I've sent an e-mail to Elliott but thought maybe someone may already know where to get matching replacement curved concrete roof tiles?

I replaced some last year. My contractor found them. I will ask him.
I also have a box of extra tiles in my garage...I will look to see if any are end pieces, but I don't think so. It was end pieces that were broke at my house also.

Thanks, Caligirlz! I appreciate it very much.

Sorry, when I said "curb" I meant "not flat", as in the image below (they are sort of a brown toned color). I don't actually need any right now, but just in case the roofer cracks/brakes any while installing the new Roof Cap, I'll be better prepared.

I will, though, probably need some end ones too though, as I plan to remove them all before putting a new coat of protector/paint on all the wood below them next Spring (I can already see bare wood)... I need to first figure out how to best remove those nails, hopefully, without breaking the tiles.

Those look like my tiles.
Last year I submitted the same question, and I think there were other suggestions then. Do a search or look back through the Broadstone discussions. :D:

Found the below 3 from your thread, thanks.
Any feedback from your contractor though?

1. Mark Moran, Superb Roofing, Folsom - (916) 357-5580
2. Folsom blvd just this side of Sunrise blvd on Citrus Rd - no name
3. http://www.theroofdoctors.net/ - they don't sell materials, no tiles

In addition, Dewitt from Elliott Homes told me he may have some laying around and, if not, try:

4. Rose Roofing & Supply (530) 823-3812 in Auburn

Well, with reassurance from my roofer, I don't think I'll crack/break any of my Half-Barrel tiles if I remove them by cutting the nails with a Sawsall. Since I don't have one, I'll do it with my Angle Grinder. And, when all said and done, I'll replace them with Aluminum Roofing Nails for easy cutting/breaking in the future.

Highly recommended "Tile Bone Yards" from the trade:
Zimmerman 454-3667
Zumwalt 978-9600
Rose Roofing 530-823-3812
and Dewitt at Elliott Homes 983-6821
