GERARD stone-coated durable roofing were invented by the founder of Gerard, Louis Fischer, 63 years ago.

Roofs covered with Gerard tiles protect over 1 million homes in 130 countries around the world from earthquakes, hurricanes, extreme temperatures, and hail.

Warry-free roofing with a 50-year warranty

GERARD guarantees that for at least 50 years, our tiles on your roof will not lose their color, the stone chip coating will not fall off, the sheets will not corrode or rust, and nothing will crack from heat or frost.

Gerard tiles withstand the harsh climate without any consequences.

The first Gerard roofs were installed over 55 years ago and are still in excellent condition.

• Seamless installation at temperatures down to -15°C. Frost resistance up to -80°C.

• Horizontal fastening with 8 nails per panel. Very high wind resistance (tested under wind load equivalent to hurricane speeds of 160 km/h).

• Maintains integrity and color in all weather conditions.

• Even if dirt accumulates on the surface of the tiles, flora cannot penetrate beyond the base layer.

The best roof for the re-roofing
Re-roofing is truly our strong suit. Up to 45% of all Gerard tiles on the European market are purchased specifically for re-roofing, and there are reasons for this.

In most cases, when replacing a roof with Gerard, it is not necessary to change the rafter system, as our tiles are so lightweight that even an old and weak structure can support them. Moreover, Gerard can often be installed over an existing roof — and that is usually what is done.
