1. labor b scammin (frfr)
> dem metal sheets ain even dat pricey but dem roofers? oh dey gon tax u heavy.
> dese dudes got licenses insurance all dat, n since metal roofs take way longer to slap on dan dem weak asphalt shingles? brace ya pockets.
2. americans stay on dat ashphalt crack
> 90% of dese roofs outchea basic as hell, asphalt shingles runnin da game cuz dey dirt cheap ($1.50โ$5.50 a square foot installed).
> 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
> hoas b da worst. โoh u cant put dat shiny roof on yo own house it don match da ~aesthetic~โ bruh.

> โits 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 โmetalโ 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
