How a 1” Standing Seam Metal Roof Gave One Home Long-Lasting Protection

Insurance companies don’t call every day offering to replace your roof. But when they do, you’ve got one shot to make the right call—and this Port St. Lucie homeowner did just that. Instead of going with a basic shingle replacement that’d need another do-over in 15-20 years, they chose to invest in something built to last: a 1” standing seam, 24-gauge metal roofing system.
They wanted durability, efficiency, and a roof that not only protects their home but looks sharp while doing it. And, well, that’s exactly what we do best.

Why Standing Seam Metal?

Metal roofing isn’t just a trend. It’s the gold standard for homeowners who want peace of mind. This customer wanted a roof that could handle Florida’s wild weather—scorching sun, torrential rains, hurricane-force winds—you name it.
Standing seam metal roofing is:

• Hurricane-rated – Engineered to withstand winds up to 150+ mph. No flying shingles, no worries.
• Long-lasting – Unlike asphalt, which deteriorates over time, our 24-gauge steel resists rust, corrosion, and cracking.
• Sleek & Modern – That clean, seamless look? It boosts curb appeal and raises home value.
• Low maintenance – Forget constant repairs. Once installed, you’re set for 50+ years.
• Energy efficient – Reflects heat, keeping homes cooler and energy bills lower.

The Rhino Roofs Difference: Built Tough, Built Local

This wasn’t an out-of-the-box metal roofing job. We manufacture our own metal roofing right here in Florida, which means we control every step of the process—no middlemen, no delays, no excuses. We customized each panel for the home, ensuring a perfect fit and a seamless finish.

• Expert Fabrication – Precision-cut panels, bent and formed on-site for a snug, leak-proof installation.
• Concealed Fasteners – No exposed screws = no potential leaks down the road.
• Custom Trim Work – Details matter. Every edge, ridge, and valley was crafted to perfection.
• Thicker, Stronger Panels – 24-gauge steel is the premium choice for Florida’s toughest weather conditions.

The result? A Rhino Tough roof that not only looks incredible but will outlast just about anything Mother Nature throws at it.

Installation: Smooth, Efficient, Built for Life

This wasn’t a slap-it-on-and-go kind of job. Metal roofing requires precision. Our team removed the old roof, prepped the decking, and installed a high-performance underlayment for extra moisture protection. Every panel was custom-fitted, locked into place, and secured using our expert standing seam technique—no exposed screws, no shortcuts. Just pure, Florida-built resilience.
The entire process? Smooth. Clean. Efficient. Homeowner was thrilled. Neighbors were impressed. And best of all? This roof won’t need a replacement for decades.
