How often should I have my roof inspected?

We recommend two inspections a year: one before hurricane season ramps up in early summer, and one after it winds down in the fall. Regular inspections catch small issues, like lifted shingles or worn flashing, before they turn into leaks or interior damage.

What are the signs that my roof needs attention?

-Watch for missing or curling shingles, granules collecting in your gutters, water stains on interior ceilings, daylight visible through the attic boards, or a noticeable sag in the roofline. Any of these is worth a call before Florida’s rain turns a small problem into a bigger one

How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?

– It depends on your roof’s age, the extent of the damage, and how much life is left in the current materials. During an inspection, we’ll walk you through exactly what we find, what’s driving the recommendation, and what each option costs, so you can make the call with full information

How much does a new roof cost?

-Cost depends on your roof’s size, pitch, material choice, and current condition, so we don’t quote pricing sight unseen. A free inspection gives us what we need to put together an accurate, itemized estimate.

How long does roof replacement take?

– Most residential roof replacements are completed in one to two days, depending on the size of the home, the material chosen, and weather conditions. Commercial and larger flat-roof projects take longer, and we’ll give you a specific timeline before work begins.

Will I need be home during the installation?

– You don’t need to be home for the work itself, though we do ask that someone be reachable in case questions come up. We’ll keep you updated throughout the day and walk the finished roof with you once it’s complete.

What roofing materials do you install?

-We install asphalt shingle, metal, and TPO flat roofing systems, along with tile repairs on a case-by-case basis. During your consultation, we’ll go over the options that make sense for your home’s structure, style, and budget.

Premium Metal Roofing Services in Lake County

The Lifetime Solution for Central Florida Homes

In Central Florida, your roof faces a relentless cycle of extreme UV heat, tropical-force winds, and torrential summer downpours. While asphalt shingles are a standard choice, Metal Roofing is the gold standard for durability, energy efficiency, and long-term value.

At Vedder Roofing LLC, we specialize in high-performance metal roofing systems that offer unparalleled protection for homeowners in Mount Dora, Eustis, Tavares, and Leesburg. A metal roof isn’t just a replacement; it’s an investment that can last 50+ years.

Why Metal Roofing is Superior for Florida Living

Many homeowners are making the switch from shingles to metal. Here’s why:

Hurricane-Ready Wind Resistance: Our metal systems are engineered to withstand winds exceeding 140 MPH, far outperforming standard shingle ratings.
Massive Energy Savings: Metal reflects solar radiant heat rather than absorbing it. Homeowners in Central Florida often see a 20-25% reduction in their summer cooling costs.
Longevity & ROI: While a shingle roof may need replacement every 15–20 years in Florida, a professionally installed metal roof can last 50 years or more, making it the last roof you’ll ever buy.
Fire & Mildew Resistance: Metal is non-combustible (Class A Fire Rated) and resistant to the unsightly algae streaks common on shingle roofs in our humid climate.

Our Metal Roofing Specialties

We offer several styles to match the architectural beauty of your home:

1. Standing Seam Metal

The premium choice for modern and luxury homes. Standing seam features concealed fasteners, meaning the screws are protected from the elements. This creates a sleek, watertight finish with zero penetrations to the metal surface.

2. 5-V Crimp

The classic “Florida Farmhouse” look. 5-V Crimp is a timeless, exposed-fastener system that provides incredible durability and a traditional aesthetic at a more accessible price point.

3. Stone-Coated Steel

If you love the look of Mediterranean tile or wood shakes but want the lightweight strength of steel, stone-coated metal is the perfect hybrid. It offers the beauty of traditional materials without the maintenance.

The Vedder Roofing Installation Standard

Complete Tear-Off: We never “nail over” old shingles. We strip the roof to the plywood deck to inspect for wood rot and structural issues.
High-Temp Underlayment: We install specialized synthetic underlayment designed to withstand the higher temperatures that occur under metal panels.
Precision Flashing: Most leaks occur at valleys and chimneys. We custom-fabricate all flashing to ensure a watertight seal in the most vulnerable areas.
Integrated Ventilation: We optimize your attic’s airflow using ridge vents tailored for metal systems, ensuring your home stays cool and your roof stays dry.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Vedder team was great to work With from start to finish. These folks were professional, thorough, kind, and great with their communication.  They handled three large shingle roofs on a commercial property. Definitely enjoyed working with them and will invite them to bid on more roofs in the future. It took me some time to get approvals so they came out ahead of time and did some repair triage work to get us until we were ready for the job to be completely handled. Thank you David. Thank you Dan. Billy

I felt very secure and confident during the whole process from start to finish which is a very important thing when you’re probably in a very vulnerable state if you’re needing their services in the first place. They reassured me the whole time and kept reminding me that they would take care of me and I didn’t have anything to worry about. I would recommend this company to everyone! Hands down one of the best experiences as a new home owner, exceptional service! Thank you Vedder roofing!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Vedder Roofing was very transparent, honest, and patient throughout the whole insurance process. Once we got to the point of scheduling the complete reroof, that process was just a simple. The crew was very mindful of our outdoor personal items, and kept the area clean and free of nails. The same day they started, they were done by dinnertime. I would highly recommend their roofing services.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My old 2-car garage had lots of termite damage and was poorly constructed in the first place.  Vedder replaced it with a new hurricane-safe garage. They completed it on time and on budget. They were also a pleasure to work with. I'm a happy customer!

Metal Roofing FAQs

Is a metal roof noisier when it rains?

When installed over a solid roof deck and high-quality underlayment, a metal roof is no noisier than a shingle roof. In fact, it often provides better sound insulation.

Will a metal roof attract lightning?

No. Lightning is attracted to the highest point, not the material. Because metal is non-combustible, a metal roof is actually safer if your home is struck, as it will not catch fire

How much more does it cost than shingles?

While the initial investment is higher (roughly 2x the cost of shingles), the long-term savings on energy bills, insurance premiums, and the lack of future replacements make it the most cost-effective choice over 30 years.

How long does a metal roof last?

A properly installed metal roof can last 40–70 years depending on the material, maintenance, and weather conditions.

Will a metal roof rust?

Modern metal roofing systems are designed with protective coatings that help resist rust and corrosion.
