Just happened to come on for the first time in 2 years lol. As a 12 yr roofer I can say if I used shingles it would only be certainteed timberline. They are full composite and 30 yr lifespan and will outlast all other brands by 10+ years. Better for high wind areas too. If you want to do it yourself go with steel it will be a bit cheaper then a company doing shingles and will never have to worry except a paint job every 50yrs or so. Super easy to do and vicwest delivers anywhere in Canada for $100
