J Hotel Roofing

Owners of the new J Hotel in Dunedin, Florida, were seeking a roofing solution that could stand up to the unique challenges posed by being located right next to a bay in a harsh coastal climate. Working with Fluorogistx and Metal Roofing Systems, they determined a standing seam roof using COASTALUME™ would be the ideal solution. COASTALUME™ is an innovative roofing system combining the strength of U.S. Steel GALVALUME™ with the corrosion and fade performance of DuPont™ Tedlar® PVF film.

The COASTALUME™ system is a first-of-its-kind product that combines advanced materials to create a maintenance-free, highly sustainable roofing solution ideal for both residential and commercial uses. It is designed to withstand hurricaneforce winds, resist hail and other impacts, and offers unparalleled resistance to corrosion – ensuring that the roof will maintain its aesthetic appeal over time. Additionally, COASTALUME™ offers extensive warranties, including 25 years on the steel substrate and up to 50 years on the finish, with no freshwater rinse required  – very appreciated with multiple stories as is the case with the J Hotel.

Overall, the owners are very happy with the beautiful final appearance of the roof; with a focus on sustainability, safety, and long-term performance, the J Hotel certainly sets a new standard for future developments in coastal regions.
