Metal roof options

What types of metal roofs are there for Florida homes?

The two main types of metal roofs for Florida homes are standing seam metal roofs and metal shingles. Standing seam roofs use long panels joined at raised seams. Metal shingles are formed to look like traditional shingles, tile or slate. Both come in factory-coated finishes in a range of colors.

Planning a metal roof in The Villages?The Villages Architectural Review Committee reviews exterior changes to homes, according to The Villages Community Standards. Check your district's Architectural Review Manual before choosing a metal roof or color, and NB Roofs will help you compare options that fit.
  • Standing seam metal roofs

    Long metal panels that run from the ridge to the eave, joined at raised seams. The fasteners sit under the seams, which gives a clean, modern look.

  • Metal shingles

    Metal formed into shingle-style pieces that can mimic the look of tile or slate, for homeowners who want metal without the panel look.

  • Coated finishes and colors

    Factory-applied coatings come in many colors. Lighter and reflective finishes absorb less sun than darker colors.

  • Trim, flashing and underlayment

    A metal roof works as a system. Ridge caps, edge trim, flashing and underlayment are matched to the panel system you choose.

Our process

How does metal roof installation work with NB Roofs?

A metal roof installation or replacement with NB Roofs follows six steps, from the first roof assessment to the final inspection and cleanup.

  1. Assess the roof

    NB Roofs inspects the roof, the deck where it can be seen, and problem areas, then explains whether repair or replacement makes sense.

  2. Choose the system and color

    NB Roofs goes over standing seam and metal shingle options, finishes and trim. In The Villages, check Architectural Review Committee approval before work is scheduled.

  3. Protect the property and remove the old roof

    The crew protects landscaping and the outside of the home, then removes old roofing as the job requires.

  4. Repair the deck and install underlayment

    Damaged decking is repaired so the new roof has a solid base, and underlayment goes on to the manufacturer's specifications.

  5. Install panels, trim and flashing

    Panels, ridge caps, trim and flashing go on following the manufacturer's installation instructions and the Florida Building Code.

  6. Inspect and clean up

    A final inspection checks the work, and the crew cleans up the site, including metal scraps and fasteners.

Built for Central Florida

How does Central Florida weather affect a metal roof?

Central Florida weather puts a metal roof through hurricane season winds, strong sun, heavy summer rain and high humidity. For metal roofs in The Villages and Leesburg, this makes the panel system, fastening, seams, flashing and underlayment important, and each needs to be installed correctly.

  • Hurricane season

    The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, according to the National Hurricane Center. Each metal roof system has a tested wind rating, and it has to be installed the way it was approved. You can look up approved roofing products on Florida's product approval system.

  • Sun and heat

    Lighter and reflective coated finishes absorb less sun than darker colors, which can help with attic heat. Attic ventilation still matters under a metal roof.

  • Heavy rain and humidity

    Summer downpours test seams, fasteners, flashing and underlayment. High humidity is one reason coatings, sealants and fasteners are matched to the panel system.

Questions

Metal Roofing FAQs for The Villages Homeowners

  • How long does a metal roof last in Florida?

    A metal roof's lifespan in Florida depends on the type of metal roof, the panel system, the coating, installation quality and storm exposure. Each manufacturer publishes the expected life and warranty for its metal roofing products, and NB Roofs goes over those for the system you choose.

  • Is a metal roof good for hurricanes in Florida?

    How a metal roof handles hurricane winds depends on the panel system's tested wind rating and how it is installed. You can look up approved roofing products on Florida's product approval system. NB Roofs installs metal roofs to the manufacturer's instructions and the Florida Building Code.

  • Does a metal roof keep a house cooler in Florida?

    A metal roof with a lighter or reflective coated finish absorbs less sun than a darker roof, which can help with attic heat in Florida summers. How much difference it makes depends on the color, the coating, attic ventilation and insulation.

  • Can I put a metal roof on my home in The Villages?
