im sorry, I was unclear in how I phrased it, I want to replace the cedar with asphalt. Im not sure whats under it, but there is reason to believe the entire roof was redone in the early 80s, when a small extension was made to the house.

Im thinking the asphalt would be a little tougher with some of the shaded areas of the home, and would be within my budget as well
