Metal Roof in Orlando, FL October 2026

What you are looking at

The first photo looks down the upper roof toward the side yard. The far plane sits in shade past a line of rounded caps, and three pipe vents come up through the tile on the right.

Stone-coated metal tile is sheet metal pressed into a barrel tile shape and finished with crushed stone granules. Up close the granules show as a fine speckle, and the color shifts from dark brown to tan piece by piece, so the slope reads as a blend.

From the upper slope, the courses step down to a lower roof section on the street side. One frame looks into a valley, the inside corner where two slopes meet and their water runs together. A narrow dark metal strip follows that seam, with the tile cut to its edge.

Rounded metal caps overlap up the hips in the same finish as the tile. Beside the top of one hip, two long, low vents with metal covers are still beaded with rain, and just below them two hip lines join in a Y.

On another slope, a pipe vent in a gray flashing collar stands beside a round hooded exhaust vent finished in dark brown.

August photos in the job file show the house under an older shingle roof, and progress photos show underlayment going down before the metal. The street outside curves past palms and shade trees, and the neighbors' roofs mix gray shingle with tile. Stone-coated metal gives the look of tile at a fraction of the weight of concrete or clay.
