13 if you are REALLY lucky. More likely 8 to 10

Mine is only 13 years old and has a small leak already. I can't see the
back half of the roof from the ground, but the leak is in the middle,
not by the chimney flashing.

I watched them put it on and they did a good job. They used famous name
shingles, though I can't remember if it was Monsanto, 3M maybe.
Most are TERRIBLE unless you buy the ultra premium shingles.
NorthGate by Certainteed are good shingles that WILL last over 25
years.
