Engineered for extreme South Florida hurricane resistance and modern architectural distinction. Featuring concealed clip fasteners, marine-grade aluminum, Kynar 500 finishes, and a 50+ year lifespan.
A metal roof is an integrated building envelope defense system. Every layer from the structural framing to the custom-seamed ridge caps must perform under extreme atmospheric pressure.
All rotted wood is excised and replaced with minimum 5/8-inch 4-ply CDX plywood. Re-nailed with 8d ring-shank fasteners at 6-inch perimeter centers and 6-inch field centers to meet HVHZ 175+ MPH uplift schedules.
Direct-to-deck self-adhering modified bitumen underlayment with a high-temperature rating of 265°F. Prevents thermal degradation beneath metal panels and guarantees 100% watertight protection even during Cat-5 hurricane wind-driven rain.
Zero exposed screw penetrations on the roof face. Panels are secured using concealed stainless steel floating clips that allow seamless thermal expansion and contraction during intense South Florida daily sun-to-rain thermal shocks.
Continuous rolls custom-fabricated on our computerized roll-former to the exact millimeter dimensions of your eaves and ridges, eliminating horizontal lap seams and weak transition points.
Heavy-gauge aluminum perimeter flashings with continuous cleat locking. All transitions, valley centers, and sidewalls are triple-sealed with butyl mastic tape and mechanical counter-flashings.
Engineered baffle-integrated ridge vents expel trapped attic moisture and superheated air while mechanically blocking hurricane-driven windward water intrusion.
Select the optimal profile engineered for your home's pitch, coastal distance, and architectural styling.

Every metal roof replacement follows our rigorous Florida Building Code verified workflow from permit filing to municipal close-out.
All existing tile, shingle, or modified bitumen layers are removed down to clean structural timber. Our master carpenter inspects rafters, trusses, and fascia for concealed dry rot or termite degradation.
We re-nail all plywood sheathing using 8d ring-shank nails placed every 6 inches along trusses. We host the official city building inspector on-site to sign off on the structural deck verification before underlayment installation.
We install direct-to-deck Polyglass Polystick XFR self-adhering membrane with 3-inch side laps and 6-inch end laps, sealed with asphalt mastic around all pipe vents, chimneys, and wall flashings.
Using portable computerized rollformers, panels are formed directly from 24-gauge Galvalume or .032" aluminum coils on your driveway. This guarantees zero shipping dents and continuous full-length panels from ridge to eave.
Panels are secured with engineered clips and stainless steel fasteners. For mechanical lock profiles, our electric seamer folds each rib into a watertight 180-degree double-lock seam that cannot blow off in hurricane winds.
We accompany the municipal inspector for final permit closure and issue you an executed Form OIR-B1-1802 Wind Mitigation packet so you can immediately submit it to your insurance carrier for rate reductions.
Florida homeowners face some of the highest property insurance rates in the nation. Installing a certified standing seam metal roof triggers the highest allowable discounts on your annual windstorm mitigation schedule.
Meets Section 1 of Form OIR-B1-1802 for 2001 or newer Florida Building Code compliance.
8d ring-shank nails spaced at 6" along every framing rafter maximizes uplift resistance credits.
Self-adhered peel-and-stick Polyglass underlayment direct-to-deck provides maximum water barrier qualification.
Requires 2 replacements over 30 years + higher insurance premiums ($4,500/yr).
Single installation lasts 50+ years + 25% to 35% annual windstorm insurance reduction ($1,200/yr savings).
Complete tear-off of aged composite tile, deck re-nailing, and custom dark aluminum standing seam install with concealed clips.
Precision installation of continuous starter cleats, eave drip flashing, and Polyglass XFR secondary water barrier prior to panel seaming.
Heavy-gauge commercial roof drain clamping ring install ensuring zero standing water backup along low-slope metal roof tie-in curbs.
Substandard metal roof installations frequently fail in South Florida due to thermal tension, cheap fasteners, and dissimilar metal reactions.
Cheaper 5V-crimp roofs use exposed screws with neoprene washers. Under relentless Florida UV radiation, rubber washers dry-rot and crack within 7–10 years, causing hundreds of screw-hole leaks.
Inexperienced installers over-tighten clips, locking the panels in place. When panels expand under 140°F afternoon sun, the trapped metal warps and buckles into unsightly waves ("oil-canning").
When copper flashings or galvanized steel screws touch aluminum panels in moist, salty coastal air, rapid electrolytic corrosion destroys the metal sheet within months.
