Dormer Tile Tint

[Ellie31]

Hi there,

Has anyone ever used tile tint to make new roof tiles match the colour of older roof tiles? We have just had a dormer put in as part of a loft conversion but the tiles around the dormer do not match the roof tiles. Our Builder has said they will 'weather-in' and look like the rest of the roof in a year or two. I'm not convinced having read a few things online - can take up to 20 years for the tiles to weather in. Our existing tiles have weathered so much that they look a dark grey/black (originally they were dark brown). The dormer tiles are dark brown (concrete) and there is a clear difference.

Does anyone have any knowledge on this or the tile tint products?
