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.

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

I installes Certainteed Northgate for the same reason. I could
rationalize spending more for premium shingles, but not as much more
as a GOOD metal roof would have coar and I wasn't about to waste money
on a crappy metal roof that would look like crap within 10 years or
one that looked terrible the day it was installed (barn roof)

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 ...

for the metal roof.


I have about 20 years to go before I die, maybe a bit more. Why should I
pay for a roof that will outlive me by 50 years?


Yeah, that was kinda my point. I would like to think that I have 20
years but I know I don't have 50. I highly doubt that I'll have even
20 living in this house.


I fully expect the roofing here - house and all outbuildings have the
same green 5 rib steel - to outlast me . But dammit , I'm gonna give it
a run for the money ! I figger the longer I stay active the longer I'll
last . Cutting 4 to 6 cords of firewood every year is a good start on
that .

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****.


I priced a hidden-fastner metal roof install and it was twice the cost
of the GAF Timberline shingles. Guess which I chose.


Did the same about 20 years ago. Made no sense to spend that much more.
If I were told that my lifetime and the roofs were the same, I'd go
for the metal roof.

Exercise only matters to a point (and after can be a negative).
Choosing the right parents is far more important to longevity.

The only way metal roofs are not significantly more

Nope and it isnt just rural Oz anymore,

I installes Certainteed Northgate for the same reason. I could
rationalize spending more for premium shingles, but not as much more
as a GOOD metal roof would have coar and I wasn't about to waste money
on a crappy metal roof that would look like crap within 10 years


None of ours do.

or one that looked terrible the day it was installed (barn roof)


No one has those and we don't have barns either.

The only way metal roofs are not significantly more expensive is if

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.

Wasnt true when the house was built, stupid.


My house was built in 1947. Everyone before me installed asphalt
shingles. When I had it re-roofed, I would have been foolish to change to steel.
I'd never recover the additional cost.

Are you pricing the materials or the total cost of an installed roof
system?

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****.


I priced a hidden-fastner metal roof install and it was twice the
cost
of the GAF Timberline shingles. Guess which I chose.


Did the same about 20 years ago. Made no sense to spend that much
more.
If I were told that my lifetime and the roofs were the same, I'd go
for the metal roof.

I have about 20 years to go before I die, maybe a bit more.
Why should I pay for a roof that will outlive me by 50 years?

Wasnt true when the house was built, stupid.


My house was built in 1947. Everyone before me installed asphalt
shingles.
When I had it re-roofed, I would have been foolish to change to steel.


Bull****.

I'd never recover the additional cost.


Thats not what its about.

The latter, because the installation costs
are much lower with metal, stupid.

It's always about cost, stupid. If I spend $20,000 rather than
$5,000 on a roof, then I have $15,000 less to spend on other
things that my house needs.

Every single decision involves that sort of tradeoff. That's why
we do most of our own home maintenance and improvements,
except for things that require specialized knowledge or equipment,
or things that we are physically incapable of doing.

More fool you. The metal roofs last FAR longer.

Mine is 50 years old now and is as good as when new.


BULL****


Fact actually. Like that or lump it.



I've never seen paint exposed to direct sunlight look "like new" after 50 years.

Corse it does when it lasts much longer.
Mine is just as good as it was when new,
now 50 years later.

Same with bricks instead of the stupid
timber you fools use for the walls too.


Bricks were not readily available in many parts of the country. If you
look at much of the northeast from Boston to Virginia there are a lot of
brick homes. You need clay and kilns to make them. Not readily
available in other places so they use what they could get, Just as
adobe and igloos, you build with what you have.

More mindless bull****. Why is the wealthiest country

houses with stupid shingles and tiny little windows ?

Are you personally that poorly paid ? Figures.

Must be why you 'live' in a ****ing
tent, much cheaper than a real house.

That's why we do most of our own
home maintenance and improvements,


Sorry, didn't realise you are such a desperate pov on the minimum wage.

I'm an engineer. Before my husband retired, he was an engineer.
We have plenty of money, but no desire to waste it.

It's about optimization. Everybody, everywhere, building anything
trades off features or convenience for cost.
