Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Summit, Illinois

Spec / RatingClimate / 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 4Hail and impact debris: highest impact classification; resists cracking, splitting, and surface loss common with asphalt under hail strikes.
Snow & ice performance: interlocking, shedding profileHeavy 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 systemHigh heat, intense sun, thermal cycling: coatings resist UV breakdown and temperature-swing fatigue, slowing fading and surface degradation.
Moss / algae resistance: smooth coated surfaceWet 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+ yearsLong-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 transferableLifetime protection + resale value: guarantees long-term material confidence and transfers to future owners.

Review: March 3, 2022Completion: November 10, 2021

The Interlock team was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Undertaking the re-roof of a 108-year-old home is a major process and investment. After speaking to many other roofers, we realized that Interlock offered the best value proposition, and we felt like they were going to be able to deliver on what they promised.

★★★★★
Review: July 17, 2019Completion: April 6, 2019

I am very happy with the results of their work.

★★★★★
Review: December 16, 2022Completion: November 28, 2022

It took a really, really long time. It took over five months, but once they finished the roof, they did a good job. Interlock Roofing could improve the scheduling and the communication of when the project would be done. The contractors were awesome.

★★★★★
Review: August 3, 2016Completion: August 3, 2016

if our home was newer and we had money to invest into it your product sounded awesome just not right for us at this time

★★★★★
Review: October 6, 2016Completion: October 6, 2016

Dear John, I wish I had known about the Interlock Roofing System before I put the last new roof on twenty years ago. If I had, I would not have had to replace it again now.

★★★★★
Review: June 30, 2016Completion: June 30, 2016

We signed a contract with John yesterday.

★★★★★
Review: June 26, 2017Completion: August 31, 2016

The end of the project. No one told me when the project was going to be finished. The on-site manager told me I had to sign off on the work and give him the check. Previously, I had been told that I would not have to sign anything or submit final payment until I had an opportunity to inspect the finished work. Big difference between what I was told would happen and what actually happened.

★★★★★
Review: June 15, 2017Completion: September 10, 2016

None

★★★★☆
Review: August 26, 2023Completion: March 9, 2023

I think the product will speak for itself. Obviously the cost is higher than the price for asphalt. I thought the crew did a great job and I will recommend to anyone who inquires Communication could have been better. Coordination between my general contractor and an install supervisor would have made things smoother

★★★★☆
Review: June 27, 2017Completion: January 28, 2017

They could improve by being prepared with their permit before starting the job.
