Sort of an aside. Some insurance companies will give a discount on your
home owners insurance if you install impact resistant shingles. The State
Farm web site has a list of the shingles they will give the discount for.
The list is a huge long list. One page is for asphalt shingles. There
are pages and pages of metal shingles. So metal shingles are expected to
last a long time. There is one rider on that. To get the discount for
metal shingles you have to sign a statement that you don't get
insurance coverage for cosmetic damage (dents).
The discount is only good in certain states. I assume the ones where
hail damage is common. I live in Oklahoma, and hail damage is certainly
common here.
