Languedocienne

The Ludowici Languedocienne mission barrel system brings the classic architectural elegance of the Mediterranean and South of France directly to your property. Characterized by generously curved terra cotta tiles, this system features tapered mission caps and pans with a smooth surface, creating a distinctive and timeless aesthetic. Its design is not only visually prominent but also engineered for practicality, utilizing a long-length tile that results in fewer pieces per square. This efficiency makes Languedocienne one of the most economical tile roofing systems on the market, reducing installation time and labor costs. The inherent qualities of terra cotta make the Languedocienne system exceptionally well-suited for the demanding DFW climate. Its natural resistance to extreme heat means these tiles will not degrade or fade under direct 100°F+ sun, maintaining their vibrant appearance and structural integrity for decades. The robust nature of the material also contributes to significant thermal mass, which can help regulate attic temperatures, potentially leading to improved energy efficiency for the property. This is a crucial consideration for homeowners in North Texas seeking to mitigate high summer cooling costs. Available in eleven color options, including a range of standard and special order finishes, Languedocienne offers considerable design flexibility. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for a variety of projects, from meticulously matching historical restoration efforts to providing a strong visual statement for new construction.
