Why Oak & Anchor Uses Metal

Metal roofing has changed significantly in South Florida over the last decade. What was once considered mostly a commercial product is now one of the most requested options for residential homes — and for good reason. Standing seam metal panels lock together without exposed fasteners, which means no screws to corrode, no penetrations to leak, and no maintenance issues down the line.

Metal also reflects heat instead of absorbing it, which matters in a Florida climate with nine-plus months of cooling season. And when it comes to storm performance, a properly installed standing seam metal roof qualifies for the highest wind mitigation insurance credits in the state — which means real money back in your pocket every year.

We source all of our metal roofing exclusively through Metal Ops — a certified manufacturer based right here in Stuart, built specifically for South Florida's salt air, humidity, and hurricane demands. Six panel profiles. Thirty-plus colors. All Kynar 500® coated, all Florida HVHZ approved.

Best for

Climate

Engineered for Florida's coastal environment. Kynar 500® finish resists salt air, UV, and humidity. All profiles are Florida Product Approved for HVHZ. Consistently earns the highest wind mitigation insurance scores in Florida — meaning lower homeowner insurance premiums. Does not rot, rust, crack, or absorb water.

Home Style

Ideal for contemporary, coastal, and modern homes. Increasingly popular on traditional Florida and Mediterranean styles. Six profiles — from 1" nailstrip to 2" mechanical seam — complement both flat and steep rooflines. 30+ color options in neutrals, grays, bronzes, greens, and whites suit any architectural direction.

Value

Higher upfront investment with the lowest long-term cost of any roofing material. 40–70 year lifespan. Energy savings from heat reflection reduce cooling costs year-round. Insurance premium reductions from wind mitigation credits often offset the difference vs. shingles within 3–5 years.

FAQs

Are metal roofs noisy during rain?

No. Modern metal roofing systems installed with solid sheathing and underlayment are as quiet as any other roofing material. The noise concern is a common misconception from older, unsealed metal products.

Will a metal roof make my home hotter?

The opposite. Metal reflects heat instead of absorbing it. Our Kynar 500® coated panels — including dark colors — reflect significantly more solar energy than asphalt shingles, keeping your home cooler and reducing energy costs.

Are metal roofs prone to rust?

Not with modern finishes. Our Kynar 500® coating is specifically engineered to resist rust and corrosion — including South Florida's salt air. The steel is also galvanized or galvalume coated beneath the paint finish.

Do metal roofs attract lightning?

No. Metal is no more likely to be struck by lightning than any other roofing material. Metal roofs actually safely disperse lightning strikes when they do occur.

How long does a metal roof last?

40 to 70 years depending on the profile, material, and maintenance. That's three to four times the lifespan of a typical asphalt shingle roof.

Is metal roofing more expensive?

The upfront cost is higher than shingles. But when you factor in lifespan, energy savings, and wind mitigation insurance credits, metal typically has the lowest total cost of any roofing material over time.
