The Benefits of a Metal Roof
- Durability and longevity: Metal roofs are incredibly durable, often lasting 40-70 years.
- Energy efficiency: Metal roofs reflect solar radiant heat, which may reduce cooling costs. This is particularly valuable in our humid climate, where air conditioning is so important.
- Low maintenance: Metal roofs are designed to resist corrosion, cracking, and shrinking, hopefully reducing the need for frequent repairs.
- Environmentally friendly: Made from recycled materials, metal roofs are 100% recyclable at the end of their life. This sustainability factor makes them an eco-friendly roofing option.
- Weather resistance: Metal roofs can withstand extreme weather conditions, including the high winds we deal with in Orlando, Kissimmee, and the surrounding area. They are also fire-resistant, providing an additional layer of safety for your home or business.
- Aesthetic variety: Metal roofing comes in a variety of styles, colors, and finishes, giving you room for creativity in customizing the look of your home. This versatility can enhance your property’s overall curb appeal.
- Lightweight: Metal roofs are significantly lighter than traditional roofing materials like tile or concrete. This lightweight nature can reduce the structural load on your home.
Commonly Asked Questions
What are the different types of metal roofs available for installation near me?
There are various types of metal roofs available for installation near you, including standing seam, metal shingles, metal tiles, and corrugated metal roofs.
What is the typical lifespan of a metal roof installed in Orlando?
Metal roofs installed near you can last anywhere from 40 to 70 years, depending on the type of metal used and the quality of installation.
Are there any specific maintenance requirements for a newly installed metal roof?
Yes, while metal roofs are known for their durability and low maintenance, a few key steps can help extend their lifespan and maintain their performance:
- Regular Inspections: Check your metal roof at least twice a year, especially after storms, to spot any signs of damage, loose fasteners, or debris buildup.
- Keep It Clean: Clear leaves, branches, and debris from the roof and gutters to prevent water buildup, which can lead to corrosion or leaks.
- Watch for Rust: While many metal roofs are rust-resistant, any areas where paint or coating is damaged should be touched up to prevent rust.
- Check Sealants: Inspect and replace any deteriorating sealants around joints, flashing, or penetrations, such as chimneys and vents, to maintain a watertight seal.
- Tighten Loose Fasteners: Over time, fasteners can become loose due to expansion and contraction. Ensuring they remain tight can help prevent leaks.
- Trim Overhanging Branches: Trees near your roof should be trimmed regularly to prevent branches from scraping the metal surface, which can damage coatings and paint.
By following these steps, your newly installed metal roof will remain in optimal condition for many years. Regular maintenance will ensure maximum performance and longevity.

Common Signs You Should Replace Your Metal Roof
As durable as they are, nothing lasts forever, and metal roofs are no different.
Here are some key indicators that it’s time to move forward with replacement:
- Visible rust or corrosion - While metal roofs are designed to resist rust, prolonged exposure to moisture and harsh weather can cause corrosion. It might be time for a replacement if you notice significant rust patches.
- Leaks and water damage - Persistent leaks or visible water damage within your home or office indicate that your metal roof no longer provides adequate protection.
- Loose or missing fasteners - The fasteners holding your metal roofing panels in place can become loose or go missing. This compromises the integrity of your roof.
- Severe dents or deformations - Falling debris can cause dents and deformations. If large sections of your roof are damaged, it can affect its performance and aesthetic appeal, signaling the need for a new roof.
- Age of the roof - Metal roofs have a long lifespan, but if yours is approaching or exceeding 40 years, it might be wise to consider a replacement. Regular inspections by our experienced pros can help determine if your aging roof is still effective.
- Frequent repairs - If your metal roof requires frequent repairs, the cost and hassle of ongoing maintenance can outweigh the benefits. In these cases, replacing the roof may be a more economical and practical solution.
- Fading or discoloration - Exposure to the elements can cause your metal roof to fade or discolor significantly. Not only does this impact your home’s curb appeal, but it may also indicate the finish protecting your roof is deteriorating.
Maintenance Tips for Your Metal Roof
Homeowners can take practical steps to help their metal roofs last longer.
Here are some best practices to follow:
- Clean the debris - Remove leaves, branches, and other debris from your roof and gutters regularly. Accumulated debris can trap moisture, leading to rust and other damage.
- Check the sealants - Inspect the sealants around the seams, fasteners, and flashing to ensure they are intact. Apply new sealant as needed to prevent water infiltration and maintain your roof’s integrity.
- Trim overhanging branches - Keep trees trimmed back from your roof to prevent branches from scratching or denting the metal surface. This also reduces the amount of debris that can accumulate.
- Address minor rust spots - Treat any minor rust spots immediately with a rust-inhibiting primer and paint. This preventive measure may be able to stop rust from spreading and prolong the life of your roof.
- Avoid walking on the roof - If you must access the roof, use proper safety equipment and walk gingerly on the panels’ lower sections where the roof decking supports them.
Our professional inspection program can further augment these sound DIY practices and help you maximize your metal roof investment.
