Yeah, I agree re: the storm damage.

I was assuming no weather issues, trees, etc.

I've just had great luck with shingles and piss-poor luck with metal.

I agree with your sentiment that for 99% of people shingles are the way to go. Besides if your building in a subdivision metal is usually not an option nowadays.

This also depends on how cut up the roof is. Even the best metal guy will have challenges with multiple valleys/gables/knee walls, etc.

But if you had a raised acadian on private land and you wanted the ultimate roof that could last the rest of your life a standing seam metal might do it.
