just puttin' in my 2 cents. It sounds like you have a pretty good idea of what will work best for you. My thoughts about the roof was that I thought the steel was really expensive. The standing seam steel I have used was extremely expensive. For shingles vs. wind - I live on the ocean so I always used the "high wind area" directions/specifications on the shingles package. They say to put dabs of roofing cement under each tab instead of relying on the built in goo. I have always done this and have never been called back for damaged shingles. My installations have been tested by 90+ mph hurricanes and many coastal storms. I have nothing against steel, I just can't afford it.
