Metal Roofing in Brunswick, GA Built for Coastal Weather

Eicher's Pro Vinyl installs metal roofing in Brunswick, GA with a 40-year manufacturer warranty, a 5-year workmanship warranty, and installations done entirely by our own employees, never subcontractors. When you live five miles from the Georgia coast in a Glynn County home that was likely built around 1986, you already know what a bad roof costs you when a storm rolls through. We have been doing this work since 1998, and we know the difference between a roof that looks good on paper and one that actually holds up along the Georgia coastline.
High Hurricane Exposure in Brunswick Means Your Roof Choice Really Does Matter
Brunswick carries a high hurricane exposure rating, and with wind gusts recorded at 40.9 mph on average, the question is not whether your roof will face serious wind stress, it is whether your roof is built to handle it. Many older asphalt shingle roofs in the Brunswick area, particularly those on homes built before 1990, were not engineered for that kind of sustained coastal punishment.
Metal roofing in Brunswick, GA changes that equation. Our Galvalume-coated steel panels use a Metal Construction Association certified substrate protected by aluminum, zinc, and silicone anti-corrosion coating. That matters here because salt air accelerates rust and corrosion on lesser materials. Galvalume grade 1 steel is specifically rated to resist that kind of coastal deterioration.
- Wind and weather-resistant panels that meet the toughest wind, fire, and impact codes in the country
- Lifetime installation screws, not standard fasteners that back out over time
- Standing seam options available for homeowners who want a fully concealed fastener system
- Virtually no rust or corrosion risk, even in Glynn County’s salt-air environment
With 42,091 housing units spread across Brunswick and surrounding Glynn County, plenty of roofs in this area are aging toward the end of their serviceable life. If yours is one of them, metal is worth a serious look before the next hurricane season arrives.
Does Metal Roofing Actually Hold Up in Brunswick's Heat and Heavy Rain?
Some homeowners worry that metal roofing might not be the right fit for a coastal climate that sees an average high temperature of 89.5 degrees Fahrenheit and roughly 44 inches of rain per year. It is a fair concern, and here is a plain answer: metal handles both better than most alternatives.
Brunswick’s 2,780 cooling degree days per year mean your attic is working hard all summer long. Metal roofing reflects solar energy rather than absorbing it, which reduces the heat load your attic deals with on a July afternoon. That translates into less work for your air conditioning system and lower energy bills over time.
On the rain side, our metal panels shed water quickly and cleanly. With six or more heavy rain days each year in the Brunswick area, you want a roof with minimal seams and no shingles that can lift, curl, or allow water to wick underneath. Eicher’s metal roofing systems are installed to create a continuous, secure barrier from ridge to eave.
The 40-year manufacturer warranty covers the material itself, and our 5-year workmanship warranty covers the installation. Both matter, because a good product installed poorly is still a problem. Our crew members are Eicher’s employees, trained in-house, accountable to us directly.

Brunswick's Very Heavy Termite Risk Is One More Reason to Rethink Wood-Based Roofing
Glynn County sits in a very heavy termite risk zone, which is not a surprise to anyone who has lived here long. What might be surprising is how often roofing decisions factor into that risk. Wood decking, wood fascia, and organic roofing materials give termites a foothold. Once they are in, they do not stay contained.
Metal roofing from Eicher’s Pro Vinyl does not feed termites. The Galvalume steel panels, the lifetime screws, and the overall system are not attractive to subterranean or drywood termite colonies the way organic materials are. For Brunswick homeowners who are already spending money on termite prevention and treatment, choosing a metal roof is one way to reduce one variable in that equation.
Brunswick’s high tree canopy coverage also means falling branches and debris are a real concern. Our metal panels are impact-resistant and meet national impact codes, giving you a roof that holds its own whether the threat is wind, rain, or a limb from the oak tree in your backyard.
- No organic material for termites or mold to work on
- Impact-resistant steel panels rated for coastal weather conditions
- Environmentally friendly and fully recyclable at end of life

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the warranty last on metal roofing you install in Brunswick, GA?
Our metal roofing systems in Brunswick carry a 40-year manufacturer warranty on the materials and a 5-year workmanship warranty on the installation itself. Brunswick homes face high hurricane exposure and an average of 44 inches of rain per year, so both warranties matter. The manufacturer warranty covers the Galvalume-coated steel panels, and our workmanship warranty covers how they were put on your home.
Does the metal roof warranty cover wind damage from Brunswick's coastal storms?
Our Galvalume steel panels are installed with lifetime screws and meet the toughest national wind, fire, and impact codes. Brunswick's recorded average wind gusts of 40.9 mph and its high hurricane exposure rating are exactly the conditions these systems are built for. The 40-year manufacturer warranty applies to the panels themselves, and our 5-year workmanship warranty covers the installation. For specific storm-damage coverage, we walk through all warranty terms during your free in-home estimate.
Will a metal roof hold up against the salt air and corrosion near the Brunswick coast?
Yes. Our Galvalume-coated steel uses a Metal Construction Association certified substrate protected by aluminum, zinc, and silicone anti-corrosion coating. Brunswick sits about five miles from the Georgia coast, which means salt air is a real factor. Galvalume grade 1 steel is specifically engineered to resist that kind of corrosion, which is one of the main reasons we recommend it over standard roofing materials for Glynn County homes. The 40-year warranty reflects that durability.
Does the workmanship warranty still apply if Eicher's uses subcontractors to do the Brunswick installation?
We do not use subcontractors. Every metal roofing installation in Brunswick is done by Eicher's Pro Vinyl employees, trained by us and accountable to us. That is how we can stand behind our 5-year workmanship warranty with confidence. Many contractors subcontract their crews and then struggle to stand behind the quality of work they did not directly supervise. That has never been our model in 27 years of business.
What happens to the warranty if I sell my Brunswick home after getting a metal roof from Eicher's?
That is a great question to ask during your free in-home estimate, because warranty transferability varies by the specific manufacturer product chosen. What we can tell you is that the 40-year manufacturer warranty on our metal roofing systems is one of the longest in the industry, and a transferable roof warranty is a genuine selling point in a Brunswick market where median home values are around $204,900. We will walk through the full warranty details with you before any work begins.
