Residential Metal Roofing Services in Wellington, Florida
Zen Metal Roofs installs and replaces residential metal roofing throughout Wellington, including Olympia, Versailles, Aero Club, VillageWalk, and Greenview Shores. Our certifications come from Englert for standing seam and BTR for metal tile. Where a community association reviews exterior changes, we prepare that submission and file the village permit as part of the job. Call (786) 284-6994 for a free written estimate.
Most of our work is replacing an existing roof rather than roofing new construction. Homeowners typically come to us when the current roof is near the end of its life or has failed an insurance inspection.
Our crews install metal roofing exclusively. Every installer has at least 15 years in the trade, and co-founder Eduardo Garcia is on site for the installations.

Standing Seam and Metal Tile for Wellington Homes
We install two residential systems. Standing seam uses concealed fasteners and continuous vertical panels, with no exposed screws on the panel face. Details are on our standing seam page.
Metal tile is the system for homes built with barrel or Spanish tile where that profile needs to stay. BTR keeps that shape in coated steel at up to about a third the weight of clay or concrete tile, and the system carries a 60 year warranty. The full profile and color range is on our metal tile page.
Our standing seam specification in Wellington is 24 gauge Galvalume with a Kynar 500 finish. Metal tile uses BTR's own coated steel system rather than that specification.
"The Architectural Review Board often meets only once per month, and approvals can be subjective. I have seen a board object to a design when an identical one already existed on a neighboring home with an approved permit. We demonstrated consistency with the surrounding properties and obtained the approval."
Eduardo Garcia, Co-Founder, Zen Metal Roofs
HOA Approval for a Metal Roof in Wellington
Many Wellington neighborhoods have an architectural review committee that approves exterior changes before work begins. Each association runs its own review under its own governing documents, so what they ask for differs from one community to the next. We work from your community's guidelines rather than a generic checklist.
A typical submission includes the association's own application form, our Florida license and insurance certificates, and the product specification with its approval paperwork. Add a color sample and photographs of the existing roof. We put the package together and file it, and work does not start until the approval is in writing.
On whether a board can refuse a metal roof outright, Florida Statute 720.3035 is the provision that applies. It says an association cannot deny an application for hurricane protection that conforms to the specifications the association has adopted, and roof systems fall under that definition. Appearance standards still apply, which is why the submission matters.
Wind Ratings and Product Approval in Wellington
Wellington sits in Palm Beach County, outside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone that covers Miami-Dade and Broward. Roofs here are still built to the Florida Building Code as a tested assembly. The panel, clips, fasteners, spacing, underlayment, and deck attachment all have to match an approved product.
Every system we install carries current product approval paperwork, and we file it with the permit. That same paperwork is what a wind mitigation inspector asks for later, so you get the full file at closeout: permit, product approval, and inspection record.

Roof Replacement Process in Wellington
A replacement starts with a full inspection and a written estimate. Once the association approves and the village issues the permit, the old roof comes off and we inspect the deck while it is open. Any rot or damage we find is photographed and priced per sheet before work continues.
The home is sealed under a waterproof dry in the same day the tear off finishes. Panels follow, then the final inspection closes the permit. Permits are filed with the Village of Wellington Building Division through the village's online portal.
Why Wellington Homeowners Choose Zen Metal Roofs
Metal roofing is our only trade. We inspect first, then issue a written estimate that itemizes every line and names the product with its approval documentation. Neither step costs anything, and two story homes include a drone survey. Qualified homeowners can finance through PACE with no money down, repaid on the property tax bill. We handle the association submission and the village permit as part of the job.

Wellington Metal Roofing FAQs
Does my Wellington HOA have to approve a metal roof?
If your community has an architectural review committee, it approves the appearance of the roof before work begins. Under Florida Statute 720.3035, a board cannot turn down hurricane protection that meets the specifications the association has adopted, and roof systems count as hurricane protection. Boards still set standards for color and profile, so the submission needs to show the proposed system against those standards.
