Tiles made today are manufactured from new larger molds that do not match the dimension of the tiles that would be found on older Shaker homes. Tiles matching the old dimensions are still manufactured but are more expensive. The City wants to create a database of every property in Shaker Heights with a tile roof so a local distributor may order special runs of the old tiles at a more affordable price.
