Built for salt, sun & the next storm to hit the Keys.

On a saltwater island, salt is the enemy. Aluminum doesn't rust the way steel can when the coating is ever scratched or cut, which is why marine-grade aluminum is the smart default for oceanfront and canal-front homes in the Keys. We still install premium coated-steel standing seam where it makes sense further from the water — but on the salt line, aluminum earns its keep.

A properly installed metal roof is one of the most wind-resistant systems you can put on a home. We build to Monroe County wind code — among the highest design wind speeds in the country, up to roughly 180 mph — with tested fastening, uplift resistance, and approved underlayment. The whole assembly is engineered to stay on when the Keys take a direct hit.

The flood zone mostly affects the structure below, but elevated and stilt homes catch more wind, so the roof's uplift detailing matters even more. We've roofed plenty of elevated and FEMA-flood-zone homes in the Keys and detail the edges, fasteners, and underlayment for that extra exposure.

Yes. We pull all required Monroe County permits and schedule the inspections. Keys roofing has strict wind-code requirements and product-approval documentation — we handle that paperwork so you don't have to deal with the county.

Absolutely. A lot of what we roof is vacation rentals and second homes, and we're used to coordinating around bookings and absentee owners. We schedule tightly, communicate by phone and email, and send photos so you know exactly what's happening even when you're off the island. Call (305) 842-2332 to talk timing.
