This Fort Pierce Roof Makeover Is the Definition of Strong and Simple

Tired Tile, Constant Trouble

This story starts like many we hear—longtime Florida homeowners doing their best to keep up with an aging tile roof. The house, sitting pretty on Seagrape Fort Pierce, had weathered plenty of storms. But after two decades of blazing sun, pouring rain, and hurricane-season stress, the cracks started to show. Literally.

Mr. and Mrs. Taylor were finding broken tiles in their gutters, roof leaks in the guest room, and more than a few headaches when it came to patch jobs that just didn’t last. They wanted something stronger. Something better. Something that wouldn’t buckle every time the forecast turned ugly.

That’s when they gave us a call.

The First Visit: One Look and We Knew

When our crew rolled up to Fort Pierce, we already had a good idea what we’d find. Cracked tiles, soft decking, worn underlayment—yep, check, check, and check. What they needed wasn’t another repair, it was a full replacement.

We walked the Taylors through everything. No pressure, no gimmicks. Just honest options and smart solutions. And once we explained what a custom standing seam metal roof could do for their home? That was it. They were in.

Why Metal? Why Rhino?

We don’t just slap panels on a roof and call it a day. At Rhino Roofs, we manufacture and install every metal roofing system ourselves, right here in Fort Pierce. That means no middlemen, no cut corners, and no wondering who’s doing what.

The Taylors chose Sierra Tan—a clean, timeless color that bounces heat and blends beautifully with their soft green home exterior. And let’s talk performance: this Galvalume steel roof isn’t just pretty. It’s hurricane-tough, salt-air resistant, and built to outlast just about anything Mother Nature throws down here in South Florida.

Project Details: From Tear-Off to Turnaround

We stripped the old tile down to the decking, replaced what was rotted, and sealed it up tight with a double-layer high-temp underlayment. Every seam? Precision formed on-site. Every edge? Tight and clean.

The home’s valleys, ridges, hips—all reinforced and sealed. No exposed screws, no shortcuts. Just solid craftsmanship, start to finish.

You’ll see it in the photos:

• Sharp lines running seamless from ridge to eave
• No rust, no streaking, no chalking
• That sun bouncing off the panels like a mirror
• And that sweet, clean curb appeal—whew

It looks like a brand-new house, doesn’t it?

Before and After: Like Night and Day

From every angle—front, back, above—the transformation is clear. What used to be a weather-beaten, tile-cracking mess is now a head-turning, energy-saving metal roof with all the bells and whistles. And yeah, the Taylors noticed. They’ve already mentioned the house feels cooler, quieter, and more secure.

The best part? No more stress when a storm rolls in.

What the Taylors Said

“We wish we did this sooner. The Rhino crew was on time, cleaned up after themselves, and explained every step. The roof looks amazing, and now we don’t even flinch when it rains.”
– Mr. Taylor
