last more than 75 years without the fire hazard or maintenance issues,” says Nick Evans, general manager.

7 2 5 N. 1 000 Wes t, Ce nt e rv i l l e 8 0 1 - 2 9 5- 3443 b a r t i l e .co m

“With our gable options, designers and homeowners can create a true shake or slate roof at a fraction of the price.”

In addition to manufacturing the tiles, they also provide expert installation services in Northern Utah. “Workmanship on a tile roof is key to its durability,” Evans says. “So we offer a warranty on tile as well as the installation.

We go one step further to make sure we get it right the first time.”

“We make one-ofa-kind dream roofs.

As the only custom tile manufacturer in the United States, we customize our roofs to meet very specific requests—and that keeps the business exciting.”

NICK EVANS / GENERAL MANAGER

Ask the Expert WHAT’S AHEAD? We have more than 700 custom colors, designs and textures, so we can literally create anything. If you see something in your travels, bring us a photo and we’ll make it for you.

EXCITED ABOUT: Yorkshire Cottage handmade tiles that recreate the look of both the rough hand-hewn slate and handsplit wood shake of old. With four different widths and varied lengths, Yorkshire Cottage tiles create multidimensional texture. And, they’ll last three times longer and can cost half as much as a wood roof.

FRESH IDEAS: Legendary Slate or Legendary Split Timber tiles are the ideal complements to modern or contemporary homes. Perfect for low-pitched roofs, these tiles create a free-flowing pocket of air that helps insulate the house and keep cooling costs down.

Marrying multiple styles into one project creates exciting design as well as functional spaces. We love incorporating European, mid-century modern, Asian, Mediterranean and Scandinavian influences in our work.

History is important in Utah, but many of our clients want innovation. So rethinking forms like gables, sheds or symmetry can produce exciting new forms that speak the language of history in a modern way.

FRESH IDEAS: Embrace the challenges: construction, budget, schedule and even style restraints.

Working within a box almost always produces something more unique than not having any parameters at all.

INSIDE OUT ARCHITECTURALS, INC. THIS IS NO ORDINARY SHOWROOM. Inside Out Architecturals is the ultimate art tile destination in Utah. From wood parquet to glass, custom mosaic to historical ornamental, its lines are sourced from more than 50 different global manufacturers.

Owner Leah Wynn and her team­—Anna Ayala, Sarah Pennington Booher, Sue Lindquist and Swarnali Satpathy—gather exemplary artisan lines to help clients recreate authentic designs.

The showroom is loaded with the latest trends and colors.

The print quality used to create porcelain tiles replicating other materials is so good they look like the real thing. “Sometimes you just need to touch it to see if it’s real,” says owner Leah Wynn. In the next few years, porcelain tiles that resemble wood parquet will be used in unusual places like steam showers. “You’ll look twice because of the atypical placement,” Wynn says.

Rare and precious stone are also being imitated more effectively. “These new tiles give everyone an opportunity to dramatically accent their spaces more economically,” she says.

Well, it’s back with a bit of pizzazz.

Dimensional, wood-patterned tile designs in both commercial and residential settings are wowing everyone.
