our tile options
Heritage tile
The scalloped shapes of this profile give Gerard Colortile the style of a traditional terracotta roof but in a cleaner, uniform, more modern way. Many people choose Colortile to capture the look of heavyweight tile without its disadvantages. The profile is often seen with brick cladding on traditional homes. This roof isn’t limited to that aesthetic though and is equally appropriate above plaster or weatherboards.
Classic Tile
Gerard Tuffcoat is a geometric profile whose shapes and angles accentuate light and shadow to emphasise its corrugations and create a sense of strength and gravity. Often used on homes displaying clear, straight lines in keeping with a bolder, stronger-looking roof, Gerard Tuffcoat is appropriate on architecture where the designer seeks the definition to make the roof a feature in its own right.
Stratos Tile
Combining a flat plane with continuous irregular grooves, Gerard Stratos Tile has a recurring yet organic pattern that works with many styles of home. Perhaps because of its sheer versatility, Gerard Stratos Tile is New Zealand’s most popular steel roof panel. Seen on a wide variety of homes, from the rustic and rural to the urban and urbane, Gerard Stratos Tile is almost the ubiquitous pressed steel roof.
Milano Tile
With the balanced arches and flats found in traditional design, Gerard Milano is a timeless profile that creates clean, elegant and classical looking roofs. A Gerard Milano roof brings the timeless look of substance and solidity and makes a strong statement, especially on steeply pitched roofs. It is often used with traditional materials like masonry and timber.
Senator Tile
Gerard Senator is a profile with a modern look and subtle raised detailing. Senator is known for the simplicity and uniformity it brings to a roof. This roof embodies an understated quality that works with both contemporary and traditional architecture. The Gerard Senator profile has a distinctive vertical-ridge textured finish that adds refinement and helps give the roof a timeless character.
Oberon Tile
The Gerard Oberon profile has a unique depth. Its look changes with the angle of the sun and the intensity of light giving your roof a profound sense of solidity. A Gerard Oberon roof has a look that echoes an awareness of the grand homes of yesteryear. These roofs are often seen alongside dressed stone and natural timbers on properties of substance and homes on larger sections.
Rockport Tile
Among Gerard’s flattest profiles, Rockport lends your roof a sleek, linear look and is often used on clean, simple architecture with a modern bias. The Gerard Rockport roof sits low and light providing the perfect foil for popular postmodern house designs. You’ll recognise this contemporary look in suburbs, on coastlines, and in residential enclaves all over New Zealand.
Alpine Tile
Inspired by the look of Welsh slate, the Gerard Alpine profile brings a smooth, linear look while surface detailing adds a slightly rustic overtone. The Gerard Alpine profile has a simplicity that works with both contemporary and traditional architecture, giving the roof a continuous smooth pattern that can present a flat, almost seamless appearance when seen in soft light like on a cloudy day.
Trim options
Trim is an essential roofing element, for performance as well as appearance. Gerard manufactures roof trim components that are fully compatible with our range of pressed steel tiles. You can choose a trim that matches the finish of your Gerard roof exactly or a contrasting colour to create a specific effect. There are three kinds of roof trim, Angle, Barrel and Box. These feature both on hips of roofs and gable ends.
