- The aluminum is Coated with the Alunar® Coating System (no visible aluminum surface) for durable color retention and corrosion resistance.
- Precision weatherproof seams (profiles: slate, cedar, shake, tile) and mechanical fastening (profile: standing seam) deliver long-term leak protection during wind-driven rain events.
- Interlocking panel geometry minimizes seam movement and water intrusion under cyclical loading common to suburban homes.
- Snow-shedding metal panels reduce roof-loading and help prevent ice dams during Oak Forest’s heavy snowfalls and freeze–thaw cycles.
- Designed to withstand rapid seasonal transitions across Oak Forest and Cook County, including repeated freeze–thaw and thermal contraction/expansion.
- High resistance to impact from hail and falling branches—UL 2218 Class 4 impact resistance for added storm-debris protection.
- Class A fire-rated available for homeowners seeking increased fire performance in decking and attic assemblies.
- Integrated thermal performance and reflective finish lower attic temperatures during Midwest heat waves and reduce HVAC cycling.
- Engineered for mechanical roof-attachment options that maintain wind uplift resistance through severe gusts and convective storm events.
- Compatible with contemporary bracket-mounted photovoltaic systems to support rooftop solar installations without compromising roof integrity.
- Fully recyclable aluminum construction supports long-term sustainability goals and reduces replacement waste compared with organic roofing.
- Low-maintenance finish and panel system designed to outlast asphalt shingles in Oak Forest’s moisture- and season-driven environment.
- Local snow-load resilience: panels and fasteners sized to meet typical Cook County suburban roof-loading demands while easing snow removal on steep pitches.
- Windstorm readiness: interlocking panels and secure fastening provide enhanced protection against summertime derechos and severe storm gusts that impact Oak Forest.
- Canopy and debris mitigation: smooth coated surfaces and tight seams help limit organic buildup and moss under the oak canopy common to many Oak Forest properties.

Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Oak Forest, Illinois
| Spec / Rating | Climate / Risk Factor + What It Solves |
|---|---|
| Wind resistance: 120+ mph (193+ kph) | Extreme wind, hurricanes, storm uplift: full interlocking attachment helps prevent blow-offs, edge lifting, and panel loss in high-gust events. |
| Fire rating: Class A (with proper assembly) | Wildfire, embers, radiant heat, chimney sparks: non-combustible roof assembly provides the highest residential fire protection rating. |
| Hail resistance: UL 2218 Class 4 | Hail and impact debris: highest impact classification; resists cracking, splitting, and surface loss common with asphalt under hail strikes. |
| Snow & ice performance: interlocking, shedding profile | Heavy snow, freeze-thaw, ice dams: smooth aluminum sheds snow efficiently and the interlocking design helps block water intrusion when melt-refreeze cycles occur. (Final snow-load capacity depends on roof structure and local code.) |
| Corrosion resistance: aluminum (won’t rust) | Salt air, coastal humidity, wet climates: aluminum naturally resists rust and corrosion, reducing long-term failure risk in marine or high-moisture environments. |
| Heat / UV durability: baked-on coating system | High heat, intense sun, thermal cycling: coatings resist UV breakdown and temperature-swing fatigue, slowing fading and surface degradation. |
| Moss / algae resistance: smooth coated surface | Wet shade, organic growth: low-porosity metal surface gives moss/algae less to grip, reducing staining and maintenance. |
| Material: heavy-gauge aluminum roof profiles (Slate / Shake / Shingle / Tile / Standing Seam) | All-season structural stability: lightweight, dent-resistant metal system stays stable through large hot-cold swings and severe weather. |
| Expected lifespan: 50+ years | Long-term durability across climates: avoids re-roof cycles typical of shorter-life materials, even in high-stress environments. |
| Warranty: Lifetime-Limited, non-prorated + 50-year transferable | Lifetime protection + resale value: guarantees long-term material confidence and transfers to future owners. |

What our customers are saying:
My husband and I didn't realize we had 3 roofs that needed to be tore off. I wish once they found out about the 3rd they could have communicated that with us instead at the end requesting more money. Professional, understanding, polite, and all round just excellent service. We will be back.
They did a good job, so I can't really think of anything that they could improve on. They provide quality roofing.
Now that our new Interlock Roofing system has been installed, we find the look to be extraordinary! It boasts sophistication and looks clean and elegant. Almost more important than the attractive look of our new roof is the peace of mind we have gained with its many features.
My roof is nice and adds more to my home. They did well and on a good level.
Everything is positive, I hope I will be able to use Interlock Roofing in the future.
I can not think of anything they could have improved on.
I wish that the aluminum was a little bit thicker. It would give the appearance that it would hold up longer. I wish that they would call me every 5 years for the next 50 years. I am expecting a call every five years for the next 50 years. Only time will tell how well the product is holding up.
The new roof looks GREAT. Hoping it will stand the test of time. Will recommend to those who inquire. Letting me know that the installation was starting would have been great.
