For what purpose? Around here it's installed on roofs to protect
against
ice damming.
And per code it has to be installed up the roof plane from the
lower
edge
until
it's 2 feet past the inside heated space below. Maybe that's where
your
2 feet is
coming from?

Here they want the membrane to cover the entire roof.
This is what I needed on my addition.

It is so, when the hurricane blows the shingles off, you still have
a
roof.

Makes a lot more sense to have metal decking instead of stupid
shingles.

About $20 thousand more.
BULL****.

Do tell us about your extensive experience in the American roofing
industry.

The only way metal roofs are not significantly more expensive is if
you use "barn roofing" - AKA sheet steel - which is a common roof in
rural Australia


Would you be referring to corrugated galvanized roofing ? We used5 rib
27ga steel , with a 40 year warranty . Cost with me installing was a
little more than having someone else apply shingles - which would have a
shorter warranty period and no protection from hot embers (very rare but
...) coming from the wood stove . Green is a very popular color out here
in the woods ...

Yup - Barn Roof .Can be galvanized or galvalume - or aluminum.
Several different profiles but generally installed as single sheets
vertically the length of the roof - 4 feet wide, more or less.

Nobody does it like that on house roofs here anymore.
