A Metal Roof That Looks Like Shingles
Premium metal shingles are stamped steel panels pressed into the shape of an architectural shingle, slate or cedar shake, painted, and locked together with the nails hidden under the next course. In a subdivision of shingle roofs, the street sees a crisp shingle roof. The roof itself is steel.
The best of them are sold as one system, with shingles, starter, trim, ridge caps and flashings from one maker, approved together. A few makers install only with their own crews, so one company answers for both the product and the work.

From Shingles to Metal
A metal re-roof in Orlando follows a set order: written quote, permit, tear-off down to the plywood, deck repairs, underlayment and a dry-in inspection, then the metal and a final inspection. Most of the difference between two quotes is hiding in the details of those steps.

Shingle Roof or Metal Roof?
Fixr puts architectural shingles at $4 to $8 a square foot with a 25 to 30 year life, and metal roofs at 50 to 70 years. Metal shingles keep the shingle look on a steel roof, which is why they're the usual metal choice in Orlando subdivisions.

Orlando Metal Roofing Questions
How much does a metal roof cost in Orlando?
HomeGuide's national averages run $5–$12 per square foot installed for 5V crimp, $6–$14 for metal shingles and $9–$16 for standing seam. A 2,000 square foot roof comes to roughly $10,000 to $32,000 depending on the type. See metal roof cost in Orlando.
Do I need a permit to put a metal roof on my Orlando house?
Yes. Inside the City of Orlando, a re-roof needs a permit from Permitting Services, with a dry-in inspection and a final. Unincorporated Orange County, Winter Park, Kissimmee and Sanford issue their own permits. The roofing contractor normally pulls it.
How long does a metal roof last compared with shingles?
Fixr puts architectural asphalt shingles at 25 to 30 years and metal roofs at 50 to 70 years.
Can my HOA say no to a metal roof?
Florida law counts roof systems that meet the Florida Building Code's ASCE 7-22 wind standard as hurricane protection. HOAs must adopt specifications for it and can't deny an application that meets them, though they can set color and style.
Can I put a metal roof on a house in an Orlando historic district?
Yes, with approval first. In Orlando's six historic districts, a roof needs a Certificate of Appropriateness through the city's free staff review before you apply for the permit, with photos and the product's maker, line and color.
Is Orlando Metal Roofer a roofing contractor?
No. It's a free referral service operated by FlashCat LLC. We connect you with an independent roofing contractor licensed by the State of Florida, which quotes the job, pulls the permit and does the work.
