Thanks Dan - might be helpful for others - my roof should be about done by end of day tomorrow.

I chatted with the delivery driver and he said these metal roofs are pretty much all people are using for any construction near the coasts.

He said their company opened up an office in the Bahamas post Hurricane Dorian.

Their plant is located in the industrial park in Sebring. That's where the company I worked 10 years for has their Florida fertilizer plant. They have another in Ohio.

There's a whole bunch of info on the Internet on metal roofing. Also, most of these suppliers realize this is something many homeowners want to tackle themselves so some of them are set up pretty good to help the homeowner and as far as I can tell they are getting the same pricing as the contractor, which surprised me a little.

Will post more pics tomorrow when roof is done.
