Frequently Asked Questions About Metal Roofs in Florida (FAQ 2025)

• Which type of metal roof is best for hurricanes in Florida in 2025?
  The most recommended is standing seam metal roofing, which withstands winds up to 180 mph. Stone-coated steel is also strong, resisting up to 160 mph. While 5V Crimped metal is acceptable, it’s less suitable for coastal areas.

• Can I install metal roofing over my old roof?
  No. According to the 2025 Florida Building Code, the old roofing must be removed to avoid structural and moisture-related issues and to ensure correct installation.

• How often should I clean my gutters in Miami?
  At least three times a year—in May, September, and December. In Florida, palm fronds tend to clog gutters faster than leaves, so consistent maintenance is especially important.

• Does maintenance void my roof warranty in 2025?
  Not at all. In fact, licensed contractors must perform regular maintenance to keep your warranty valid. Always save invoices and service records to prove compliance.

• How much does a professional roof inspection cost in Miami?
  It depends on the roof’s size and complexity. That said, many trusted providers—such as Roofing Nation—offer free initial inspections and include detailed evaluation reports.

• Can I inspect my roof myself?
  While a ground-level visual check can help, a professional inspection is highly recommended. Pros use safety gear, drones, and infrared scanners to identify hidden damage or moisture issues.

• What should I do if my inspection reveals damage?
  Your inspector will provide a clear report with photos, a diagnosis, and suggestions for repair or replacement. If your insurance covers the damage, they can help guide you through a claim process.
