FAQs
What makes standing-seam metal roofing a good choice for homes and businesses in Ocoee’s climate?
Standing-seam panels have concealed fasteners and continuous vertical seams that shed water quickly, making them extremely watertight—an advantage during Ocoee’s frequent summer downpours and hurricane-season storms. The panels are also coated with reflective finishes that reduce heat gain, helping buildings remain cooler in Central Florida’s high temperatures and intense sun.
How long can I expect a standing-seam metal roof to last compared with asphalt shingles?
A properly installed standing-seam roof in Ocoee typically lasts 40–60 years, roughly double or triple the lifespan of standard asphalt shingles (15–25 years). The aluminum or galvanized steel panels resist rust, wind uplift, and UV degradation far better than asphalt, so you’ll replace your roof far less often and save on long-term costs.
Will a standing-seam roof withstand Florida hurricanes and high winds?
Yes. Standing-seam panels are mechanically seamed or snap-locked to the deck with hidden clips that allow the metal to expand yet hold tight under wind pressure. When installed to Florida Building Code requirements, these systems are rated for wind speeds of 140–180 mph—exceeding most hurricane categories encountered in Ocoee and Orange County.
Is metal roofing noisy during rain or hail?
No more than other roofing types when installed with modern underlayments. We place a high-density synthetic underlayment and optional acoustic insulation beneath the panels. These layers dampen sound, so rainfall noise is comparable to or even quieter than on an asphalt-shingle roof.
How much maintenance does a standing-seam roof require?
Maintenance is minimal. We recommend a visual inspection each spring and after major storms, clearing debris from valleys, and rinsing the surface annually with a garden hose to remove pollen or salt spray. Because fasteners are concealed, there are no exposed screws to back out or gaskets to replace, unlike other metal systems.
What color and finish options are available, and will they fade in the Florida sun?
Our standing-seam panels come in 30+ Cool Roof–rated colors, matte or gloss finishes, and even faux-wood or copper looks. We use Kynar 500®/PVDF paint systems with a 30-year fade and chalk warranty, ensuring your roof retains its curb appeal despite Ocoee’s strong UV exposure.
