26-Gauge Metal Roofing — Standing Seam and Exposed Fastener Systems.
Heavy-gauge 26-gauge panels in both standing seam and exposed fastener profiles. Kynar 500 finishes, stainless fasteners, and a 150+ mph wind rating. The last roof you'll ever need.
What's Included
The Florida Panhandle throws everything at your roof — salt air, hurricane-force winds, relentless UV, and driving rain. Metal roofing is engineered to handle all of it. Complete Roofing installs 26-gauge metal roof systems in two profiles: concealed-fastener standing seam (the premium architectural choice) and exposed-fastener ribbed panels (the workhorse, strongest price-per-square option). Both are rated for 150+ mph winds, finished with Kynar 500 / PVDF coatings for salt-air and UV resistance, and installed with stainless or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners spec'd for direct coastal exposure. With a 50+ year lifespan and cooling-cost savings of up to 25%, a 26-gauge metal roof pays for itself while outlasting every other roofing material on the market.
- 26-gauge steel — heavier than the builder-grade 29-gauge most roofers install

- Exposed fastener ribbed panels (R-Panel / PBR) with EPDM-washered screws
- Kynar 500 / PVDF coatings — best-in-class color and chalk resistance

- 150+ mph wind rating — exceeds Florida Building Code and HVHZ requirements
- Up to 25% reduction in cooling costs with reflective metal finishes
- 50+ year expected lifespan with minimal maintenance — available in 30+ colors
Metal Roofing FAQ
A properly installed metal roof lasts 50 to 70 years on the Florida Gulf Coast. With Kynar-coated panels and corrosion-resistant fasteners, metal roofs outlast traditional shingles by decades — even in our harsh salt-air environment.
No. Modern metal roofs are installed over solid roof decking and synthetic underlayment, which dampens sound. Most homeowners report no noticeable difference in rain noise compared to shingle roofs. Our double-layer underlayment adds an extra sound barrier.
Yes. Studies show metal roofing recoups 85–95% of its cost at resale and can increase home value by up to 6%. Buyers in hurricane-prone areas like Navarre and Gulf Breeze actively seek homes with metal roofs for the durability and insurance savings.
In some cases, yes — but we typically recommend a full tear-off so we can inspect and repair the decking underneath. A clean deck ensures proper fastener hold, eliminates trapped moisture, and gives you the full 50+ year lifespan metal roofing is known for.
