there's a lot of really good youtube videos on metal roofing that can help you with your decision - i love how you can watch the details of the install. i almost put metal on mine but when i got to the cost and skill level to diy i had to say no. i did get the recycled rubber malarky legacy 50 year tiles out of Oregon though. i'm VERY happy with them. I did EXTENSIVE RESEARCH on every tile co before i chose and those were the ones with the highest thumbs up all over. i ended up having to crawl up there on my roof myself because the co i hired didn't have a clue what they were doing and just took my money. it was a disaster, but i finally did get the help i needed by some kind fellows who helped me finish it. my roof is so beautiful now i'm so happy with it and i'm also happy i got to have an eco element to it too.
my old roof had 8-13 layers on it --i can't remember i lost count after a while. including 2 layers of cedar. it was a mess.
