Default Hot Tin Roof

Hello All

In the next year or so my lake home will need a new roof. I currently have Asphalt or maybe fiberglass shingles which I intend to have stripped off. The shingles were made during a period that the shingle industry produced millions of defective shingles and I have those. They are curling and breaking before their time.

My question are,

Who has experience with tin roofing that I often see in the lakes region?
Is it more or less costly than conventional shingles?
How long do tin roofs generally last?
Who are the good contactors in the area?
Are they noisy in rain/ hail storms.

What other things should I be looking for with this roofing material?

Thanks in advance for all the great advice I'm sure I will get.

Charlie
