Can a metal roof be put on a roof with a 2 12 pitch? One roofer told me he would put on a simulated shake shingle if it was his home. Is he talking about a metal shake roof? Thanks

There are many different metal roof products that have different slope requirements. I do not know of any shingle products that are recommended for slopes as low as 2:12, though there may be some that I do not know about. I would suggest that you contact the manufacturer of the product you are considering to see what their recommendation is for that product.
