Realistically, flashing at the wall junction is checked first on any Crocker-Amazon inspection, because that is where most ceiling stains originate. Granule loss in the gutters is the earliest honest signal on a Crocker-Amazon shingle roof covering, and it shows up years in advance of a ceiling stain does.
Underlayment choice counts more than covering choice on a Crocker-Amazon tile roof, because that is the layer doing the waterproofing. Worth knowing before you sign anything. In practice, silicone coatings hold up well on Crocker-Amazon roofs that pond slightly, where acrylic would not. Architectural shingle outperforms three-tab on a Crocker-Amazon roof for a modest extra cost and a meaningfully longer service life.
