If I had a pitched roof I'd be signed up. How ridicules to be replacing these roofs every few years. I have had friends "hey come over this weekend, we're going to re-shingle" I got sucked in a couple times for a few beers, lunch and a big thank you.

Ashphalt shingles LANDFILL. Oh but yes there cheap. But 25 yr warranty RIGHT.

I am so appreciative to see alternatives now to this deplorable building material. Steel and aluminum roofs. NOT CHEAP but you don't have to go thru the re-roofing every 10-15 years if they last that long.

MN Renovator You have your roof replaced by the insurance co. for hail damage!!!???

For my home I decided on a welded PVC membrane flat roof. Warrantied 40yrs. No gutters to mess with and the scuppers can provide water catchment if you want but we just direct it to the field drain.

The roofs been on 20 yrs. and looks as good as new.

The solar roof, what a spectacular idea. Based on the square footage for my roof and what I have spent on my 10 kw solar. The solar roof is good value. Not to mention its a lifetime roof!!! and you get electricity ????!!!

If what is indicated by steve hull is true $2000.00/square!!! Great value.
