Florida Condominium Outfitted with 20,000 Mediterranean-Style Panels

By Tilcor Roofing Systems.

Tilcor roof tiles were the natural choice for a condo, subject to hurricanes, in Florida.

Florida is home to beautiful, picturesque white sandy beaches, sunshine 365 days of the year, and the most delicious oranges in the world.  However, Florida is also home to category 5 hurricanes and natural disasters.

Luckily, Tilcor Roofing Systems has the most resilient stone coated steel products on the market.  The durability of Tilcor products was one of the reasons why Aquarius, a condominium complex on Marco Island, Florida, chose Tilcor panels to replace their roof.  It was a big job, consisting of 20,000 panels, covering 15 buildings, with 150 total condo units.

Mariah Kern, our Southeast Sales Manager for Tilcor Roofing Systems, worked with ProCraft Exteriors on this job.  A 20,000-panel job is no joke— Aquarius is like its own little town. Desiree Parker, the Onsite Manager for Aquarius Condominiums, said that after installing the Antica Firenze, the roof really enhanced the aesthetics of the property and pairs with the landscaping really well.  The color profile really compliments the tropical Florida palm trees and the well-manicured shrubs placed around the complex, and makes the blue pool really pop against the roof’s color profile. Desiree said people, whether they’re renters, owners, her managers, or neighbors living in the area, are extremely happy with the way the roof looks.

Steven Desanis, ProCraft Office Manager, has nothing but excellent things to say about working with Tilcor.  He mentioned the overall experience with Tilcor has been “fabulous,” and they would highly recommend Tilcor to other roofing companies, especially if they do metal roofs.  Steven said that everyone ProCraft worked with at Aquarius are all very pleased with the roof.  

James Redd, ProCraft’s Roof Installer and Quality Manager, said he’s installed Tilcor roofs three times so far and has really enjoyed the process.  He loves the way the channel metal is with Tilcor roofs. James commented that the baton system allows plenty of room for air to breathe, which is extremely important in Florida with all the high winds caused by hurricanes.  He has also gotten positive feedback regarding Tilcor’s lifetime warranty and is happy he won’t have to repair that roof again in his lifetime!

Although Florida has been stricken with intense weather conditions year after year, contractors can assure their customers that a Tilcor roof will do its best to protect any building from damage.  The durability, lifetime warranty, and the beautiful aesthetics of the color profiles, make choosing Tilcor easy!
