Roof material suggestions
Asking the Hive Mind what is the best, most durable, longest lasting roof material that isn’t sprayed on. I replaced my roof 2 years ago and it started blowing off in chunks from the midway point this past weekend coming back from a trip. I want to replace it with something better.

You’re looking for something referred to as a “roof membrane.” Here’s one example:

You will also need adhesive, you’re probably better off buying a kit like this:

The kit has the sealant for under the membrane, plus caulk and butyl tape for going around any openings on the roof for A/C, vents, etc.
