Gerard Stone-Coated Steel Roofs

Beauty and Strength

A Gerard roof is a strong, 26-gauge metal armor that has been coated with Zincalume© corrosion inhibitors, resin coatings and other protective layers to provide a permanent roof product that will not crack, break or curl.

Known as stone-coated steel roofing, Gerard applies a thick coating of ceramically-fired earth-stone to give lasting beauty that resists the harmful effects of wind, rain, hail and snow.

Weight Reduction

At just 1.4 pounds per square foot, Gerard roof panels are up to eight times lighter that clay or concrete tiles, and four to five times lighter than "lightweight" concrete or fiber-cement products.

Structural Rigidity

The interlocking features of Gerard Tile actually improve the rigidity of a home in case of an earthquake, and also makes the roof incredibly wind resistant. Gerard backs this up with a 120 mph Wind Warranty.
