Lightweight tile roofs using a single overlap of tiles between adjacent tile courses are protected from wind, rain, snow, ice, humidity and sun with a base layer of water resistant weatherproofing material and with a series of waterproof or water resistant shield strips. The shield strips are laterally spaced apart so as to underlie the cracks, joints or channels formed between the adjacent side edges of each pair of juxtaposed tiles. This double layer of weatherproofing material extends the useful life of lightweight tile roofs.
