F.A.Q.

Why is a metal roof a superior choice compared to shingles?

Metal roofs offer numerous advantages over traditional shingles. They are known for their exceptional durability, longevity, and resistance to weather elements. Metal roofs can withstand extreme weather conditions, including hurricanes, ocean air, and fire. Additionally, metal roofs require less maintenance and can provide better energy efficiency, saving you money on cooling and heating costs.

Will a metal roof provide enhanced protection from extreme weather conditions, such as hurricanes, ocean air, or fire, compared to other roof types?

Yes, metal roofs are highly resistant to severe weather conditions. They can withstand strong winds, heavy rainfall, and flying debris associated with hurricanes. Metal roofs are also non-combustible, making them an excellent choice for areas prone to wildfires. Additionally, their durable construction helps protect against the corrosive effects of saltwater and ocean air, making them ideal for coastal regions.

What is a Florida Product Approval and a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance?

Florida Product Approval and Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance are certifications that ensure building materials, including metal roofing products, meet specific standards and codes set by the state of Florida. These certifications guarantee that the products have been tested and approved for use in Florida’s climate and comply with strict performance and safety requirements.

Do metal roofs leak?

When installed correctly by experienced professionals like Standing Metals Inc., metal roofs are highly resistant to leaks. Metal roofs are designed to provide a watertight barrier and withstand even the harshest weather conditions. However, proper installation and regular maintenance are crucial to ensure the long-term integrity and performance of your metal roof.

Is a metal roof noisy when it rains?

 Contrary to common misconceptions, metal roofs are not significantly louder than other roof types during rainfall. With proper insulation and installation techniques, any noise from rain or hail is typically minimal and comparable to other roofing materials. In fact, some homeowners even appreciate the soothing sound of rain on their metal roofs.

Is a building with a metal roof more susceptible to lightning strikes?

No, metal roofs do not attract lightning or make a building more prone to lightning strikes. In fact, metal roofs are non-combustible and can help dissipate the electrical charge from a lightning strike, offering an additional layer of safety compared to other roof materials. Proper grounding and adherence to local electrical codes are essential to ensure maximum protection against lightning.

Are there specific components available for metal roof installations?

Yes, at Standing Metals Inc., we offer a wide range of components specifically designed for metal roof installations. These include fasteners, rivets, clips, trims, and various accessories. Our components are carefully selected for their compatibility, durability, and ability to enhance the performance and aesthetics of your metal roof system.
