Roof Coverings C R Smith & Son Installs in Gibraltar
Not every roof in Gibraltar needs the same covering. The right choice depends on the building, the budget and the look you want, so here's how the two coverings we fit compare.
Natural Slate Roofs
Natural slate gives a traditional finish and holds up well to coastal weather when laid with the right fixings, suiting many of Gibraltar's older properties.

How it works
How Our New Roof Installation in Gibraltar Works
Out towards Gibraltar Point, houses stand on their own with little to shelter them, so here's how we put a new roof on one:
- 1
Survey and quote
We look at the covering, the timbers and which slopes take the weather from the sea and the marsh, then quote with the fixings written in.
- 2
Plan access and deliveries
With fewer neighbours and longer lanes, we arrange scaffold, materials and waste removal so everything arrives when it's needed.
- 3
Strip and re-cover
The old roof comes off, any damp or weakened timbers are dealt with, and new membrane, battens and tiles or slate go on with every course secured.
- 4
Seal and leave tidy
Ridges and verges are mechanically fixed to stand up to the wind, flashings are renewed, and the site is cleared before the scaffold comes down.

FAQs about New Roofs in Gibraltar
Does living on the coast affect what roof I should choose in Gibraltar?
Coastal wind and salt air put extra strain on fixings and exposed edges, so we pay particular attention to how a roof is fixed down, not just what it's covered in. We'll talk you through what holds up best for a Gibraltar property.
My house at Gibraltar stands on its own with nothing around it. Does that change the roof?
It can. A detached property with no neighbouring buildings or trees takes wind on every slope, not just the side facing the sea. We look at each elevation and specify fixings for the whole roof, rather than only the obvious windward side.
Can you re-roof the barns and outbuildings near Gibraltar as well as the house?
Yes. Many properties on this stretch of marsh have barns, stores or garages alongside the house. We can quote for them at the same visit and plan the work so the scaffold and skips only need to come out once.
Will wildlife near Gibraltar Point affect when my roof can be done?
Occasionally. Birds sometimes nest under old tiles or in the eaves, and an active nest is protected by law. We check during the survey and, if needed, plan the strip for when the nest is empty.
Do you offer a guarantee on new roofs?
We stand behind our work. Talk to us about the specific job in Gibraltar and we'll explain what's covered before we start.
Is the quote free?
Yes. Every quote from C R Smith & Son is free and written, with no obligation.
