If the insurance companies are going to force you to replace your roof every 10 to (if you are lucky) 15 years, why would you go for the expensive long life roof shingles? I was thinking about this as an acquaintance spent several thousand dollars extra for 25 or 30 year shingles. I am thinking I would go cheap as I will either be dead or I will have saved a lot of money. I have not heard of any insurance company requirements for the QUALITY OF THE SHINGLES.
Looking forward to some inciteful discussion on this.

This absolutely makes sense! Coming from MA where we do replace roofs with 30-40 year shingles I assumed it was a requirement- will have to see if there is a lesser life shingle in an architectural style!
