Why is the durable, environmentally sustainabler, net cheapest option always the one that is out of reach for the average person? It would look so swag. My crow brain is HEAVING! I want to live in the shiny penny house.

Also could anyone who has put on a metal roof share about their experience? Did it feel worth it? I'm planning to die in this house and I'm still young.

I have a corrugated sheet metal roof, I didn't realise metal roofing wasn't common anywhere else. In Australia metal roofs are about 99% of new houses, it's by far the cheapest option, durable, easy to install.

Hmmm, guess its pretty loud? idk, it doesn't really hail enough that i've really thought it. The sound of rain is nice and cosy though. comfy

It can get pretty loud, but the sound of rain makes it all ok.

I've mostly had terracotta tiled roofs growing up but yeah metal is common.

It's so hot in this room during summer. I want to live under a block of ice
