   Does anybody have experience with steel roofing? I'm in   
   need of a new roof and very curious about standing seam   
   steel, preferably the concealed-fastener snaplock type.   
      
   The roofers I've spoken with so far seem hesitant to offer   
   it. I'm guessing it's simply because they're unfamiliar.   
      
   If there's more to the story it would be helpful to know.   
      
   Thanks for reading, and any guidance!

   I have plenty of experience with the corrugated metal roofing HD and Lowes's   
   sells installed on sheds, none with standing seam on a house. For me the   
   deal killers are being able to walk and sit on it and snow+ice sliding onto   
   my head. After experienced friends showed me how I replaced my asphalt   
   shingles myself, with a hammer.

   I installed and tie to the ridge vent safety anchors like this that HD   
   sells.
