Asphalt shingles- 30 yrs. (only about 15 yrs. of life, though). Tin- 50-100 yrs. You do the math. Tin is way more expensive, but usually works out to save you over the life of the roof (longer than yours). For Canadian weather, I'd strongly recommend the tin as it sheds snow/rain better. Oh, I'm thinking NW Canada, not sure where you live, but still, tin is the better material all the way around.
Copper roofing is the most expensive option available. However, it also is considered the most durable metal roofing option. A 25-foot by 40-foot roof built with 20-ounce copper material will cost approximately $31,000 to install. However, the green patina that forms over the copper makes the roof both attractive and durable.
