Shingled Screen Room Built with Composite Alumium Roof System

All Custom aluminum has just finished a solid roof screened room which incorporated an overlayment of osb and the application of shigles to produce a seamless look, while still taking advantage of all the benefits of building with aluminum. We wanted to enclose the space while maintaining an aesthetic appeal consistent with the home, and are pleased to have done both at a reasonable price, in only a few days. The secret is in our composite aluminum roof system, which incorporates all the elements of a house's ceiling, attic and roof into one, energy efficient, load bearing composite.
Built in a neighborhood known for its historic homes and quaint bugelows, this addition needed to conform to the existing architecture and blend in rather than stand out. In that regard, we mirrored the upper gable of the home with our gable projection, matching the pitch. Next we installed the aluminum framework and composite aluminum roof system. Our internally fabricated aluminum components allow for spans not typically seen with wood construction. And our components hold screen tight for years.

The shingles are set in the traditional nail down fashion, and serve to suppliment the finished impervious composite panels with even more redundant layers of waterfast protection. As importantly, shingling the roof provides that final touch that pulls together all the elements of construction into one synergistic whole. We use drip edge and provide 6" gutters on all our shingled additions, to provide a completely traditional look. No one has to know you used environmentally friendly, Energy Star rated green building materials, unless you want them to.

At All Custom Aluminum, our philosophy is to sell the best quality product at a reasonable price. So each of our jobs receives our best efforts, starting with our laser assisted layout and design process and ending when our team of longstanding industry professionals has cleaned up spic and span so that we have left nothing behind but a great job. Our crews bring a level of professionalism to the industry second to none, and our reputation for going the extra mile comes from their efforts at top quality customer service.

Since the deck is elevated, we use an approved safety screen below the chair rails to afford code compliate protection from accidents while maintaining an open view, free of pickets and multiple rails. Our design also allows for more interior volume because there is no need for attic space, as even electrical and fan conduits are internal and laminated inside the roof during the manufacturing process. Its just another way working with All Custom Aluminum brings you more options for less hassle.

New Metal Pergola Project

If this job site looks familiar, there is a reason. All Custom recently installed a complete set of insulated glass patio windows and doors at this residence. The customers were so happy with our work, they were kind enough to bring more of their business our way. They opted for the metal pergola system because of its superiority to wood products. Our metal pergola systems are produced with high quality finishes and high dimension materials which, because they are metal, will never rot, warp, twist, waterlog, or require painting.

Shading coefficients can be adjusted to the customer's preference. In this case, our crew demonstrated several possibilities so our customer could determine which spacing produced the desired look. Notice the contoured beam edges and cast fitted caps. Our design allowed for the inclusion of a structural aluminum super gutter contiguous with the pergola. This large guage extruded structural gutter serves as the attachment point of the pergola.

All Custom Aluminumn provides free consultation and design on all pergolas, glass, and screen enclosures. With over 17 years in business, we have the experience it takes to construct any pergola in a way that is both structurally sound and artfully rendered.

Custom Pool Enclosure

All Custom Aluminum is proud of our latest custom enclosure in the upscale Bobbin Brook subdivision of Tallahassee, FL. Even more so because of the challenging nature of the footprint, and the large size of the span. This bronze mansard style pool enclosure is a good example of what we term a "wrap around" style mansard roof system. We call it that because, by careful design and engineering, All Custom is able to produce a raised screen roof system which contours to fit oddly shaped slabs, in this case an "L" shaped design.
This project called for 2 by 10 inch extruded beams because of the span (over 46 feet at the long span). Although there were areas which would have met code with smaller dimension beams, we opted to expend the extra expense, time, and effort to keep all the beams at the 10 inch size for consistency. This way, even though the job is overbuilt in terms of strength, it maintains a uniform beam dimension throughout. Its just another example of how All Custom Aluminum goes the extra mile for our customers.
When it rains it pours, and the challenges of this job didn't stop with the wrapping mansard design and the outsize beams. All Custom constructed a series of transome screen walls on the house side of the structure to notch around multiple projections. And we worked around landscaping planters, lattice brick walls, and a multilevel spa. All in all, not the simplest enclosure. But one we are proud of. And for us, being able to walk away from each job with pride is what keeps us motivated.
