Project Overview

A high-performance residential metal roof replacement in Miami Gardens, tailored for maximum hurricane resistance and modern curb appeal. The project involved a complete tear-off, structural deck reinforcement, and the installation of a premium standing seam metal roofing system built to withstand Miami-Dade County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) requirements, extreme heat, and heavy rainfall.

The Challenge

Where the roof started

Miami-Dade properties face extreme wind uplift pressures and intense sun exposure year-round. Upgrading to a metal roofing system required strict compliance with local high-velocity hurricane codes, full secondary waterproofing, and precise panel interlocking to eliminate leak vulnerabilities.

Existing roofing material was deteriorated, increasing the risk of water intrusion during severe storms

Strict Miami-Dade HVHZ standards required enhanced deck fastening and heavy-duty water barrier protection

Complex roof angles and wall intersections required custom-fabricated metal flashings for a complete seal

Scope Of Work

What we did

Complete tear-off of old roofing materials down to the structural plywood decking

Deck inspection, replacement of damaged wood, and re-nailing to meet current Florida Building Code (HVHZ standards)

Installation of a high-temperature, self-adhering waterproof underlayment across the entire deck

Custom fabrication and installation of perimeter drip edges, valley liners, and wall flashings

Precise alignment and concealed-fastener installation of standing seam metal roof panels

Materials & System

What was installed

Florida-approved standing seam metal panel system (HVHZ rated)

High-temp self-adhering modified-bitumen underlayment

Kynar 500® coated corrosion-resistant trim and flashing components

High-wind heavy-duty mounting clips and stainless steel fasteners

Project FAQ

Questions about this project

Why is metal roofing a great choice for Miami Gardens homes?

Metal roofing provides superior resistance against high winds and storms while reflecting solar heat to lower home cooling costs in South Florida's hot climate.

How does a standing seam metal roof handle severe storms?

Standing seam systems utilize concealed fasteners beneath interlocked panels, protecting hardware from weather exposure and eliminating screw holes where water could enter.

Does a metal roof raise a home's value?

Yes. Modern metal roofs offer extreme longevity, lower energy bills, and increased storm resistance, making them a high-value upgrade for South Florida homeowners.
