roofs != houses

Houses need roofs that last. Why put a new roof on every 15-20 years if you can put one on that lasts the lifetime of the house?

Please don't seriously suggest Tesla's solar roof will last the lifetime of a house to people.

The real warranty is 30 years for power and weatherization.

Its misleading marketing speak (at best).

> Weatherization means that there will be no water leaks or other weather intrusions during the 30 year warranty period that result from our installation.

It will almost certainly require replacing and/or serious repair long before the "lifetime of the house" is up.

Because unless you go with a metal roof that's a pipe dream.

I live in a house built in the early 1900's with the original slate tile roof still on it and it's in decent shape.

I live in a neighborhood full of slate tile roofs and tile replacement is a fairly routine occurrence. Are you positive that no tiles have been replaced in the past 100+ years?
