When the homeowner in Lake Alfred wanted a fresh, long-lasting look to their roof, the A.O. Roofing team installed a new metal roof. Unlike your typical shingles, this 4,300-square-foot installation would showcase the strength, look, and longevity that metal roofs provide.
Homeowner Wanted a Superior Roofing Upgrade
Architectural shingles have their place, but metal roofing raises the bar. In this case, the existing shingle roof was sound, yet the owner wanted a style upgrade and ultimate longevity. Metal panels resist rotting, cracking, and UV breakdown, outperforming asphalt, making them a premium choice for homeowners who plan to stay at their residence for many years.
Metal Roofing Material Reduces Cooling System Strain
We selected a steel standing seam system in burnished slate. The concealed fastener design and smooth panels create a clean surface. Beyond looks, metal roofs reflect more solar radiation, reducing heat gain in summer. That translates to lower attic temperatures and less strain on cooling systems, especially in Central Florida’s climate.
Installation in Three Days
Despite being more complex than a shingle tear-off, our crew removed the old roof and installed underlayment-free metal panels in only three days. Precision layout, expert seam locking, and quality flashing work guaranteed a watertight finish. Fast turnaround meant minimal disruption for the homeowner.
Warranty and Long-Term Performance
This system comes with a 25-year manufacturer’s warranty, providing proof of confidence in the material’s lifespan. Steel panels can last 40 to 80 years or longer, with minimal upkeep, outliving many roofing alternatives. For homeowners focused on energy savings, durability, and curb appeal, metal roofs check every box and more.
Bringing It All Together
By choosing metal, this Lake Alfred homeowner upgraded to a roof that marries modern style with outstanding resilience. The combination of reflective surface, secure seams, and a bold color palette demonstrates how innovative roofing materials set new benchmarks. If you’re considering a high-performance, long-life roof, A.O. Roofing delivers expertise and precision.
