THe best I hear is "seemless" metal roofing but it is also more expensive. I lived in a house once with the screw down metal roofing types and well there was leakage where the screws were screwed into thru the metal and then into the "runners or strappings".... there is a little washer on the screw and it's suppossed to seal it up but I guess it only lasts for a certain number of years before the wind and snow(weather elements) take their toll...

Is tin nailed down? or do they have that seemless nowadays?

depends on the metal like shingles there are many types and grades
screw down metal ( as opposed to soldered ) is always cheaper than shingles to INSTALL ( assuming you are talking about sheets not shingles ) and usually the basic galvanized 'tin' or aluminum is cheaper per square to purchase
high quality metal ( copper coated - anodized - copper ) is more expensive but can be cheaper in the long run ( except for copper sheet which is outrageous in cost ) due to its 50-75 year lifespan ( shingles 15-25 years )

I had Shingles for the first time a few weeks ago. I am normally in good health and haven't had any other health challenges before, so it came as a surprise.
Shingles is probably the most painful thing I have ever encountered. I went to the doctor, and he gave me some prescription drugs to take that was suposed to help, but didn't.
My wife found the Fast Shingles Cure ebook online and bought it for me, I am very lucky to have such a wonderful woman in my life. We followed the book, did what it said, and it delivered what it promised. Finally my Shingles rash is over... I feel truly blessed and thankful.

shingles are cheaper, but you might get an insurance discount for metal.
