I've never been in a building with a quiet metal roof, but I have been in one with someone climbing around on top. It's not subtile. I'd be willing to bet the metal roof is not in any way insulated but I suppose the LEO's just thought there was a big racoon up there.

THIS is such a great point. I used to be a roofing grunt to make money during the summers for 6 years to pay for college.

I can't believe I didn't think of this. That roof looks like corrugated metal clapboard.

No way you can't hear if someone is on the roof and you're in the building.

Excellent post.

agree. Why do you think people w/ metal roofs like the rain at night?
