Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Tower Lakes, 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: September 22, 2017Completion: August 31, 2017

This is probably not the fault of Interlock Roofing but the materials were delivered six weeks before the work began,were left on our lawn and killed the grass where they were placed. We were also concerned about theft when we were not at home. I hesitate to mention this but it was a concern at the time. We love our roof and are for once looking forward to the first snow without worrying about leaks.

Review: May 12, 2024Completion: April 29, 2024

Overall great product, craftsmanship and service

★★★★★
Review: June 24, 2015Completion: June 12, 2015

Absolutely. I'd tell anyone to get an aluminum roof. [Surveyor note: Mr. Levin didn't seem to understand the survey process, but was willing to provide feedback. So I only asked for the likely to recommend rating and the open-ended questions to make it easier for him.]

★★★★★
Review: April 24, 2018Completion: March 27, 2018

Clean up. I spent several hours this last weekend cleaning roofing nails and staples from between my deck boards and from my yard. I also spent significant time cleaning my gutters of roofing material.

★★★★★
Review: April 19, 2016Completion: April 19, 2016

I felt they were very professional. I would consider them going forward on a different home.

★★★★★
Review: April 3, 2025Completion: July 31, 2024

Very heavy investment, but worth every cent! I worked with John and he was very mindful in planning everything out- especially the finer details of what was needed for the house and for the project.

★★★★★
Review: January 12, 2016Completion: November 15, 2015

Interlock Roofing could have improved because they had one roofer that not show up one day and when this happened, it took another day to complete the project. This the second time I've had a roof put on in three years. This time was from tornado damage in my area. I am happy with them because I would not have asked them a second time.

Review: July 20, 2020Completion: June 23, 2020

Don't say you do sky lights, you obviously do not have skill or accessibility to materials in this area, took almost two years to complete the sky light installation. Got the run around to where window was and when it would be installed. The sky light you installed is not the quality we expected after a nearly two year delay. We had no idea it would just be set in with 2"x4" pieces of wood and would not be finished on the inside, leaving us to waterproof and tile on the inside of the shower. Old one was flush with no exposed raw wood. Big disappointment! Jesse and Sal did the best they could with what was given on the outside of the roof.
