    Bob Hilson & Company’s Metal Roofing Services

    Bob Hilson & Company provides metal roofing services for residential and commercial properties throughout Miami-Dade County and the Florida Keys. Our team works on both existing metal roofs and new metal roofing systems, with services based on the condition of the roof, the building, and the needs of the property owner.

    Our metal roofing services include roof inspections, leak detection, repairs, panel replacement, complete roof replacement, and new metal roof installation. We also inspect flashing, seams, fasteners, penetrations, edge details, coatings, and other areas that commonly affect the performance of a metal roofing system.

    For older metal roofs, we determine whether localized repairs can address the problem or whether widespread deterioration makes replacement the better option. For new installations, we help property owners select a metal roofing system that fits the roof design, South Florida weather conditions, applicable wind requirements, and the desired appearance of the building.

    Why Choose a Metal Roof For Your Home Or Business?

    Metal roofing is commonly selected because of its long service life and resistance to many of the conditions found in South Florida.

    • Long Roof Life: Metal roofs can remain in service for decades when the roofing system is properly installed and corrosion is controlled. The actual service life depends on the metal, finish, installation, exposure, maintenance, and surrounding environment.
    • Strong Wind Performance: Metal roofing systems can provide strong wind-uplift resistance when the complete assembly is designed and installed correctly. In Miami-Dade County, the roof must meet applicable High Velocity Hurricane Zone requirements.
    • Resistance to Heavy Rain: South Florida roofs regularly deal with heavy rainfall and wind-driven rain. Proper panel seams, flashing, transitions, penetrations, and edge details help keep water outside the building.
    • Lower Maintenance Requirements: Metal roofing generally requires less routine maintenance than roofing materials with smaller individual pieces.
    • Sections Can Often Be Repaired: Damage does not always require replacing an entire metal roof. Depending on the roofing system and the extent of the problem, individual panels or localized areas may be repairable.

    Types Of Metal Roofing Systems We Install

    Metal roofing includes several different panel profiles, materials, and finishes. The right system depends on the building, roof design, budget, appearance, and required performance. Bob Hilson & Company  works with several metal profiles and roofing materials so the roof can be matched to your building. Our crews work in standing seam, 5V crimp, batten seam, snap lock, and metal shingle profiles, and we install every one of them to Miami-Dade High-Velocity Hurricane Zone requirements.

    Standing Seam Metal Roofing

    Standing seam roofing uses long metal panels with raised vertical seams. The attachment system is concealed beneath the panels on many standing seam designs, which reduces the number of exposed fasteners on the finished roof surface. It is a common choice for residential properties where the owner wants a clean, modern roof profile. Standing seam systems also work on many commercial buildings. Panel width, seam height, fastening method, metal type, and finish vary by manufacturer and system.

    5V Crimp Metal Roofing

    5V crimp is a traditional exposed-fastener metal roofing profile seen throughout Florida. Its recognizable ribs give the roof a different appearance from standing seam systems. The screws and washers remain exposed to weather, so installation and future maintenance deserve close attention. Fastener condition, seal integrity, panel movement, and corrosion all become part of the roof's long-term maintenance. 5V crimp remains a practical option for many residential, agricultural, and other sloped-roof applications.

    Batten & Snap Lock Metal Roofs

    Batten and snap lock systems provide additional panel configurations for properties where the roof design or architectural style calls for something other than a standard standing seam profile. The correct system depends on slope, roof geometry, substrate, local approval requirements, and the manufacturer's installation specifications. Hilson Roofing reviews those conditions before recommending a panel system.

    Metal Shingles

    Metal shingles give property owners another way to get the performance characteristics of metal without the long vertical panel appearance associated with standing seam roofing. Profiles and finishes vary considerably. We review available products against the building design, applicable approvals, and exposure conditions before the material is ordered. These options are more common when an HOA or architectural review board has an opinion about what the roof looks like from the street. The finished roof reads as shingles from the ground and carries metal's durability.

    Choosing the Right Metal for a South Florida Roof

    The panel profile is only part of the decision. The metal itself and its protective finish also affect how the roof performs over time. Common metal roofing finishes include galvanized coatings, Galvalume coatings made with an aluminum-zinc alloy, and painted finishes. Manufacturer warranties vary by product and finish.

    Coastal exposure deserves separate consideration. Salt air accelerates corrosion of roofing components, especially fasteners, flashing, cut metal edges, and other exposed areas. A system that performs well farther inland is not automatically the right specification for a home near Biscayne Bay or in the Florida Keys. Aluminum is one material often considered for coastal roofs because of its corrosion resistance. Coated steel is also widely used in South Florida when the selected system and finish fit the property’s exposure.

    Metal Roof Colors and Finishes

    Metal roofing gives homeowners a broad range of finish choices. The right color depends on the architecture, surrounding materials, homeowner preference, neighborhood requirements, and the products available in the approved roofing system.

    Finish choice also affects long-term appearance. Painted systems, Galvalume, galvanized metal, and other finishes age differently in South Florida sun and salt exposure.

    Metal Roofing and South Florida Hurricane Requirements

    A metal roof should be evaluated as a complete system. Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone requirements address how roofing products are approved and installed. Product approval, fastening patterns, roof deck attachment, secondary water barriers, edge conditions, and inspection steps all affect the finished assembly.

    Wind uplift is especially demanding at roof edges and corners. The exact attachment requirements vary with the product, building, roof geometry, and approved system. We install the selected metal roofing system to meet the applicable requirements for the property and approved roof assembly.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Metal Roofs

    In Miami, a metal roof typically costs about $12 to $20 per square foot installed for a residential standing seam system. That puts a 2,000-square-foot roof at roughly $24,000 to $40,000. Aluminum systems and more complex roofs can cost $18 to $25 per square foot or more. 

    Miami-Dade metal roofing tends to cost more than roofing in other parts of Florida because installations must meet High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) requirements. Approved roofing systems, enhanced fastening, secondary water barriers, permitting, and additional inspections can all increase the installed price.

    Hilson Roofing provides a project-specific estimate after evaluating the property. The estimate explains what is included so the owner has a clear basis for comparing the work. Financing is available for qualifying repair and replacement projects. We help homeowners review financing options and terms; financing approval comes from the lender.

    Manufacturers typically warranty metal roofing systems for 20 to 30 years depending on the finish. Real service life often runs well past that, but depends on installation, corrosion, maintenance, storm exposure, and the condition of flashing and other components.

    Metal roofing systems installed in Miami-Dade are tested to a 175 mph three-second gust, which is the county’s design wind speed requirement. That rating applies to the complete assembly, not the panel alone. Fastening pattern, clip spacing, underlayment, and edge metal all have to match the tested configuration.

    Not on a residential installation over solid decking and underlayment. The noise people associate with metal roofing comes from panels installed over barns and sheds, with nothing underneath to absorb sound. A house with a plywood deck under the panels sounds like any other roof.

    Yes. Seams, flashing, fasteners, coatings, penetrations, sealants, and roof edges should be checked periodically. Coastal roofs also need attention for early signs of corrosion.

    Yes. We install metal systems on commercial properties, including multi-story buildings, and we do a substantial amount of agricultural roofing around Homestead and South Florida.
