Answers:


1Metal roofing is more expensive (much more), but lasts a lot longer. Fiberglass shingles are the standard option & come in 20 yr, 25 yr & 40 yr. The difference is the thickness & supposed durability. In Alabama you are in the tornado/hail belt, so your roof wil NOT last as long as the names would imply! The metal would be resistant to the hail, so that would solve one problem.

I'm not as familiar with the solar options, but from what I have heard, they drastically reduce your ongoing energy costs.
