My last two re-roofs have owens corning 50 year guaranteed extra triple thick shingles. They cost 3-4 times as much as the celotex one's everyone else uses and another + 20% for install labor, cutting and high wind special nailing & glueing. One roof has gone 20 some years so far, but I don't own the house any.more.

Most people run away screaming away from an extra 5 thousand for a good roof. When was the last time you thought you'd spend 50 years in the same home?
