Metal Roof Over Existing Roof in Ocoee

Metal roofing and fabrication in Ocoee, Florida, must contend with high humidity and intense heat year-round. While Ocoee is inland, its proximity to the coast means occasional exposure to salt air, which can accelerate corrosion on certain metals. The region also faces hurricane exposure, requiring robust installation methods to withstand high winds.

What to keep in mind locally

  • Ensure proper ventilation to manage humidity and prevent condensation buildup under the roof.
  • Select appropriate metal alloys and coatings resistant to corrosion, especially if near coastal influences.
  • Verify that installation meets or exceeds wind uplift resistance standards for hurricane-prone areas.
  • Consider the age and structural integrity of existing buildings when planning new metalwork or roofing.

What the work involves

The process begins with inspecting the existing roof to ensure it is structurally sound and free of significant damage. If suitable, a layer of underlayment is applied, followed by the installation of the new metal roofing panels, which are typically fastened to the existing roof deck or to a newly installed purlin system.

When this comes up

  • When the existing roof has reached the end of its lifespan and requires replacement.
  • When the existing roof’s structure is deemed sound enough to support an additional layer.
  • When a building owner seeks to add the durability and longevity of a metal roof without the cost and disruption of a full tear-off.
  • When local building codes permit the installation of a metal roof over an existing layer.
