Project Details
This homeowner in Altamonte Springs, Florida, was looking to upgrade from aging shingles to a more modern, energy-efficient solution that could handle Florida heat and save money long-term. After reviewing several options, we installed a sleek standing seam metal roof that not only boosted curb appeal but also cut down their cooling bill dramatically.

What we did
From stripping away the old shingles to laying down the last clean panel, this project was all about performance, protection, and style.
Roof tear-off and preparation
Out with the old, in with the cool (literally).
Removed all existing asphalt shingles and felt underlayment
Installed high-temperature underlayment to reduce attic heat transfer
Repaired minor sheathing rot near eaves
Prepped roof deck for metal panel installation
Metal roof installation
We brought clean lines and long-term performance to life.
Installed standing seam metal panels
Used hidden fasteners for a sleek, clean finish
Added custom-bent flashing and chimney flashing
Installed ridge vents and sealed all seams with high-temp sealant
Challenges we faced
Every roof tells a story. This one had a few chapters.
Uneven roof decking from previous repairs required some leveling
The client’s original color choice was delayed, so we sourced locally and found a better match
Nearby trees required extra debris protection during installation
Why this project stands out
This wasn’t just a new roof; it was a full performance upgrade for the home.
The high-temperature underlayment + metal combo significantly improved energy efficiency
Custom touches like chimney flashing and upgraded ridge vents ensured year-round performance
The new roof gave the home a crisp, modern profile and boosted the property value immediately
Final result
The home now features a striking, low-maintenance metal roof that’s ready for decades of Florida weather, heat, hail, and everything in between.
