Storm-tested
Built to take a Florida storm.
Guardian is a clip-fastened, mechanically-seamed standing seam system — the metal locks together instead of sitting under a nail.
It's been third-party tested past 325 MPH and engineered to exceed Miami-Dade code, the strictest in the state. When the next storm comes, the roof is the part you don't worry about.
- 325+ MPH tested
- Exceeds Miami-Dade code
Pays you back
A roof that pays you back.
A reflective metal roof keeps your attic cooler, which can lower your cooling bill through Florida's long summer.
A newer, longer-life roof can also help with your wind mitigation inspection and your homeowner's insurance. [TODO-CLIENT: insurance/energy savings figures — do not invent percentages.]
- Reflective cool roof
- Wind-mitigation friendly
Built to last
Decades, not years.
Asphalt shingles get replaced every 15-20 years. A metal roof is built to last far longer — which is exactly why Florida is moving toward it.
The Guardian system carries a 10-year leak-proof warranty, extendable to 50 years and transferable if you sell. [TODO-CLIENT: confirm current warranty terms with installer.]
- 10-yr leak-proof warranty
- Extendable to 50 yr · transferable

FAQ
Homeowner questions
What is the Guardian metal roof system?
Guardian (SL150) is a mechanically-seamed standing seam metal roof fabricated by Superb Metals in Central Florida. The panels lock together with a clip and seam rather than a nail, and the system is third-party tested past 325 MPH and built to exceed Miami-Dade code — engineered to be the last roof your home needs.
Can I buy a Guardian roof directly from Superb Metals?
Superb Metals fabricates the metal; a roofing contractor installs it on your home. Use "Find a Guardian Installer" and we'll connect you with a contractor who installs the system. They'll measure your roof, quote it, and handle the install with Guardian panels we cut to fit.
How strong is a Guardian roof in a hurricane?
The Guardian system is third-party tested past 325 MPH and engineered to exceed Miami-Dade code — the strictest wind standard in Florida. Because it's mechanically seamed, the panels lock together rather than relying on exposed nails, which is what helps it stand up to high-wind, wind-driven-rain conditions.
Will a metal roof lower my insurance or energy bills?
A newer, longer-life metal roof can help with your wind mitigation inspection and may reduce your premium, and a reflective metal roof can keep your attic cooler and lower cooling costs through Florida summers. [TODO-CLIENT: do not publish specific percentages until confirmed.] Your installer and insurer can give you exact figures.
How long does a Guardian roof last and is it warrantied?
A metal roof is built to last decades — far longer than the 15-20 years typical of asphalt shingles, which is why Florida is moving toward metal. The Guardian system carries a 10-year leak-proof warranty, extendable to 50 years and transferable to a new owner if you sell. Confirm current terms with your installer.
Is financing available?
Financing may be available through your installer. Ask the Guardian contractor we connect you with about payment options, or see our financing page for more. [TODO-CLIENT: confirm financing partner/terms before publishing specifics.]
