What You Get
Built Tougher. Engineered Smarter.
Every panel is custom-fabricated for your specific structure. No generic pieces. No guesswork.
Hail & Storm Armored
All three of our systems carry a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating — the highest available. That means engineered to withstand 2" hail at full velocity with no cracking, splitting, or structural breach.
Hurricane-Force Wind Rated
UL 580 Class 90 wind uplift — the highest UL rating — meaning our systems resist up to 105 psf of combined pressure. Installed to coastal building code uplift requirements on every project.
Custom Fabricated
Every panel is cut and formed specifically for your roof's pitch, run, and architectural details. Not a kit pulled from a warehouse — a system built for your exact structure.
True Cost Savings
One metal installation is the last roofing investment you'll make. No 15-year replacement cycles, no recurring repair bills — and lower energy costs every month from the day it goes on.
Eco-Friendly
30–60% recycled content, 100% recyclable at end of life. No petroleum-saturated materials, no landfill — and a Galvalume substrate that resists corrosion for decades without maintenance.
FLIR Thermal Inspection
We use infrared thermal imaging to find hidden moisture, heat loss, and deck failures before we fabricate a single panel. You know exactly what you're getting — before the work starts.
Our Metal Roof Systems
Four Systems. Every Budget. Every Look. Every Application.
From concealed-fastener standing seam to stone-coated steel that looks like a traditional roof — all four systems are installed to coastal building code uplift requirements and carry UL 2218 Class 4 hail and UL 580 Class 90 wind uplift ratings, the highest classifications available.
14″ Standing Seam Lock System
The premier residential and light commercial system. Field-formed panels lock together at a raised standing seam, fully concealing all fasteners. Zero exposed penetrations in the roof plane means zero leak points — period.
- Hidden clip system — panels float freely with thermal movement
- 24 gauge — thicker, stiffer, more oil-canning resistant than 26g
- Full-length continuous panels — no mid-roof seams
- Compatible with solar panel mounting systems
- Ideal for 3:12 pitch and steeper
40-Year Color Warranty (Kynar 500 finish) · 5-Year Labor Warranty · Galvalume substrate corrosion warranty
16″ Snap Lock Seam Metal
Factory-precision snap-lock profile that installs faster than mechanical seam — same concealed fastener advantage, same no-exposed-screw protection, at a lower cost per square without sacrificing rated performance.
- Snap-together field installation — no seaming tool required
- 16" panel coverage — fewer seams, faster installation
- 26 gauge Galvalume steel — excellent strength-to-cost ratio
- Full-length panels from eave to ridge
- Ideal for 2:12 pitch and steeper
40-Year Color Warranty (Kynar 500 finish) · 5-Year Labor Warranty · Galvalume substrate corrosion warranty
Master Rib Corrugated System
The industry-leading corrugated panel system. Extra-wide ribs increase structural rigidity and ease installation. The oversized siphoning channel on the under-lap rib delivers superior leak resistance in extreme wind and rain — proven across residential, agricultural, and commercial roofs.
- Bell-top trapezoidal rib on 9″ centers — maximum structural strength
- Extra-large siphoning channel — superior leak defense in driving rain
- 26 gauge Galvalume — proven corrosion resistance
- Exposed fastener system with 50-year screw warranty
- Suitable for solid deck or open framing, 3:12 pitch minimum
40-Year Color Warranty (painted finish) · 50-Year Screw Warranty · 5-Year Labor Warranty · Galvalume substrate corrosion warranty
Stone Coated Steel Roofing
The look of a traditional roof — shake, shingle, slate, or tile — with the structural fortitude of steel underneath. Westlake Royal Unified Steel is the only stone coated product in the U.S. to earn the FM Very Severe Hail (VSH) rating, which is double the force of standard Class 4 testing. We install the same product Erie Metal Roofs sells — for significantly less.
- Available in 4 profiles: Cottage Shingle, Pine-Crest Shake, Pacific Tile, Barrel-Vault Tile
- Ultra-lightweight at 1.5 lbs/sq ft — ideal for re-roofs over existing structure
- Above Sheathing Ventilation (ASV) system — reduces cooling costs, prevents ice dams
- Miami-Dade County HVHZ hurricane code approved
- 120 mph wind resistance warranty — Category 3 hurricane equivalent
- 100% recyclable Galvalume substrate with acrylic-bonded stone coating
- 50-year fully transferable warranty — stays with the house when you sell
50-Year Fully Transferable Warranty · 120 mph Wind Coverage · 5-Year Labor Warranty · Color, substrate & hail coverage all included
