Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Glendale, Massachusetts
| 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:
This letter is in regard to our recent purchase and installation of an Interlock Roofing System at our home on 7 Shingle Island Lane in North Dartmouth. We experienced a failing asphalt roof after only 14 years! After a bit of research on the internet, we investigated and decided on an Interlock Roofing System. Our salesman Michael Furman was outstanding. He was friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, and very professional and he answered all our questions pertaining to the materials and their installation. He assured us that our concerns on certain roof areas of our Log Home would be addressed and appropriate materials would be used. He was right! We have a beautiful new green Interlock roof that looks amazing with the dark stained logs! Alex and his crew did an outstanding job during the installation and especially paid attention to the details we were initially concerned with. The crew was hard-working, courteous, and always professional. They were very patient in answering ALL our questions about the installation and challenging areas around the Log dormers and multiple skylights. They worked long days showing much tolerance and patience despite all the rain, cold and wind March/early April threw at them! They made sure at each day's end to clean thoroughly and secure the worksite before leaving. Our neighbors have commented on what a great-looking roof it is and the great job the installers did as well. We've even had people drive down our street from the main road upon seeing the roof to comment on its outstanding look. Many of them have been following the progress since its start. We are so pleased with the final results! It is a very attractive, "rich" looking roof and makes our log home look once again like it was just built! We do highly recommend your product and your company to anyone who is considering a new roof. We are looking forward to a future without facing roof replacement again! Thank you for an excellent product and outstanding service from your company.
I am writing this letter to you and the installation crew that installed my Interlock Roof I have on my home. I would like to let you know how delighted and happy I am with my Interlock Roof. It was a pleasure working with you doing business with a company so professional as Interlock Industries, Inc. Everyone I spoke to was so helpful and very informative answering all the questions I had. My existing roof was only six years old when I noticed a brown spot on my kitchen ceiling, I couldn't believe a roof six years old was leaking needing repair so soon. I then began the process of looking for a solution. I was looking for a roof that would withstand the weather conditions in New England. I heard about the Interlock Roof from my friends. I began to read and learn about your product from my friends that had Interlock Industries, Inc. install their Interlock Roof couldn't say enough to me about how pleased they were with your product and how wonderful the company was to work with. I was pretty much sold on product. Then when you came to my home explained how this roof would be installed, the Lifetime " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">Warranty - I knew this was for me and just what I was looking for. My home looks beautiful and best of all knowing I will not have to roof again makes me very happy with peace of mind. Thanks again especially for the superb service that was given to me. I would highly recommend the Interlock Roofing System to anyone interested in a new roof and never having to roof again.
We have had significant damage due to water leaks inside our house over the past 5-6 years. The reasons behind these leaks were ice dams and icicles. Our house is facing north. It gets minimum or no direct sun exposure most winter months. Repairs were costly. The problem, however, would recur every winter. Our roof was about 15-year old and it was not in a bad shape. We had a contractor installing a reinforcement felt in the area of interest (cost about four thousand dollars labor and material) but failed to correct the issue. After a thorough research, we were left to choose between electrical panels or a metal roof. We opted for the later, for both, safety and aesthetic reasons. We found Interlock Industries through internet-Google- search. We are pleased with our 2 choices (metal roof and Interlock) for the following reasons, with few remarks: Estimate and contract Done properly, in a pressure-free environment. Larry Ebbs understood and executed his role well. Communication and coordination With the central office were excellent (Jennifer Simons) Execution A highly professional crew. Neat, detail-oriented, highly efficient, and courteous workers. Two caveats: The crew who worked on our house was not fluent in English, and communication, when occasionally needed, had to happen over a cell phone. The start was phenomenally fast; completing the job dragged a bit longer. Cost Expensive upfront. About 3 times the cost of a shingle roof; cost will go down to about 2.5x with discounts and incentives. Financing option is available, but the interest rate is relatively high. A " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">tax credit is available since (Interlock) metal roofs are energy efficient. Head Roofer Paul McAllister is outstanding (as a person and as far as quality of work). In addition to the metal roof, Paul and his crew successfully fixed a chronic leak from a small flat roof in the back of the house. This is a leak that we tried to repair at least twice (different contractors) without success. Results \* Functionality: We have had 2 major snow storms this winter, between 12-15 inches of snow each time, comparable to prior years. We are delighted to announce that we have not had any leaks. " title="Ice dams" data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">Ice dams continued to form, mainly in the northern section of the house (where the insulation, we believe, is imperfect), but they are much smaller in size and fewer in number. No further icicles noted (make sure you don’t stand underneath the roof after a snowy day, as the snow slides off the roof like an avalanche). One downside is the noise caused by the rain drops. This noise is here to stay and will bother some people. \* Appearance: The roof look is outstanding. Sharp and perfect geometry. The color contrasts nicely with the paint. Overall If you live in a snowy region, and you are planning on replacing the roof of your home for functional or aesthetic reasons, or for both, I highly recommend metal roofing. I also recommend metal roofing for new constructions in these areas as well. If you decide to go with a metal roof, Interlock Industries (New England) will meet or exceed your expectations.
Dear Interlock, We are writing to inform you how pleased and satisfied we are with our newly installed roof. It was a big decision to make, and we were nervous at the time, but when our representative Mike Yaniv, explained and demonstrated the installation of the roof, he really made us feel more at ease. Alex, Dimitre and Dennis were the crew that worked on our roof. Not only did they do a very professional job – but they were also very polite, courteous and friendly. The job was completed in three days with very little mess, as Mike had told us at our first meeting. We were very impressed that the roof was done in such a timely fashion. Only half of the roof was finished, and our neighbors had already called to say they really liked the roof. Needless to say, when it was all finished, we received many compliments from our family and friends. We feel we made the right decision to go ahead with Interlock Roof and are glad we won’t have to worry about replacing it ever again. We would recommend this type of roofing and your company to anyone interested in replacing their roof. The roof looks great, and we are very happy!
From our first meeting with Jonathan, who was professional, authentic and knowledgeable about roofing, we've had a wonderful experience with Interlock Roofing. The installation team was clean, courteous and skilled at their job. The best part is snow slides off the roof and no more leaks in the house. Nothing. it was all great. It was great, easy to set up and we love the look of the roof
I can only speak from my experience with Interlock, but their communication, follow-up, installation, and quality have exceeded my expectations of any contractor. My roof is absolutely gorgeous and the talk of the neighborhood. The installers have gone about their work quietly, professionally, and respectfully (cleaning up my yard at the end of each day's work). I highly recommend this product and company to anyone looking to replace their roof with something gorgeous and enduring. This is one of the best decisions I've ever made for my home.
We love our new roof. We get tons of compliments. the slate style really matches the style of our house (built in 1690). Carefree for life. Overall, they did an exceptional job and were organized and professional. There was some slight mis-communication initially and I'm not sure where the link in the chain was broken, but it appeared someone was mis-instructed on which skylight to take out, either that, or he couldn't read the plans, but I'm not sure. In the end they remedied the problem. Sales person was very knowledgeable and friendly, but be prepared for him to overwhelm you with info (not a bad thing). We couldn't be happier with the product quality and look. Highly recommend this. They also offer financing which was helpful for us. see comments above questions 3 & 4 Best roof ever for quality and look
No more problems with moss and lichens, like I had with the " target="\_blank" rel="noopener">asphalt shingles. I am extremely happy with my new Interlock Roofing System and to think it has a lifetime warranty. There have been several rainstorms that last couple of weeks and to me the metal roof had added no additional noise at all. The flat roof is also a welcomed addition. The material quality is tip-notch throughout. A flat roof will normally wear out first; however, this also comes with a lifetime " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">warranty. I have been impressed with Interlock from my first awareness at the local home show. I also did investigation through the " target="\_blank" rel="noopener">Better Business Bureau. During all interaction with Interlock, employees have been professional and courteous. The sales presentations were very informative. I was also able to visit half dozen houses locally that had had Interlock Roofing Systems installed. The benefits of the Interlock roof over an asphalt roof are numerous. In these days of rising energy costs and the high price of fuel, the expected energy savings are welcome. I will also be able to take advantage of the energy credit on my taxes this year. The fact that the ">roofing material deflects the heat versus absorbing it will make the house cooler during the summer months. Working with the installation team of Finn and Alex was a delight. The attention they gave to making sure things were done right was greatly appreciated. From the moment they arrived in the morning, till they went home at night, they were constantly working. During the installation period, there were several rainstorms. Alex and Finn always made sure they had things buttoned up before the storm started. We were lucky enough to get a couple of good days and they took advantage of them by working between 10 and 11 hours those days. If I saw anything that I did not like, it was quickly addressed or the explanation was given why it had to be done that way. The answer was always acceptable to me. They took the time to help me understand the various installation tasks. The longevity of Finn and Alex’s careers with Interlock are testimony to Interlock as a company, their product knowledge and experience levels, and work quality. I would highly recommend Interlock Industries roofs to others.
My wife and I met Mike Furman at the Home Show in Foxboro this past winter. I had asked about the system in other years but got so turned off by the salesperson I never stayed to talk. This year was the first time we’ve seen Mike. We started to talk with him and were readily put at ease. We were so comfortable talking with Mike that we agreed to have him come to our home and really talk business. Mike has a wonderful way of explaining the Interlock system. Not only is he intelligent and professional, but he is also patient. He never talked down to us or over our heads. He was always neatly dressed but not in a stuffy business suit, someone you could relate to. The roofing crew led by Bakha, Alex (a great craftsman!) and the rest were a pleasure to deal with. They were very polite and accommodating. They worked some very hard, long hours to get the job done. They had to work around New England’s typical weather: sun, rain, " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">hail, snow and wind. The weather delayed them a little, but they were soon done with the job. They cleaned up each night before they left, so we never had to worry about getting nails in our car tires. The roof, it’s beautiful! It complements the style and design of our house. My wife said she had never looked at our roof much before, but now she stops in the driveway to admire it. Our biggest concern about it being noisy in the rain was taken care of. Mike was right! You really don’t hear the rain any more than before. About four years ago, a friend of mine, George, from Berkley, MA, had gotten a metal roof. He loved it and always talked well about it. He has been answering my questions about it over the years and invited my wife and me to see it before we bought it. His is the Interlock system too. Since I’ve been talking to George for the past four years about your roofing system, I believe he should be given a “finders fee.” Thank you.
I wanted to let you know how happy my wife and I are with our new Interlock roof and the quality of the installation work. The installers presented themselves in a very professional manner. They took great pride in their job and worked on our home as if it was their own. At the end of the day, they always cleaned up after themselves and never inconvenienced my family. They truly were a wonderful crew! The roof looks fantastic. It is much sharper and cleaner looking than our old roof. Since it was completed, we have had several hard rainstorms. The roof performed very well. One of our initial concerns was if rain hitting this new roof would be louder than our old. On those stormy nights, our fears were quickly put to rest. There was no difference in sound compared to our old roof. Then, the night before Thanksgiving, we had a snowstorm. Thanksgiving Day was nice and sunny, and our house was the only one with no snow on the roof. The Interlock roof is, by far, the best home improvement project I have undertaken; it is wonderful knowing I will never have to worry about my roof again. Thanks for the great product and service.
I just had a brand new Dark Grey Metal Roof by INTERLOCK installed. I found everyone that I dealt with from Jonathan Brown in sales and Jennifer Simons in the office and to the crew that did an excellent job ( they were very hard workers)! I am pleased with the outcome of the roof. It looks wonderful, I would highly recommend interlock to anyone who Is looking for a quality roof and excellent and professional installation.
The work was both of excellent quality and done on time. The worksite was left exceptionally clean. I would recommend Interlock Roofing to anyone looking for a great product and great service.

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Glendale
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Glendale, Massachusetts. Whether you are building a new home or replacing an existing roof, understanding how roofing materials perform in local weather conditions is essential. From wind and storm protection to fire resistance, hail impact, snow loads, and coastal moisture exposure, Interlock’s Lifetime Aluminum Roofing System is engineered to provide long-term durability, energy efficiency, and peace of mind in Glendale.
How does a metal roof handle Glendale's heavy snow load and freeze-thaw cycles?
Interlock's four-way interlocking aluminum panels shed snow reliably because the smooth, hard surface resists ice adhesion—critical in a region averaging about 125 cm of snow annually and roughly 93 freeze-thaw days per year. Unlike asphalt shingles, which can crack and leak as ice forms and thaws, aluminum's self-healing oxide layer remains intact through repeated cycles. The panels' lightweight design (Shingle at 0.41 lb/sq ft) means no structural reinforcement is needed, and optional snow guards prevent sudden slides while protecting gutters and plantings below.
Why won't my aluminum metal roof rust in Glendale's wet climate?
Aluminum cannot rust because it contains no iron—the element that oxidizes into rust. Instead, aluminum naturally forms a thin, transparent oxide layer that actually protects the metal beneath. When scratched, this layer self-heals automatically. The Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon finish (applied to both sides) adds a 30-year warranty against chalking and fading, giving you dual protection against Glendale's approximately 1076 mm annual rainfall and salt-carrying winter moisture. This dual-layer defense is why Interlock panels have installed successfully from coastal salt-air homes to Antarctica since 1998.
Does freezing and thawing damage an aluminum metal roof over time?
No. Aluminum's physical properties make it immune to the damage freeze-thaw cycling causes asphalt, wood, or concrete. With roughly 93 freeze-thaw days annually in Glendale, traditional roofing materials expand when wet, freeze, contract, and crack—ultimately failing. Roofing-grade 3105-H24 aluminum (ASTM B209 specification) maintains its dimensional integrity through unlimited freeze-thaw cycles. The Guardian warranty covers cracking and splitting for the original owner's lifetime, transferring to the next owner for 50 years. This durability explains why Interlock has manufactured panels since 1998 without freeze-thaw-related failures.
Will a metal roof blow off in Glendale's winter windstorms?
No. Interlock's four-way interlocking panels are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph (193 km/h), far exceeding Glendale's typical gusts, which average around 18 km/h daily with occasional peaks near 120 km/h. The interlocking design—where each panel hooks mechanically to its neighbors on all four sides—distributes wind force across the entire roof rather than allowing uplift at edges or seams. This mechanical bond, combined with proper fastening to the deck, creates a unified system that ICC-ES ESR-1790 evaluation confirms meets or exceeds IBC/IRC wind standards for this region.
Can hail damage an aluminum metal roof, and will insurance cover it?
Interlock aluminum roofing achieves UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the Guardian warranty even covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. This robust impact resistance often qualifies homeowners for insurance premium reductions, especially in climates prone to severe weather. Because aluminum is non-combustible and Class A fire-rated (when specified), some insurers offer combined discounts for both impact and fire coverage. Request your insurer's rate when replacing with a Class 4-rated roof; the warranty's comprehensive coverage of impact-related damage provides additional peace of mind beyond standard homeowner policies.
Do energy-efficiency metal roof colors really lower cooling costs in summer?
Yes. Interlock's energy-efficient colors have thermal emissivity of 0.84 and initial solar reflectance up to 0.55 (Aged Copper Penny profile), reflecting heat that asphalt shingles absorb. In Glendale, where you enjoy about 2973 annual sunshine hours, this reflectivity reduces roof surface temperature by 30–40°F compared to dark asphalt, lowering air-conditioning demand. The Cool Roof Rating Council verifies these values. Combined with the roof's minimal weight (no attic heat trap from massive dead loads), metal roofing measurably reduces seasonal cooling costs—savings that compound over the roof's 50+ year lifespan and make the investment recoup itself.
Do I need to reinforce my house to install a metal tile roof?
No structural reinforcement is needed. Interlock's Mediterranean Tile profile weighs only about 0.59 lb/sq ft—approximately 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile—so your existing framing handles it easily. This extraordinary lightness (compared to slate at roughly 10–15 lb/sq ft) means you can install metal roofing directly over most existing asphalt or wood roofs without tear-off, reducing labor costs and construction time. The four-way interlocking panels distribute weight evenly across the deck. ICC-ES ESR-1790 confirms installation compliance without reinforcement, making metal roofing an attractive retrofit option for older Glendale homes where structural upgrades would be costly.
What architectural styles can Interlock metal roofing replicate?
Interlock offers five distinct profiles—Slate, Cedar Shingle, Shake, Standing Seam, and Mediterranean Tile—allowing you to match virtually any architectural style from Colonial to Mediterranean to contemporary. Each profile's dimensional geometry, shadow lines, and surface texture convey the aesthetic of its namesake material. The four-way interlocking aluminum panels are manufactured to profile-specific tolerances in Delta, BC, since 1998, ensuring consistent appearance and performance. Your choice of profile, combined with Alunar finish colors and optional Class A fire rating, lets you achieve your design vision while gaining metal roofing's 50+ year lifespan and zero-maintenance durability—something traditional materials cannot match.
How is an aluminum metal roof more sustainable than asphalt shingles?
Aluminum roofing eliminates the asphalt tear-off-to-landfill cycle that standard shingles perpetuate. Interlock panels are approximately 95% recyclable at end-of-life, and the lightweight design (Shingle at 0.41 lb/sq ft) uses less material by weight than heavy slate or tile alternatives. Over a 50-year lifespan—versus asphalt's 15–20-year cycles requiring multiple tear-offs—you avoid years of debris hauling and landfill contributions. CALGreen verification confirms reduced maintenance, meaning fewer chemical treatments and repair cycles. By installing once and keeping it for life, you reduce your home's environmental footprint while the transferable 50-year warranty encourages long-term ownership rather than quick replacement cycles.
Who installs Interlock metal roofing in Glendale, and how long have they served the area?
Interlock Metal Roofing (New England) Inc. has served Berkshire County and the surrounding region since 1999—longer than almost any local competitor. This 25-year tenure means deep familiarity with Glendale's climate demands: heavy snow (~125 cm/year), frequent freeze-thaw cycling (93 days/year), and occasional gusts near 120 km/h. They understand local building codes, common roof pitches, and architectural preferences. Current regional promotion: no payments and no interest until Spring 2027, or 10% off metal roof installation. A local installer ensures timely service, warranty support, and the ability to inspect your roof in person before providing estimates—something national chains cannot offer.
Is a metal roof a good choice for Glendale’s climate?
Yes. Glendale averages about 125 cm of snow, 1076 mm of rain, roughly 93 freeze–thaw days a year, with peak wind gusts near 120 km/h. Interlock® aluminum roofing is wind-rated to 193+ km/h (120 mph), UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated and Class A fire-rated, and its four-way interlocking panels shed snow and resist ice dams and freeze–thaw cracking — all backed by a lifetime limited, transferable warranty.
