The Company Homeowners Trust
Metal Roofing Built for Florida Storm Season
Long-lasting, wind-resistant metal roofing installed by a veteran-owned team that will tell you honestly whether metal is the right fit for your home.
Built to Last and Built for Storm Season
A properly installed metal roof is one of the longest-lasting and most wind-resistant roofing options available, which is why it has become a popular choice across Central Florida. It is also a bigger investment than shingle, and it is not the right fit for every home. We will walk you through both sides honestly so you can decide with confidence.

What Metal Roofing Does Well
Long Service Life
Metal roofs often last 40 years or more depending on the panel, coating, and installation, well beyond a typical asphalt shingle roof.
Strong Wind Performance
Well-installed metal roofing is known for holding up in high wind, which matters every hurricane season.
Fire Resistant
Metal is noncombustible, and most metal roofing systems carry the top Class A fire rating.
Handles the Heat
Light, reflective finishes send more of the sun's heat away from your attic, which can help keep cooling costs down.
Low Maintenance
No granules to shed and no shingles to curl, so there is less to go wrong between inspections.
Possible Insurance Savings
Some insurance providers offer discounts for wind or impact-resistant roofs. Discounts vary by carrier, so ask your provider.
Metal Roofing Styles and Colors
Metal comes in more looks than most homeowners expect. The styles below are the most common, and we can source other options on request.
Standing Seam
Long vertical panels with raised seams and concealed fasteners. It has the sleekest, most modern look and the strongest weather protection of the three, and it is typically the highest-cost option.
Corrugated
A classic ribbed panel that is durable and more affordable. It is installed with exposed fasteners, which means the fasteners are worth checking periodically as part of your regular inspections.
Metal Shingle
Panels shaped to look like traditional shingles, shake, or tile, with the strength of metal. A good fit when you want the look of a conventional roof or when an HOA prefers it.
Is Metal Right for Your Home?
We would rather tell you metal is not the right call than sell you a roof that does not fit your situation.
Metal is a great fit if
- You plan to stay in your home for many years
- You have already replaced a shingle roof once and do not want to do it again
- You want the strongest wind performance you can get
- You want a lower-maintenance roof
- You want to ask your insurer about roof-related discounts
Think twice if
- Upfront cost is the deciding factor, since metal costs more than shingle
- Your HOA restricts roof materials or colors, so check before you commit
- You may sell in the next few years and may not recoup the extra cost
- You are concerned about denting, since large hail can mark some panels depending on the gauge
The Installation Matters as Much as the Metal
A metal roof only performs as well as it is installed. Proper underlayment, correct fastening, and carefully done flashing at every valley, vent, and wall are what keep water out and panels in place through a storm. We install to code with materials suited to Florida's wind requirements, and we review every detail with you before work begins. Curious how the process works? See our roof replacement page.
