It’s just that, every couple years, the house needs a new roof due to wear and tear, stuff falling on it, etc.; fine, I get it. Meanwhile, the Playskool house across the street in the neighbor’s yard has been there, taking similar kinds of abuse long enough for the original kids who played in it to have kids of their own, and not one leak.
Seems like a simple enough solution, and I’m nowhere near smart enough to think no one else has thought of this, so what gives?

They kind of have plastic roofs you can buy. Some people have concerns about how on the strips lock together without gaps and their longevity over time. Getting a 25 year or even 50 year warranty from a reputable company using standard GAF materials is pretty standard. I’m not really sure if PVC can last that long.
There are also issues with work crews knowing how to work with plastic and city codes. And finally if you go to sell the house and have a nonstandard roof, potential buyers might be a little scared.
