Dad's German-built Texas home has them. They were replaced for only the second time in 2001; home was built in 1889 and toof was last replaced in the 1950s. These are tin roofs. Texas (Austin area) weather is not so inclement so they may hold up so long due to this but they are still great. House is about 3000 sq ft and the roofs are at a high pitch (Victorian style ala Texas German settlers) and the cost was somewhere about 40-50k to replace. Less steeped pitch should mean less cost. Anyway, besides being long wearing they are really stunning to look at. They're not at all noisy when inside the house, though if outside they can be a little loud when rain hits them.
