Need advice on replacing an old leaky roof

summitchessplayer · 2025-04-21T13:17:59Z

So my roof has finally decided it's had enough of life and started leaking in a couple spots during the last heavy rain. It's pretty old, probably 20+ years, so I guess it's about time. I'm not exactly swimming in cash right now, but I also don't want to cheap out and regret it later, you know? Anyone been through this recently and have suggestions on materials or contractors that are reliable but won't totally empty my wallet?

We’re in the middle of this exact debate right now. My partner’s worried metal will look too “industrial,” but I keep seeing houses online where it actually looks really modern, especially in matte black or dark gray. The price is a bit of a shock, though. Did you notice any difference in noise during rain? That’s the one thing I keep hearing mixed things about...
