Project Overview

A high-performance standing seam metal roof replacement completed in Homestead, FL 33033. Built to meet strict Miami-Dade High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) standards, this installation replaced an aging roof structure with a durable metal system designed to withstand severe tropical storms, intense sun exposure, and high wind uplift pressures.

The Challenge

Where the roof started

Homes in the 33033 zip code face relentless summer heat and severe storm threats. Transitioning this home to a metal system required total structural deck reinforcement, precision flashing work, and strict compliance with local high-velocity wind codes.

The existing roof had deteriorated over time, leaving the structure vulnerable to water leaks during heavy rain events

High wind uplift requirements in Miami-Dade required reinforced deck attachment and heavy-duty underlayment

Custom metal flashing was required along roof joints and valleys to ensure a seamless, 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

Heavy-duty concealed attachment clips and stainless steel fasteners

A durable, modern metal roof built for tough South Florida weather

The completed standing seam metal system provides this Homestead residence with outstanding curb appeal and an impenetrable, hurricane-resistant barrier engineered to deliver long-term peace of mind.

Project FAQ

Questions about this project

Why is standing seam metal roofing ideal for Homestead homes?

Standing seam metal roofs offer superior hurricane-rated wind resistance, reflect solar radiant heat to lower air conditioning bills, and feature hidden fasteners that prevent leaks.

How does a standing seam metal roof handle severe storms?

Because the panels interlock securely over concealed fasteners, there are no exposed screw holes for wind-driven rain or high winds to penetrate.

How long will a standing seam metal roof last in South Florida?

When installed according to Florida Building Code standards, high-quality standing seam metal roofs typically last 40 to 70 years with minimal routine maintenance.
