That is also junk. Concrete roof tiles are also junk, they are porous, will look 100 years old in 10 years. The only roof that will last a lifetime with 0 issues is clay tiles. It is expensive though and your house better not be made of wood or it may collapse under the weight of its roof. You do have a stone house, right?

Metal roofs are slowly phasing out asphalt shingles in my midwest city.
I like the idea behind metal roofs but the cheap thin painted shit they sell is worthless, heavy gauge copper roofing is the ultimate. Slate and clay niggers pretend their roofs are great but they can not match copper.

I lived and worked in northern Guatemala for just under a year. The northern half of the country is flat and hot. About 90 degrees year round, with a dry season and wet season. I'm from a temperate climate and had a hard time getting used to it, and the fact that 90% of the homes had corrugated tin roofing made the heat one million times worse.

wow. Americans really do not know how zinc roofs work.
tl;dr:
The core of the sheet might be stell, but the outside zinc will in fact form a patina and protect the iron from any rust if installed properly.

Metal roofing is rather standard here since it's the cheaper option than tiles which is the other main type of roofing (concrete tiles are the main type) which not only cost more on a materials basis, but add cost to the framing because of the extra strength required.
I've never seen US-style shingles here, probably for good reason as pretty much every home has a rainwater tank.

ummmm copper roofs have a 100 year warranty faggot, also i installed one in 2001, shits still going strong so your wrong
>a properly installed and maintained copper roof can last significantly longer than most other roofing materials. While asphalt shingles might last 12-18 years, and other metal roofs could reach 50 years, copper roofs can potentially last for a century or more. This longevity is due to copper's inherent resistance to corrosion and its ability to develop a protective patina.

It's still installed on lmao engineered trusses. Poindexters did the math on the weakest possible least durable roof possible. And you're going to put a tiny fraction of an inch of metal on it?
Concrete is the only material a roof should be made of. Icf decking still allows for gables. It has zero downsides. I'm working on my dream house. It will have concrete roof like jap houses. I'll put tile over the concrete so it looks like I'm really in Japan.

Poor or rural, which I guess in many's eyes are the same thing. Metal roofs have some downsides but they last forever so they are the economical option where replacing them regularly is not desirable.

So the only way to sell other types is to associate metal roofs with poors and convince people that having shingles which need repairs all the time is high status.

Not aluminum roofs here in Florida which is subject to strong tropical rain storms and hurricanes. Shingle/asphalt roofs will tear apart but metal roofs hold.
>They heat up fast
You can paint them white which will reflect the most amount of sunlight. Metal roofs are used down south because they keep houses cooler. The high thermal conductivity means they release heat quickly back into the atmosphere.

The reason you don't see a lot of slate in the midwest is due to hail damage. Slate is a superior roof to metal and will last hundreds of years provided it ising being smashed up by baseball sized hail. Metal is a better option in tornado alley, but you're only going to get about 70 years out of it.

expensive, also I have an old house. When I replace mine I'll probably just put metal sheet on it that "looks" like a real roof.

I think metal sheeting can look good, lasts quite a long time , easily 50-60 years. And its very lightweight construction so no need to do a lot of work supporting it. It'll be lighter for the house than the current tiles I have on the roof.

you guys are talking about two different kinds of metal roofs

OP picrel is riveted
Heat makes metal expand and contract, loosening the rivets
Then it rains hard and every rivet hole becomes a leak point
You'll be lucking to get 8-10 years out of that piece of shit

A standing seam metal roof is bad ass and will last decades
No rivets
The seam allows for expansion/contraction under temperature changes

Compared to asphalt shingles, metal roofs are more expensive. Its not so much just the material itself, but the installation, edging, etc. With asphalt, you can send four Mexicans up a ladder wirh a nail gun and have a new roof in a few hours. You need some one semi-skilled for a decent metal installation. I don't know why metal is associated with poor people.

Tradie fag here. Even with perfect installation you will start to get leaks within 3-5 years because the rubber grommets on the screws start to fail both from thermal expansion and contraction as well as direct sunlight causing said grommet to crack and become frail.

That's why you have metal roofing screws that are made of corrosion resistant material and have rubber washers. Even the cheaper metal roofs need to be installed by someone that isn't an idiot and the installation will cost more than asphalt.

A typical shingled roof needs replacing every 20 years here in the SE US. You have to check the thing for damage every couple of years too.
There's so much humidity where I live that pressure washing your home siding is a yearly thing or else you have mold and mildew covering it.
Most of a US home needs constant maintenance, so a roof that just needs some paint every few years/decades would be an improvement.

> niggas ratha save $5 today dan think bout how metal roofs last 50+ years while asphalt start lookin raggedy in 15. priorities all messed up.

3. hoas & buildin codes b on sum power trip

4. folks believe anythang (literally)

> โ€œits gon sound like a metallica concert when it rain!โ€ bffr, if its installed right u won hear nuffin.

5. roofers b lazy / uneducated
> most dese contractors only know how to lay asphalt like its 1995. soon as u say โ€œmetalโ€ dey start sweatin.
> n if u in a small town? forget it. might gotta drive 3 states ova jus to get da materials.

6. weatha b playin games too

> but after labor? $7โ€“$15 per square foot easy. meanwhile asphalt still sittin at $1.50โ€“$5.50 installed.

da real reason?
it ain dat metal roofs cant get installed, its cuz:
> people stuck in dey ways
> contractors push asphalt cuz its easy
> folks scared of upfront costs (but waste money long-term)
> rules & hoas b on bs

but if u smart? metal roofs pay fo demselves.

I grew up in a house with no insulation and a vaulted ceiling so rain was always loud, almost like being in a shed.
This house has sarking/insulation between the battens and metal and also a thick layer of insulation over the ceiling so you still hear the rain which is lovely, but it's muffled substantially compared to the other house.
In the rare case of torrential rain here it can be pretty loud, but having lived previously in a house with a concrete tile roof I much prefer hearing the rain on the roof.

It's the time factor. Clay takes forever to install and people are cheap cunts. You also need to prep the roof. With asphalt, you can occasionally get away with roofing over the old shingles. But its basically just staple a bunch of tarpaper down, put the shingles in place, four pops from a nail gun, and its installed. When I did my garage it was a half day's work. Asphalt exists because its, cheap, durable, and easy to install.

This design is mostly to create a "shitting side" of the house. If you have a roof with two angles, the water will be diverted to both sides of the house and the ground will be too wet for proper street shitting.

clay, stone shales and copper are the best roof but they're heavy so additional wall and columns required to support the weight which increase the cost.

Something that is designed to last a century may only last a few decades due to wear and tear elsewhere, natural disasters, etc.
But it won't cause any problems for that timeline, unlike something that is designed only to last 10-20 years.

Your truss spans and widths have to be specifically engineered for the weight of clay tile. You also have to have specific underlayment (no one uses shitty shake felt under tile anymore) and an elevated battens system. It weighs over 1000lbs per SQ, whereas shingles are 220ish.

R-panel is literally worse than an asphalt roof. You can replace screws when they fail exactly twice before you reach the terminal width for grommets. Should have gone standing seam.

If the installation is done right and you take your time, longer than asphalt. But you need a support structure underneath the metal roof, it needs to be installed correctly, you cant cheap out on materials, and it's probably not worth it for most people. If you are paying to have someone else do the installation, it's going to be about 4x the cost of asphalt and maybe last a few years longer. The screws with rubber washers will last about 30 years if they are screwed into wooden beams and if you use cherry max rivets to connect unsupported metal sheets. Asphalt makes way more sense for like 95% of Americans. I'd consider metal if I had a cabin in the woods that isn't pummeled by direct sunlight and had a bunch of trees to protect it from direct weather like hail. Even if the rubber washers fail, just used a rubberized weather coat and the metal roof will last indefinitely. But since most people are njggers that cant be bothered wirh preventative maintenance, just roll with 20-year asphalt shingles and move on with your life.
