Metal Coping in Kissimmee

Metal roofing and fabrication in Kissimmee, Florida, must contend with intense humidity and heat, common to Central Florida. While not directly on the coast, the region experiences significant hurricane exposure and can still be affected by salt air carried inland. The existing building stock varies, with many structures built in recent decades that may require specific considerations for integration with metal.

What to keep in mind locally

  • Ensure proper ventilation to manage high humidity and prevent condensation buildup under metal roofing.
  • Select corrosion-resistant coatings and fasteners suitable for Florida’s climate, even inland.
  • Consider the potential for high winds during hurricane season and ensure secure installation methods.
  • Evaluate the existing roof structure for compatibility with the weight and fastening requirements of metal.

What the work involves

This service involves the precise fabrication of custom metal pieces, typically from aluminum, steel, or copper, to fit the specific dimensions of a parapet wall. These fabricated sections are then installed along the top edge, overlapping the wall and extending down the interior and exterior faces to create a continuous, weather-tight seal.

When this comes up

  • When a building’s design incorporates parapet walls that require a durable and aesthetically pleasing protective cap.
  • To replace deteriorated or damaged existing coping that is no longer effectively shedding water.
  • As part of a new construction project to ensure proper termination and protection of parapet wall construction.
  • When seeking a long-lasting solution to prevent water infiltration and freeze-thaw damage at the wall’s vulnerable top edge.
