Project Overview

A full residential metal roof replacement completed in Homestead, FL 33030. Engineered to meet strict Miami-Dade High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) standards, this installation upgraded an old roof structure to a heavy-duty standing seam metal system designed to withstand extreme wind loads, severe heat, and heavy rainstorm events.

The Challenge

Where the roof started

Homes in Homestead face intense agricultural heat, strong coastal winds, and heavy seasonal storms. Replacing the aging roof required total structural reinforcement and precision flashing alignment to prevent water intrusion during extreme weather events.

The existing roof had deteriorated, exposing the home to potential leak paths during heavy downpours

High wind uplift standards in Miami-Dade required reinforced deck attachment and premium waterproof membranes

Custom metal flashing work was necessary along roof intersections to guarantee a 100% watertight seal

Scope Of Work

What we did

Complete tear-off of old roof coverings down to the structural plywood deck

Substrate evaluation, wood deck repairs, and re-nailing to satisfy current Florida Building Code

Installation of a high-temperature, self-adhering waterproof secondary water barrier across the entire deck

Custom fabrication and fitting of perimeter drip edges, valley pans, sidewall transitions, and ridge caps

Interlocking installation of standing seam metal roof panels using concealed clip systems

Materials & System

What was installed

Miami-Dade HVHZ-approved standing seam metal roofing panels

High-temp self-adhering modified-bitumen underlayment

Kynar 500® architectural finish for long-lasting UV and corrosion protection

Project FAQ

Questions about this project

Why is standing seam metal roofing great for Homestead homes?

Standing seam metal roofing offers unmatched hurricane resistance, reflects solar heat to keep home energy costs low, and features concealed fasteners that won't leak.

Does a metal roof withstand extreme summer heat?

Yes. Modern metal roofing systems are finished with solar-reflective coatings that bounce radiant heat away from the home, drastically reducing attic temperatures.

How long will a standing seam metal roof last in Homestead?

When installed according to Florida Building Code standards, high-quality standing seam metal roofs can last between 40 and 70 years with minimal upkeep.
