Hi Allan, We look forward to replacing our roof with the magical-looking
white relective roof...The cost will be really big for our roof, but it is
also more sturdy than the shingle roofs.
The problem we have with solar is that our house is tucked into a forest.
Many trees...And I know most of them personally.

Greetings,
As someone who just had his roof redone in WHITE (from dark red)....I
can testify that a reflective roof really does make a difference. We
seem to be saving between $20 and $30 per month on our electric bill. We
also have solar panels. But solar panels do not cover the entire roof,
unless you spend a lot of money. So a white roof still make sense, and
should pay for themselves in savings in just a few years (unlike solar).
