I am pricing a roof. The person selling told me that the material has dropped 14% retail in the last 40 days, because of falling steel prices. My question is: how tied to steel prices is metal roofing material? Is there a lag time between steel costs vs roofing costs? If so, what is that lag time typically? Any other ideas you have about roofing costs in the next few months would be helpful. Andy
