Before & After: Transforming a Loxahatchee Home with a Dove‑Gray 24‑Gauge Metal Roof

What’s the most expensive roof you’ll ever own?

Answer: The one you have to buy twice.


>>This homeowner won’t have to worry about that.<<


Check out these before and after photos — they tell the whole story. 


We installed a 1.5" Mechanical Seam metal roof, 24‑gauge Dove Gray, fabricated by Dynamic Metals, LLC. Beneath it is Polyglass USA MTS Plus, installed direct‑to‑deck and backed by a 30‑year material warranty — the kind of foundation that makes a roof feel anchored rather than simply attached. A new ridge vent completes the assembly, giving the attic the airflow it needs to stay cool, dry, and predictable in every season.


These photos were taken recently — one year after completion — and the system is doing exactly what a premium standing‑seam roof should do: hold its lines, keep its color, and shrug off the seasonal debris that comes with living under Florida pines.



And as always, every Joe Ward Roofing installation carries our 7‑year workmanship warranty, because durability isn’t a claim — it’s a promise.
