For hundreds of years, Slate – an incredibly hard fine-grained rock – has been used as a roofing material. Its strength is legendary, but the installation method is the same as clay tiles which means it takes a long time to install, it’s expensive, and over time the individual tiles can slip (especially during storms) and can sometimes crack, causing leaks. 

Gerard® has utilised our technology to create the desirable look of slate with none of the disadvantages of the traditional material. In fact, Gerard® Slate not only looks amazing, but benefits from all the usually Gerard® features such as alu-zinc steel, natural stone coating and our unique advanced coating technology.

Gerard® Slate is a unique profile that will make your house stand out from the rest. Available in a range of brand new colours, as well as some old favourites, and with or without patches. Make sure it’s Genuine Gerard® – all Slate tiles have the Gerard® logo printed on the back and are only available from Authorised Gerard® Distributors.
