Metal roofs in Florida. A Modtek Project.
Metal roofs can withstand cruel climates and have the highest wind resistance rating of any other roofing system. They also do not absorb water and won’t split and strip under the sun’s destructive beams. For this reason, metal roofs in Florida are popular roofing materials among homeowners.
Here is recent Modtek roofing project in South Florida. When the homeowners approached our company, they had a clear objective; re-install a roof utilizing the best materials in preparation for the cruel Florida hurricanes.

The various styles of metal roofs in Florida.
- In previous years, most property owners were uneducated regarding the benefits of the metal roofing material. They typically leaned towards the aesthetics of a traditional shingle or other customary roofing.
Today, metal roofs come in all shapes. sizes, and colors. Traditional standing seams and interlocking metal shingles that resemble conventional asphalt shingles, are just a few examples.
With metal roofing materials, Florida homeowners no longer have to forfeit style and taste to take advantage of this advanced roofing system.
Metal Roofs in Florida are great investments.
Previously, property owners scoffed at the expense of metal roofs. which was generally up to two times costlier than shingle roofing systems. Now the price difference is only slightly higher, an investment that can payoff over time.
Metal roofs typically last much longer than conventional roofing systems. For example, most steel and aluminum metal material frameworks accompany a 25-to 50-year warranty.
A few other materials, for example, copper, can last as long as 100 years. As a result of their sturdiness, metal roofing systems require less repairs over time, thus saving homeowners money.
