Roofing near the ocean—did you know salt air eats metal?

Yeah, the edge thing drives me nuts. I thought I was being smart with extra sealant, but after a couple years, it just started peeling up anyway. I get what you mean about the cost—sometimes it feels like you’re just throwing money at patches instead of fixing the real problem. I wanted tile too, but my place just isn’t built for that kind of weight. Guess it’s just part of living near the ocean... trade-offs everywhere.

Man, I hear you on the sealant. I thought I was being clever with the “just one more tube” approach, but now my edges look like a lizard shedding its skin. I wanted tile too, but my attic beams basically laughed at me. Coastal life is wild—salt, wind, and regrets.
