I wonder if we should run the numbers?? If we borrowed the money to replace the roofing with a metal roof would it make economic sense. Would anyone out there have lived in a house long enough to have installed professionally consecutive roofs in asphalt and remember what they had spent?? Verses a good idea of what a metal roof would have cost. Over time would the metal roof make sense even with borrowing money??.

For sure the third install should completly make economic sense.

Would the value of the home increase with the metal roof??

Yes I like the AC Hacker The First Book of Renovations: Thou shall not

1/ Under Insulate
2/ Allow air infiltration
3/ Not take full advantage of solar exposure.
