When I bought my house, it had a cedar shingle roof that I didn't really care about. I had a metal roof installed which is great in the Winter as the snow just falls off.
However...
After the first snow storm, the snow came tumbling down like an avalanche, scared the shit out of me and the dog. It completed destroyed the gutters, front stairs and bannisters.
