The cost of a new metal roof will vary depending on many different factors. The most common factors roofing contractors consider when pricing out a metal roof are the size and design of the roof, the type of metal roof systems installed (exposed fastener, standing seam, or a stone coated metal roof system), the type of metal used (copper, galvanized steel, galvalume or aluminum), and the type of paint (Kynar or SMP) or lack thereof in the case of a mill finish metal roof. We know that you more than likely understand this. At the very least you understand that the size of roof will change the price of the metal roof. But you still need some answers so you can at least get an idea of what the average price of a metal roof is in Florida in 2024 for a home similar to yours. In this article we will provide you with an average price range for each type of metal roof system with and without the variations based on the size of the home and the pitch of the roof. In this metal roof price guide we are providing you with the average price range to replace a metal roof with the assumption that the roof is a normal design and a normal roof pitch that ranges from 3:12 to 6:12. Homeowners who have steeper sloped roofs will need to obtain in person bids to get accurate pricing.
Exposed Fastener Metal Roof Prices
An exposed fastener metal roof system is fastened to the deck or to battens using self-drilling metal roof screws in varying lengths depending on what they are being screwed into. The metal roof screws have a rubber washer that create a seal between the metal panel and the screw hole. In an exposed fastener metal roof system, the fasteners are visible and exposed to the elements. To learn more about exposed fastener metal roof systems follow the link.

Aluminum
Aluminum metal roof panels are usually recommended for homes along the Florida coastline where the metal roof will be exposed to the salty air. This is because aluminum is more resistant to corrosion and rusting when compared to galvanized steel or galvalume.
Most metal roof manufacturers only sell aluminum metal roof panels with KYNAR 500 painted finish. To go from a galvalume standing seam metal roof to an aluminum KYNAR painted standing seam metal roof, you are looking at spending roughly 260% more in material alone without profit margins being added. You can plan on spending anywhere from $2,000 per square to $2,700 per square to have an Aluminum metal roof painted with a KYNAR 500 coating.
| SIZE OF HOME | KYNAR PAINTED (Price Range) |
| 1000 SQ FT HOME | $28,641 – $53,160 |
