Get a written quoteA mix of eras means a mix of decking — plank, plywood, OSB — and a roofer needs to know which before pricing. Housing spans a century of construction, so the right answer changes street by street: re-deck on an older home, straightforward replacement in a newer subdivision. Separating the most recent storm's damage from older wear is what makes or breaks a claim on a roof that hasn't been inspected in years.
On cost: expect roughly two to three times the cost of architectural shingle for standing seam; exposed-fastener panels sit in between; the offset is a service life measured in decades and, in Florida, meaningful wind-mitigation credits.

How it works
Standing seam hides fasteners under the seam, so nothing penetrates the panel — that's why it carries the best wind ratings and longest warranties. Exposed-fastener (5V, R-panel) costs less and looks right on ranch and rural homes, but the screw gaskets need attention after 10–15 years.
Over a solid deck with underlayment, no louder than shingle. The tin-roof-in-a-storm sound comes from open-purlin barns with no decking.
