Standing-seam metal roofs for Tampa homes

A metal roof costs more on day one and asks very little of you afterwards. For many Florida homeowners that trade is worth it.

Why people choose metal here

Metal reflects a lot of the sun that cooks shingle roofs, sheds rain fast, and when installed with the right clips and fasteners it holds up well in high wind. It is a natural fit for Old Florida style homes, farmhouses out toward Plant City, and anyone who simply does not want to think about the roof for a long time.

Standing seam, not screw-down

We install standing-seam panels, where the fasteners are hidden under the raised seams and clipped to the deck. Exposed-fastener panels are cheaper, but every screw is a washer that the sun will eventually crack. On a home, the concealed system is worth the difference.

  • Panels, clips and trim carrying Florida Product Approval for the wind zone
  • High-temperature underlayment under the metal
  • Vented ridge cap and proper flashing at walls and penetrations
  • A choice of galvalume or painted finishes

Questions about metal roofing

Is a metal roof loud in the rain?

Over a solid deck with underlayment and an insulated attic, most people notice little difference from shingles.

Does metal attract lightning?

No. Metal does not make a strike more likely, and it does not burn if one happens.

Can metal go over my existing shingles?

We prefer to tear off to the deck so it can be inspected and re-nailed, which matters for wind resistance.
