Historic districts near Crocker-Amazon may restrict covering type and colour, which is worth confirming before materials are ordered.
Lightweight tile gives Crocker-Amazon homeowners the look without the structural upgrade older framing would otherwise need. This holds across San Francisco County. Put simply, mixing materials across a Crocker-Amazon roof is fine provided each section gets the system it requires and the transitions are flashed properly. Concrete tile suits Crocker-Amazon buildings designed for the weight; laying it on framing that was not is a structural question first.
