Is Your Current Roof Failing?

Common Signs Your Lely Property Needs Metal Roof Installation

If your existing roof is approaching or has exceeded 15 years of age, you may already be noticing warning signs that indicate it's time to consider a replacement. Asphalt shingle roofs in Florida's climate often show premature aging due to constant sun exposure, with granule loss, curling edges, and visible deterioration becoming increasingly apparent. Many property owners discover leaks only after water has already penetrated the roof deck, potentially causing damage to insulation, ceilings, and interior spaces. Rising energy bills can also signal that your roof's reflective properties have degraded, forcing your cooling system to work harder during Southwest Florida's extended summer season.

Beyond visible damage, structural concerns may be developing beneath the surface. An aging roof deck might be experiencing rot or weakness from years of moisture exposure, particularly around valleys, eaves, and areas with poor ventilation. Missing or damaged flashing around chimneys, vents, and roof penetrations creates vulnerable points where water intrusion can occur. Storm damage from recent hurricanes or severe thunderstorms may have compromised the integrity of your roofing system even if the problems aren't immediately obvious.

Delaying necessary metal roof installation can lead to progressively more serious and expensive issues. Water damage rarely remains confined to the roof itself, often spreading to structural framing, electrical systems, and living spaces below. Mold growth in damp environments poses health risks and requires professional remediation. Insurance claims for preventable damage may face scrutiny if maintenance and timely replacement were neglected. Addressing roofing problems promptly with professional installation protects your property investment and prevents minor concerns from escalating into major repairs.

      Real Experiences from Lely Property Owners

      The best measure of our commitment to quality comes from the property owners who've trusted us with their metal roof installation projects. We've built our reputation one satisfied customer at a time throughout Lely and Collier County, earning recognition through the results we deliver and the professional service we provide. Rather than taking our word alone, explore the experiences of homeowners and business owners who've chosen Lely Metal Roofing for their roofing needs and discovered the difference that experienced installers and dedicated customer service can make.

      Our experience with Lely Metal Roofing was excellent. We were impressed with them beginning with our first interaction with Bobby (Sales). He was punctual, honest, and gave us options regarding various roofing materials. We opted for the metal 5V roof and are very very pleased with the product and the look - as he ensured we would be! The project started a few days ahead of schedule and was completed precisely when they said it would be. Ta'Riq, the supervisor on the job, was diligent and routinely updated us on progress throughout the installation. He narrated and shot multiple videos as he walked the roof and inspected the work of the crew. Ta' Riq's oversight and follow-up was impressive and appreciated. His entire crew was polite, efficient, and admittedly proud to work for Lely Metal Roofing. There are many roofing companies to choose from, but I can highly recommend Lely Metal Roofing - we were delighted with the work and what we felt was a very fair price.
      We recently had Lely Metal Roofing replace the roof on our home in south Naples, and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. From the start, they were on top of everything, providing me updates and photos at every stage so I knew exactly what was happening. There were a few unexpected repairs needed on the roof, during which Lely Metal Roofing provided constant communications, details and pictures before and after. Their crew very clean, in which we got complements from neighbors commenting on how clean the job site was. Highly recommend them.
      Lely Metal Roofing did an amazing job putting up our Christmas lights this year. Their team was prompt, professional and worked quickly to get the job done. Once they got started I decided I wanted more done than originally anticipated and they were happy to make it happen for me! I love the results and my kids are beyond thrilled with the Christmas spirit it provides! Thank you to an amazing team led by an amazing person Derric!
      Highly professional, detailed, thorough, and a pleasure to work with. Lely Metal Roofing staff, especially Karl Sheen and Nancy Thompson, made the job of replacing my entire roof easy and hassle free. They handled the insurance company expertly. The construction team was on time, they cleaned up afterwards, and the results are gorgeous! One small note: how many other roofing companies would start the job with a nice bottle of wine and a thank you note left on your doorstep?!
      Making those initial calls to a few roofing companies was somewhat scary. We had 4 appointments set and only 2 even showed up. One guy came and gave us a hand written quote without even getting up on the roof. Sean came on time, did a full inspection, and came back a couple days later to go over everything with us. Our roof was put on 3 week later and everything went according to plan! Sean was here in Naples for the installation and made sure everything was cleaned up when the crew was done. We are 100% happy and would recommend Lely Metal Roofing and Sean to anyone in need of a new roof!
      What a wonderful experience working with Lely Metal Roofing. Very professional, timely and a pleasure to work with. Always available to take calls. Would highly recommend them.
      I've heard all the Florida stories; needing a new roof immediately puts you into this nightmare of shifty contractors, unavailable products, long wait times, and broken promises, ugh. So I was prepared for the worst when Helene took some of our roof off. I did my due diligence; I checked with my city for licensed and approved contractors, I looked at google reviews, and I called the companies that made the tile and/or metal that I was considering putting on my roof to see who they recommended in my area. That's actually how I accidentally ended up finding Lely Metal Roofing-the tile company had sent me to a roofing company in Charlotte, NC instead of Charlotte County, FL. They were VERY confused when I called them, lol, but they strongly recommended Lely Metal Roofing, so I checked them out online and added them to my list of 3 companies to interview. Company #1 comes out and we get the hard-press-scare-you used car salesman sales tactics. This may work on the elderly, but it didn't sit well with us. Company #2 was solid but only sold aluminum metal roofs, which was our only option besides tile because we live on the ocean and if you look closely at the steel roof warranties they aren't so happy about coastal properties. Anyhoo, the aluminum roof was $25,000 more expensive than tile. For a 1700 sq ft house. Ouch. Company #3 was Lely Metal Roofing & Roofing. From the jump Bill was respectful, thoughtful, and asked a lot of good questions about what we wanted for a roof. He also went up on the roof and checked the existing damage from Helene. We told him we'd like three pricing options for tile, aluminum, and some fancy resin roofs out there that we were considering. His presentation was professional, quick, and balanced with the pro's and con's. One of the things we really liked was that their tile roofs are screwed on with stainless steel screws instead of nailed on with galvanized nails, which corrode and disintegrate in coastal areas in a few years. We also liked how detailed their price sheet was-we could see exactly how many stainless steel screws we were paying for. So we crossed our fingers and went with Lely Metal Roofing. Here's where the story really gets good-they consistently under-promised and over-performed. The tile I wanted was actually in stock, and instead of having to wait for months, it was on my roof within two weeks. The project manager, Ta' Riq, created a group text and consistently sent me live video updates FROM THE ROOF as they were working on it so when issues occurred I could make the decisions on what to do in real time rather than hearing about it later. Ta' Riq was also professional and consistent. We were prepared for what to expect with the tear off as Bill had gone over it with us very thoroughly. It was amazing how many people showed up, how fast they worked, and how nothing was damaged. The people working on the roof were also nice-when I was out walking our dog they'd wave to us from the roof lol. The materials that were promised in the contract were the materials that showed up on the roof. The underlayment of a tile roof is really what keeps your house dry, and I had done my homework about what kind I wanted (Owens Corning), and it was the same type Lely Metal Roofing recommended and installed. The teardown and dry-in was done in two days, and they hustled to get most of the roof on before we had a weird late season tropical storm. The next day they were back at it and had the roof done. All in all from signing the contract to the final approval from the city for a finished roof was about 2 weeks. That's freaking amazing. They were efficient, competent, and talented. My roof looks gorgeous. Our 27 year old house had its original roof on it and is surrounded by new, million dollar plus homes, and so we went from being "that house" to "look at THAT house so cute omg!" Again, I can't say enough good things about these folks and I'm still pinching myself that I have a beautiful roof and ZERO headaches about the entire process thanks to them.
      Bobby did an outstanding job helping me with my new tile roof. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and made the whole process easy. He's hands down the best salesman I've dealt with-his communication was excellent and he kept me updated every step of the way. Couldn't be happier with the service and highly recommend asking for Bobby if you're looking at getting a roof!
      The company I work for hired Lely Metal Roofing and we had a great experience. Their team was professional, easy to work with, and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. We truly appreciate their reliability and would definitely recommend them.
      Let me start by saying I have never felt compelled to write a google review. Having said that I have worked with dozens of contractors over the years and my experience with the Lely Metal Roofing team and Bill Demersky was the best experience ever. I contacted them 3 years ago to repair a leak on my 20+ year old tile roof on Marco. They did a great job on the repair but I was most impressed that Bill drove 7 hours round trip to a tile boneyard to match tile on a repair that was a less that $3000. Had another leak in a different spot this fall and decided to replace the roof. Bill gave me all the options on materials, worked with my design firm and we decided to go with the Worthouse metal tile. It turned out great but what was most important was the way Lely Metal Roofing managed the job. We live in Ohio so doing a remote project is always a bit tricky. The communication from Lely Metal Roofing is exemplary. Status updates we on time and they do a great job over communicating the step by step process. When on site they sent me multiple video updates daily of every step as well as real time calls from the roof while working. Everyone who worked at our house was professional, friendly, and communicative. Bill is always available on his cell by call or text. By far the best contractor I have ever worked with. I'm sure they are not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.
      Lely Metal Roofing fixed another roofing company's shoddy work. Another roofing company had completed installing our roof from a hurricane claim. While it looked great but lasted 3 years before a preventable leak occurred. That other company took shortcuts. My front bedroom ceiling became wet. I called the original company who (after much encouragement) came out and said they fixed it. A few months later the leak was even worse. I had to again repair the ceiling and walls. I recently learned of Lely Metal Roofing. When I called them, they came out and diagnosed the problem. They were reasonable with the price and took the extra effort to truly fix the situation. They were transparent and showed me the exact problem. They covered my roof right then to prevent further water intrusion and completed the repair within 2 days. No more leak. I recommend them with confidence. Great staff and great work.
      I never leave reviews. Ever. But Lely Metal Roofing saved me. I have an older home and needed a new roof and new roof deck. The other company was cheap. They ended up leaving me with a real mess. Lely Metal Roofing came in and fixed everything. It looks brand new. The crew is exceptional. The customer experience was phenomenal. I will never hire anyone for any work other than Lely Metal Roofing.
      I was SO pleased dealing with Nancy Thompson at Lely Metal Roofing!! She made the project so easy to deal with. The workmanship was wonderful and everyone was courteous. My new roof is perfect. Thank you for the wonderful job!!!
      I had a huge leak in my roof and Lely Metal Roofing rushed out to patch the issue immediately, saving my home from what would have been tons of water damage. Afterwards I got quotes from numerous local companies for a new roof and Lely Metal Roofing had competitive pricing and their people were great to work with so I went forward with them. It's been a year now and I didn't want to give them a review right away because I wanted to make sure the roof was good before giving them my seal of approval. Now I must say it's rained many times since I got my new roof and not a drop of water has entered my home. The roof looks great also. Would definitely recommend getting a new roof from Lely Metal Roofing.
      I don't even know where to begin! From the very first phone call to the initial meeting and throughout the entire process, I can't say enough about how AMAZING Bobby Rodgers and the Lely Metal Roofing Team were. The communication was outstanding - from our project manager who was up on the roof sending videos of the progress, to being included in a text chain with Derrick (the owner) and all parties involved right from the start. It gave us peace of mind knowing that if there was ever a question or concern, we could reach anyone immediately. From the tear-off, to completion, to the final clean-up - everything was absolutely TOP NOTCH. Thank you, Bobby Rodgers and Lely Metal Roofing, for such a GREAT EXPERIENCE.
      Bobby and Lely Metal Roofing were great to work with. Bobby in particular took a personal interest in our roofing project from start to finish. Final result awesome!
      5 stars to Lely Metal Roofing! Everyone involved from sales with Bill Demersky, Nancy Thompson, the owner Sean Dunn, to the roofer and gutter installers, all were polite, professional and organized. Special shoutout for Tariq who project managed the roof installation and kept me informed with pictures and texts throughout the process. Cost was on par with 2 other estimates but with Lely Metal Roofing, I felt relaxed and trusted the job would be done on time and as contracted. Job well done by professionals! Thank you!
      It wasn't a big job or huge opportunity, but Lely Metal Roofing came right over to make repairs to my roof when I was in need. The technician was on-time, friendly, reassuring and jumped right on the repairs. He did a very thorough inspection. I was very happy how quickly Lely Metal Roofing took care of my roof repairs.
      Sales process was informative. Start of the project was timely. Staff personnel were very nice and helpful. Ta'Riq was a very good project supervisor. And, it looks great!
      Lely Metal Roofing is an amazing company that not only provides exceptional quality in their work, but gives back to the community, St. Jude's Research and so much more! So here is my story I have to share. I have been a police officer for over 30 years and I have recently retired. I spent my last 5 years of service as a School Resource Officer in SWFL. A few months ago I reached out to the owner of Lely Metal Roofing, Derric Stull, for a roof quote. I knew Derric and his family through the school that I was assigned to protect. My roof is over 20 years old and I needed to replace it. Without my knowledge, Derric, nominated me for a roof replacement program for First Responders with Owens Corning, who is also partnered with The Gary Sinise Foundation. I was selected as the first recipient for this newly launched program! My new roof was just completed and my family and I couldn't be happier! All of the Lely Metal Roofing family is amazing and I would highly recommend them. A special thanks to the installation crew, Derric Stull, Sean Dunn, Nancy Thompson and Bill Demersky. You were all very kind and always professional throughout the entire process. Lely Metal Roofing, are truly a blessing in my life!

      Common Questions Answered

      Metal Roof Installation FAQs

      We understand that choosing a new roofing system represents a significant decision, and property owners naturally have questions about the process, materials, and what to expect. Our experienced team at Lely Metal Roofing has answered thousands of questions over the years from homeowners throughout Lely and Collier County. Below you'll find detailed responses to the most common inquiries we receive about metal roof installation. If your specific question isn't addressed here, our friendly and professional team is always available to provide the information you need to make an informed decision about protecting your property.

      Metal roofing systems are among the most storm-resistant options available for Florida properties. When properly installed according to Florida Building Code requirements, metal roofs can withstand hurricane-force winds that would damage or destroy traditional roofing materials. The key factors contributing to this superior performance include the interlocking panel design that creates a continuous weather barrier, mechanical fastening systems that secure panels directly to the roof deck, and the inherent strength of steel or aluminum materials. Standing seam metal roofing, in particular, features concealed fasteners that eliminate potential weak points where wind-driven rain might penetrate. Many metal roofing products carry ratings for wind speeds exceeding what most hurricanes produce, giving property owners confidence that their investment will protect their home or business during severe weather events. Additionally, metal roofing won't crack, corrode, or deteriorate from exposure to salt air in coastal areas, making it an ideal choice for properties throughout Southwest Florida.
      A typical metal roof installation begins with a comprehensive assessment where our team evaluates your existing roof structure, takes detailed measurements, and discusses your preferences for style, color, and features. Once you approve the project scope and timeline, we'll coordinate necessary permits and schedule the work to minimize disruption to your routine. On installation day, our crew arrives with all required materials and equipment. If you're replacing an existing roof, we carefully remove old materials and inspect the roof deck for any damage that needs repair. We then install appropriate underlayment to provide an additional moisture barrier before beginning metal panel installation. Our skilled installers work systematically across your roof, ensuring each panel is properly aligned, securely fastened, and sealed against weather intrusion. Special attention goes to flashing around chimneys, vents, and roof penetrations, as these areas require precise detail work. Throughout the project, we maintain a clean work site and protect your landscaping and property. Most residential installations are completed within several days, depending on roof size and complexity. After installation, we conduct a thorough quality inspection and complete site cleanup, leaving your property clean and your new roof ready to provide decades of reliable protection.
      Metal roofing offers significant energy efficiency advantages for Florida properties, particularly during our extended warm seasons. The reflective properties of metal roofing surfaces deflect a substantial portion of solar radiation rather than absorbing it like traditional asphalt shingles. This reflectivity reduces heat transfer into your attic space, which in turn reduces the cooling load on your air conditioning system. Many metal roofing products feature specialized coatings designed specifically to maximize solar reflectance and thermal emittance, earning them recognition as cool roof systems. Property owners often notice measurable reductions in cooling expenses after metal roof installation, with some reporting energy savings that help offset the initial investment over the roof's lifespan. Beyond the reflective benefits, proper installation includes appropriate ventilation design that allows hot air to escape from attic spaces rather than radiating down into living areas. The air space that naturally exists between metal roofing panels and the roof deck also provides an insulating effect. For property owners interested in maximizing energy efficiency, we can discuss additional options such as specialized insulation systems designed specifically for metal roofing applications. These energy-efficient characteristics make metal roofing an excellent choice for environmentally conscious property owners who want to reduce their carbon footprint while enjoying lower utility expenses.
      Metal roofing dramatically outperforms traditional roofing materials in terms of serviceable lifespan. While asphalt shingle roofs in Florida typically need replacement after fifteen to twenty years due to UV degradation and weather exposure, properly installed metal roofing systems regularly provide forty to fifty years of reliable performance, with some lasting even longer. This extended lifespan results from the inherent durability of metal materials and their resistance to the factors that deteriorate other roofing types. Metal roofing won't crack from thermal cycling, won't lose granules like asphalt shingles, and won't rot or decay from moisture exposure. The protective coatings applied to quality metal roofing products provide excellent resistance to fading, chalking, and corrosion, maintaining both appearance and performance for decades. This longevity translates to significant value over time, while metal roofing involves a higher initial investment than some alternatives, the extended lifespan means you'll likely never need another roof replacement during your ownership of the property. Additionally, metal roofing requires minimal maintenance compared to other materials. Periodic inspections to verify that fasteners remain secure and flashing remains properly sealed are typically the only ongoing attention needed. This combination of extreme durability, minimal maintenance requirements, and multi-decade lifespan makes metal roofing one of the most cost-effective roofing investments available when evaluated over the full service life of the system.
      The concern about noise from rain on metal roofing is one of the most common misconceptions we address. Modern metal roof installation techniques effectively eliminate the drumming sound that people associate with older metal roofs, such as barns or sheds with exposed metal panels. The difference lies in the installation method and the layers of material between the metal surface and your interior living space. Contemporary metal roofing installations include solid roof decking, an underlayment layer that provides sound dampening, and typically an insulated attic space with insulation. These layers work together to absorb sound energy before it reaches your interior spaces. Many property owners report that their metal roofs are actually quieter during rainstorms than their previous asphalt shingle roofs were. The solid deck attachment prevents the panels from vibrating, which is what creates noise on structures with exposed metal roofing. Additionally, standing seam metal roofing systems with their raised profile design provide an extra air gap that further reduces sound transmission. If sound reduction is a particular concern for your property, we can discuss additional options such as specialized sound-dampening underlayments or additional insulation that provides even greater acoustic control. The reality is that properly installed metal roofing on residential structures performs as quietly as any other roofing material while providing superior protection and longevity.
      Whether metal roofing can be installed over existing materials depends on several factors specific to your property and local building codes. In some situations, installing metal roofing over a single layer of asphalt shingles is permissible and can provide advantages such as reduced labor expenses and faster installation. However, this approach requires careful evaluation by experienced professionals. Our team assesses the condition of your existing roof deck, checking for any sagging, rot, or structural weakness that would need addressing before new roofing installation. We also verify that your roof structure can support the additional weight of new roofing materials installed over existing layers. Local building codes in Florida establish specific requirements regarding roof overlays, including limitations on the number of roofing layers permitted and circumstances where complete removal is mandatory. In many cases, removing existing roofing materials is actually the preferred approach, as it allows thorough inspection of the roof deck and ensures that your new metal roofing system starts with a clean, solid foundation. This removal also provides opportunity to upgrade insulation and ventilation, maximizing the energy efficiency and performance of your new roof. During your consultation, we'll examine your existing roof, discuss the advantages and considerations of each approach, and recommend the installation method that will deliver the best long-term results for your specific property.
