Why aluminum roofing for Gulf Coast homes
The biggest reason homeowners choose aluminum is simple: it does not rust the way steel can. Along the New Orleans and Mississippi Gulf Coast, where salt air and humidity never really let up, that can mean less worry about corrosion and maintenance over the life of the roof.
Aluminum also puts less weight on your home's structure. The honest tradeoff is cost: aluminum usually carries a higher material price than common coated-steel roofing, including galvanized and Galvalume steel. For homes close to the water, the higher price may be worthwhile when avoiding rust is the main concern.
TyMar Exterior is a veteran-owned contractor serving New Orleans, the North Shore, and the Mississippi Gulf Coast. We help homeowners weigh aluminum against other metal roofing options for their home, budget, and how long they plan to stay — then back it with a free, no-obligation estimate and straightforward guidance, not a sales pitch.

Standing Seam Metal Roofing
A Premium Metal Roof With Fewer Exposed Leak Points
Standing seam is the premium metal roofing option for homeowners who want hurricane, tropical-storm, and high-wind protection with a clean roofline and fewer exposed screws.
Fewer exposed screws mean fewer places for wind and rain to loosen seals over time. Standing seam hides those fasteners beneath the panels. One of our experts will walk you through whether that protection is worth the higher upfront investment for your home, roof shape, budget, and how long you plan to stay.
Our Standing Seam Roofs Come With:
- Hurricane Protection: Built to help protect your home during hurricanes, tropical storms, and high wind
- Fewer Leak Points: Rain has fewer exposed screw holes to find because the fasteners are hidden
- High Wind & Hail Resistance: Built for Gulf Coast storm conditions, wind, and heavy rain
- Extreme Durability: A long service life can help you avoid repeated asphalt replacements
- Energy Efficiency: Reflective finishes can help reduce heat entering the home
- Low Maintenance: Less ongoing upkeep than shingles that can curl, crack, or lose tabs
- Sleek Appearance: Clean vertical lines can make the roof look more finished and high-end

Metal Shingle Roofing
Traditional Roof Looks With Metal Roof Protection
Classic metal shingles are for homeowners who want a lifetime warranty and hurricane protection without giving up the look of shingles, shakes, or slate.
TyMar helps you compare the warranty, look, cost, and long-term protection of metal shingle systems. The roof stays tighter against wind-driven rain because the panels interlock, while durable metal construction helps reduce worries about curling, cracking, and repeated replacement cycles.
Our Metal Shingle Roofs Are:
- Backed by a lifetime warranty that one of our experts will explain during your estimate
- Built to help protect your home during hurricanes and tropical storms
- Built for a longer replacement cycle than asphalt shingles
- Designed to stay tighter against wind and wind-driven rain
- Made to reduce maintenance from rot, curling, splitting, and cracking
- Available in styles and colors that protect curb appeal

R-Panel Metal Roofing
Metal Roof Durability At A More Practical Price
R-Panel is a good fit when you want the strength and long life of metal roofing but need to keep the project more budget-conscious than standing seam.
The fasteners are visible on this system, so it is not the same premium leak-resistant design as standing seam. The tradeoff is lower cost, durable performance, and a straightforward look that works well for many homes, shops, barns, and outbuildings.
Our R-Panel roofs are:
- Budget-Friendly: A lower upfront price than many premium metal roof systems
- Tough and Long-Lasting: Can last decades when installed and maintained correctly
- Easy to Install: A simpler install can help keep project cost and timeline under control
- Versatile Look: Works for homes, shops, garages, barns, and other practical buildings
- Resistant to Wind and Moisture: Built to shed Gulf Coast rain and handle tough weather
