I believe the hidden fastener standing seam metal roofing costs about twice as much, plus needs have the roof sheathed, is that correct? I've been wondering about the standard screwed on roofing with rubber washers. Do they have to be replaced in 15 years? I can't have a roof leak if I finish half the inside as living quarters...
They may only last 5 years. Subject to how they are installed, length of screw, sub-roofing construction, weather, sun, etc. Contractor over compresses rubber washer, it splits, then water penetration. Slat vs. wood OSB base layer menas you cannot have a good sealed base. We had that problem on our first building ... fast work, unskilled installers, problems. The roof is the last thing you want water problems on.
