Stone Coated Steel
Stone coated steel roofing gives you the strength of metal with the curb appeal of traditional roofing styles. It’s a premium option that’s built for Florida weather—high winds, heavy rain, and intense sun—while still looking clean and “normal” from the street (not super industrial).
At Magnum Roofing & Restoration, we install and service stone coated steel roof systems with correct underlayment, fastening, flashing, and ventilation details—because premium roofing only stays premium when it’s installed right.

What Is Stone Coated Steel Roofing?
Stone coated steel is a metal roofing system made from steel panels that are coated and finished with stone granules. The result is a roof that’s tough like metal, but styled like shingles, shakes, or tile.
It’s a solid choice for homeowners who want a roof that’s durable, storm-resilient, and visually elevated—without going full “standing seam” look.

Benefits of Stone Coated Steel Roofs
High wind performance
Stone coated steel roofs are designed to hold strong in high-wind conditions when installed with correct fastening and edge detailing—important in Florida storm seasons.
Great curb appeal
You get premium style with multiple profile options (shingle, shake, tile looks), while keeping the strength of a steel roofing system.
Long-term durability
Stone coated steel systems are built for long-term performance and can be an excellent alternative to traditional materials that wear out faster in harsh climates.
Lightweight compared to some premium options
Compared to some tile systems, stone coated steel can provide a premium look while keeping weight considerations in mind (structure still needs to be evaluated).
If your roof was impacted by a storm, see: Storm Damage Repair.

Stone Coated Steel Roof Repair
Repairs depend on the roof’s age, system design, and where the issue is happening. We inspect the roof and target the problem—fasteners, flashing, transitions, penetrations, or storm impact zones.
Common issues we address
- Leaks around flashing, vents, skylights, and penetrations
- Storm-related damage to panels, edges, or ridge components
- Improper installation details causing water entry
- Wear at transitions or valleys
If you suspect a leak or storm damage, book an inspection: Contact Magnum Roofing & Restoration.
Stone Coated Steel vs. Other Roof Types
Choosing the right roof comes down to your priorities: budget, appearance, longevity, and storm performance.
Compared to asphalt shingles
Stone coated steel is typically a premium upgrade with longer-term durability and stronger weather performance compared to standard shingle roofs. Learn more: Asphalt Shingle Roofing.
Compared to tile roofs
Tile roofs offer premium aesthetics too, but are heavier systems. Stone coated steel can deliver a similar high-end look with different structural and performance considerations. Explore: Tile Roofing.
FAQs
Does stone coated steel look like a metal roof?
Not necessarily. Many profiles are designed to mimic shingles, shakes, or tile—so it often looks like a traditional roof style, just upgraded.
Is stone coated steel good for Florida storms?
It can be a great option, especially when installed with correct fastening patterns, edge detailing, and a strong waterproofing system underneath.
Do I need a full replacement to upgrade to stone coated steel?
Most upgrades to stone coated steel are done as a replacement. We’ll inspect your current roof and confirm what makes the most sense.
