Review: October 15, 2021Completion: August 12, 2021

We cannot begin to tell you how thoroughly satisfied we are, with not only our beautiful new slate roof, but every employee we had interaction with from start to finish.Mike and Damon were our first introduction to this company. They were polite, professional, informative and thorough in their presentation.Next we had several (over the phone) encounters with May. She worked diligently and professionally in getting our job scheduled between the time frame we needed.Now come the installers, Peter and Victor. These brothers are hard working, VERY knowledgeable, professional men with the highest of integrity. They started the job late (after coming from another job some distance away) the first evening, worked until dark. They returned the next morning, early, and put in 12 hours of work. (Again until just before dark)Came back and did an amazing job cleaning up everything!This is a quality product and a quality installation from a quality company we would recommend at any time.Thank you Interlock Industries, Inc.

Review: April 15, 2021Completion: October 16, 2020

So I needed to get a new roof on my 1925 farm house and I wanted to get something that would last the rest of my lifetime; a metal roof was the right call. After looking online at different companies and getting a couple quotes, I decided to go with interlock. Damon showed us how the roof is installed and the interlocking shingles sold us. We had crazy wildfires here in Oregon 2020 that messed up a lot of schedules but the company was very responsive and accommodating. Victor was the lead of the installers and they were timely, friendly, professional in appearance and a pleasure to have onsite. They were very respectful of our property and cleaned up all the debris that comes with roofing. I would highly recommend them to anyone that wants a metal roof to last. Thank you Interlock, your team did a great job. Positive Responsiveness, Quality, Professionalism Services Roof installation

Review: February 3, 2016Completion: October 30, 2015

We had already decided on a metal roof when we came across Interlock. It was one of those things where we were looking for a product with a quality standard that could match up to what we wanted. I’ll say this, Interlock works a bit differently from most of the roofing people we talked to. You’re going to talk to a sales person at your home visit, but don’t let that put you off. They’re knowledgeable and if you haven’t done your research, there will be some great information in the whole thing that’s really worth soaking up. Anyway, we were satisfied with the quality of the product in hand and decided to go ahead and go with Interlock. The install was delayed by a week due to some shipping issues, but that was really the beginning and end of the troubles. The Interlock folks let me know what was going on and when they’d have it sorted. All fine by me. It’s a lifetime roof, I’m not too upset if it takes an extra week to put it on. As I understand it, mine was a bit of a one-off problem anyway. The roofers were professional, quick, and thorough. Great people who worked quickly, cleanly, and the cleanup at the end of the day was nigh on amazing. Apparently the shipping issues on my initial order led to the final install of a very few pieces being delayed a few days, but before I knew it they were back out and finishing the job. Along they way they kept me updated on anything I needed to know. The finished product is the real question, I guess. And man, let me tell you. We’re more than happy with how it looks on the house. It’s especially crazy knowing that something that looks that good is going to last. You see standing-seam metal roofs all over and even with these you sort of wonder how “metal” the Interlock system is going to look. It looks great. Seriously, even right in the driveway it’s hard to tell it’s not either a slate or colored shingle roof. It’s really beautiful and it’s going to be there without the need for constant maintenance for a long, long time. That really makes the cost worth it. If you’re thinking about a metal roof, give Interlock a serious thought. The sticker price might make you jump a little in some areas than others, but now that it’s on the house I am happy we decided to go that way. It’s beautiful, it’s going to last a good long time, and there’s a certain confidence I get from knowing I’ll be dealing with the people who make it if there’s a problem.

Review: August 15, 2022Completion: June 30, 2022

We had a gorgeous Red Shingle Interlock roof installed and it had completely changed the look of our house! This roof was a long time coming…we placed the order in September 2021 and knew there was a 6mo wait but we were determined to wait it out and it was so worth it!The crew worked so fast and efficiently and really did a fantastic job. They were also super clean and made a great effort to leave no mess behind and even took care not to crush my plants.This is an expensive roof, make no bones about it, but the quality and durability as well as the beautiful look all are worth it.My house has had so many complements since it was done and compared to my neighbor next door who had a roof put on a couple months ago with traditional shingles, it is clear my roof is the favorite of the block!!

Review: February 19, 2016Completion: February 17, 2016

To Interlock Roofing: We just had our house installed with a new metal roof from Interlock Roofing, and I was thoroughly pleased with the entire experience. That is a tall order in this day and age if you have had any dealings with contractors. The entire staff was excellent, from the first contact with Mike and Ross, who were very patient with my wife and me as we tried to pick out a color and type of roof from so many different choices. I appreciated their gentleness and show of concern for the decision. These two are a great team and have a lot of experience to bring to us. The installers were excellent as well, and we asked questions of them and they took the time to answer all of our concerns with kindness and showed they were very experienced in installing roofs. The interesting thing was ALL of the debris around the house that accumulates with a new roof, tiny pieces, large pieces, all were taken care of in the cleanup at the end and the area was spotless! I even looked for any piece left behind, but there was none! The end result is a beautiful roof that my wife and I are both impressed with, making our house look so nice – like brand new! We are amazed. Thank you all for a wonderful experience, and we look forward to a roof that will last 50 plus years, which by the way is longer than I plan on being around! Thanks too, for being such a great group of people to work with, providing a very pleasant experience.

Review: February 3, 2016Completion: June 7, 2015

Our home was recently the lucky recipient of a new aluminum shingle roof by Interlock. We are sure that if our house could, it would be singing! So, my husband I and will gladly speak for it. We cannot say enough good things about the quality of our new roof material and installation. From the first visit with the sales team (thank you Mike and Ross) we were impressed with the professional and trustworthy service of Interlock representatives. The whole job took place right on schedule with lots of communication all along the way. The installation crew (thank you Peter!) was hard working, intent on making sure every detail was done to perfection, considerate of our landscaping and a pleasure to have on our property. The finished product: WOW! We love it! This new Interlock roof not only makes our farmhouse and garage look fabulous, in addition, we are so happy to know we will never scrape moss again, not to mention that we will probably never even replace our roof again! The color and style of the shingles are so pretty and we know our home is protected from the elements like never before. We won’t hesitate to recommend Interlock Roofing whenever we have an opportunity. This company has developed a product that really measures up to everything it advertises. Thank you, everyone at Interlock. We loved doing business with you!

We were so impressed with Interlock Roofing. The entire process was great from sales, to installation to clean up. They made the process easy even when we had a few curveballs for them. They worked with us wonderfully the entire time and our roof looks amazing. The installation team was so nice and respectful. Our roof is beautiful.

Interlock roofing is a fantastic company and the representative, Damon, was incredible. Always there to answer questions in a quick timely manner. I couldn’t be happier. This Aluminum roof will never need to be replaced and it makes my simple home look like a million dollar home. It’s stunning. I chose black slate and it is so beautiful. Such peace of mind too. I would highly recommend this company and its employees. The installation crew were professional and careful and accommodating. Thank You Damon and Interlock Roofing.

We saw the add on TV and knew a bit about Interlock Roofing and of course The “Never roof again”…. Slogan.Finally, we decided to contact them and make an appointment. I recommend to do your work and check your roof, have ANY kind of questions or doubts that are particular to your case and be ready for your appointment.Damon, our sales guy, was great and answer ALL, and by that meaning ALL questions that we have, for example:How long it takes?How invasive construction will be?What about our skylights?What about vents?What will happen to gutters?How many people will be in my Home?Debris?Warranty of the product?Warranty and insurance?What if I sell my home, warranty?When will work start?…… WELL, and probably 20 more questions.I already helped you tons with this examples of question.Again, Damon was great and on point and also very HAPPY to be challenged by a well involved client (Us).Finally, WE WENT FOR IT !!!!!! and ………WE LOVE IT !!!!! LOVE IT ! LOVE IT!My deeply THANKS TO :MARK / TIM / VICTOR AND of course the wonderful PETER; these guys were our installers and we communicated well and they were FAST AND IMPECCABLE.Now, let’s consider the times that we are living in….There was some waiting, there were jobs ahead of ours, and everything depends on nature too, so considering All of that…..

Review: May 5, 2021Completion: April 14, 2021

We had decided that we were ready to invest in a metal roof in our "forever home" for, among other reasons, its durability, eco-friendlly recyclable materials and light weight for seismic concerns. Damon was punctual and professional and an excellent salesperson. We had a very positive experience with May regarding scheduling; she was able to accommodate our timeframe and the crew showed up earlier than anticipated. The workmen were professional and very fast, and completed the tear-off and roof installation in 2.5 days. We were very impressed. The new roof is extremely attractive, and provided the whole house with the equivalent of a much needed "facelift!" We are delighted with our new roof and enjoy it every time we step away from the house to admire it. More thorough clean up, using magnetic tools to discover razors, nails and staples from tearoff. Better, more complete tarping to catch debris, not only on the slant side of the roof, but also the gable sides that are not slanted. They were not tarped, and that is where most of the debris and nails were found. An assessment for lead paint BEFORE working, which was promised, but not done. A smaller Interlock sign, in less garish (ie not fluorescent) colors, to display that would be acceptable for Washington County and the laws of other areas. I am not sure if the cardboard, water bottles and metal was separated and recycled off site, because it was all tossed into the same dumpster, but I would hope that since Interlock prides itself on eco-friendly recyclable materials, that it would follow through with recycling paper and metal as well. Roof, material, workmanship: 5 stars, Areas for improvement: Testing for lead pre-install, Tarping for Debris catch and Cleanup: Improvement needed, Communication re: Cleanup: Improvement needed, Information re: payment (cash, no credit card, upon completion): Improvement needed

Review: November 26, 2018Completion: November 26, 2018

We are very pleased with our new Interlock roof. While our house is nearly 100 years old, the new roof fits perfectly with the style and enhances the look of our home. We began receiving compliments from our neighbors almost immediately. Michael Laduke and his crew were professional and courteous, keeping the surrounding yard clean of debris and closing the gates each day to prevent our dog from escaping. Although the crew was slightly delayed due to an unfortunate encounter with a deer on the road, the work was completed just before the Thanksgiving holiday, adding the health and well-being of the crew and the beauty and protection of a new roof to our list of things to be thankful for. We greatly appreciate Mr. Laduke’s commitment to detail and his personal assurance that the project was completed before the holiday weekend. We would most certainly recommend Interlock Roofing Systems to anyone considering roof replacement.

Review: February 3, 2016Completion: January 8, 2016

Please consider this my letter of testimony regarding the installation of my beautiful Musket Grey Slate roof! From the beginning of this “roof project”, all of my conversations with Meg and Claudette were friendly and my questions were answered by these pleasant and knowledgeable ladies. Since I had already seen a presentation with a neighbor, Mike Rasmussen was able to save us both some time as I was very ready to get my leaky roof replaced! He thoroughly explained how the aluminum fits together and assured me the trained installers really did know what they were doing! Rolland called to let me know when he would be delivering the materials. He was right on time – even with snow and icy roads to contend with! He very neatly placed boxed materials next to the garage and then covered everything with a tarp to keep it dry. I was concerned with his and the installers’ safety during those unusual winter weather conditions but both Rolland and Peter seemed to take it in stride. Peter was very efficient and explained how things worked and answered my questions that I didn’t know I had until I watched how fast yet carefully he worked. Mike was right – Peter was quick and there was very little wasted material when he had completed everything! As it turned out, Peter was the only installer and he wasted NO TIME removing the chimney, getting my skylight replaced and the roof was done in only two days!! It was unusually COLD in Oregon those days; January 7th and 8th. He worked well into the dark evening hours on both nights, which I thought was above and beyond the call of duty. He carefully cleaned up after himself before he left. As you see, I am very impressed with my new roof. At one point, I was concerned that the aluminum may be “noisy”, however, with the amount of hard rain we have had, there is no more noise than there was with my old shingle roof. Again, I am impressed. My son is thrilled that he will never have to get up and toss laundry soap around on the roof to kill the moss! Just today, a gentleman stopped to chat about my roof as he’d noticed the sign in my yard. I happened to be outside for a few minutes and was happy to share my very pleasant experience with him. Neighbors have stopped to look at the sign and check out the roof on their walks. Enclosed are pictures of my “roof project”. Strangers would not know there ever was a chimney on the house. Peter was very careful removing the bricks which I appreciated since the new Leaf Guard system was recently installed. I thank you all for your help with updating my house. Please feel free to call me at 503-xxx-xxxx if you would like further comments.

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Rose City Park

The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Rose City Park, Oregon. 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 Rose City Park.

How does a metal roof handle heavy snow in Rose City Park winters?

Aluminum's light weight—the Shake profile weighs just 0.58 lb/sq ft—means your roof won't sag under Rose City Park's typical 48 cm annual snowfall or ice buildup. The four-way interlocking panels resist wind gusts up to 120 mph, preventing snow from sliding unpredictably. Snow actually sits longer on metal, improving insulation in a climate that averages 36 freeze-thaw cycles yearly, which is where thermal performance matters. Optional snow guards can be added if you want extra control over where snow melts during those frequent thaw days.

Will a metal roof leak in Portland's rainy climate?

No—the four-way interlocking panel design sheds water away from seams the same way slate does, and Rose City Park's average 1468 mm of annual rainfall proves the system works across the Pacific Northwest. The overlapping lock mechanism means water has nowhere to pool; it flows straight off. Proper installation over a solid deck with underlayment (which our local team has perfected since 1997) creates the same watertight seal asphalt shingles aim for, but without the degradation that rain causes to organic materials. You get decades without the leak callbacks asphalt generates.

Is a metal roof worth the upfront cost compared to asphalt shingles?

A metal roof is the last roof you'll install on your home, while asphalt typically lasts 15–20 years before another tear-off and landfill cycle. The Guardian warranty covers rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, and curling for your lifetime as the original owner, then transfers to the next owner for 50 years—meaning your home's value story changes at resale. Over 40–50 years (realistic for Interlock aluminum in a 1468 mm-rain climate like Rose City Park's), the math favors metal: no re-roofing costs, no emergency repairs, and no labor-intensive maintenance. We're currently offering no payments and no interest until Spring 2027, or 10% off installation, so the initial cost barrier is lower right now.

Can a metal roof actually reduce cooling costs in the Pacific Northwest?

Yes—our energy-efficient colors reflect heat rather than absorb it, with thermal emissivity up to 0.84 and initial solar reflectance to 0.55 (like our Aged Copper Penny). In Rose City Park's mild 11.5°C mean climate with 2957 annual sunshine hours, those reflective qualities reduce the heat gain asphalt shingles create, lowering air-conditioning demand on warm days without sacrificing warmth retention in winter. The Cool Roof Rating Council certification proves the performance in real-world conditions. It's not a dramatic savings in cooler regions, but every degree matters when you're heating most months—and reflectivity helps year-round.

Does a metal roof stand up to hail, and can it lower insurance costs?

Interlock aluminum carries the UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and our warranty even covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. The aluminum's inherent hardness and the panel's interlocking design distribute impact force across a larger area, so it resists damage that would crack asphalt or wood shingles. Many insurers recognize this durability and offer discounts on premiums for non-combustible metal roofing. In Rose City Park, hail is rare given the 1468 mm of rain per year versus snow and wind, but Class 4 protection is there if needed. Ask your agent—discounts vary, but the lower risk profile often reflects in your policy.

Is a metal roof Class A fire-rated, and why does it matter here?

Yes—aluminum is non-combustible, so Interlock offers Class A fire classification, the highest rating available. Our ICC-ES evaluation report (ESR-1790, reissued 2025) confirms compliance with all IBC and IRC fire codes. Rose City Park's building codes require Class A or Class B roofing in most zones; metal automatically qualifies without additives or special coatings. Beyond code compliance, a non-combustible roof prevents ember intrusion during wildfires (increasingly common in Oregon's fire seasons) and gives your home true fire resilience. Homeowners insurance sometimes reflects this in lower rates, and buyers increasingly value fire-safe homes.

How much maintenance does a metal roof really need?

Virtually none—that's the honest answer. Asphalt shingles need annual inspections and repair of curled or missing pieces; wood shingles rot in Rose City Park's 1468 mm annual rainfall and 36 freeze-thaw cycles; tile cracks and requires reseating. Interlock aluminum is CALGreen-verified for reduced maintenance because the aluminum oxide layer doesn't degrade, the Alunar 70% PVDF coating resists chalking and fading for 30 years, and the panels have no wood, felt, or organic materials to rot. Occasional gutter cleaning (normal for any roof in a 2957-hour-sunshine region) is all you need. You get peace of mind instead of a maintenance checklist.

Can you install a metal roof over my existing shingles, and how long does it take?

Yes—Interlock's extraordinary light weight (Slate at 0.41 lb/sq ft, Shake at 0.58, Mediterranean Tile at 0.59—about 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile) means no structural reinforcement is needed, and installation over existing roofs is standard practice. Our local team, Interlock Metal Roofing (PNW) Inc., has served the region since 1997 and handles both tear-off and over-roof installs routinely. Timeline depends on your home's size and complexity, but a typical residential installation takes 2–5 days. We install to specifications that handle Rose City Park's 116 km/h wind gusts and 1468 mm annual rainfall, so the process is thorough but not prolonged.

What does the lifetime warranty actually cover, and how does it transfer?

The Guardian warranty is a lifetime limited, non-prorated material warranty for the original owner—it covers rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance. 'Non-prorated' means there's no year-by-year deduction; coverage remains full for your ownership. It's transferable one time to the next owner for 50 years from completion, which significantly boosts your home's resale appeal. In a climate like Rose City Park's with 1468 mm rain, 48 cm snow, and 36 freeze-thaw days annually, that coverage is genuine insurance against the deterioration wood and asphalt can't prevent. No other roofing product offers this combination of permanence and equity value.

Does a metal roof actually help sell a house in Rose City Park?

Yes—a metal roof signals to buyers that they're inheriting a home free from the re-roofing expense that typically arrives within 10–15 years of purchase. The transferable 50-year warranty (non-prorated for the original owner, then 50 more years for the next) is a powerful selling point in a market where durability equals peace of mind. The profiles—Slate, Cedar Shingle, Shake, Mediterranean Tile, and Standing Seam—are available in finishes that enhance curb appeal, matching the architectural character of Rose City Park homes without looking industrial. Buyers increasingly prioritize low-maintenance, climate-resilient homes; a metal roof checks both boxes. Many regional real estate agents recognize the value advantage; it's worth discussing with yours.

Is a metal roof a good choice for Rose City Park’s climate?

Yes. Rose City Park averages about 48 cm of snow, 1468 mm of rain, roughly 36 freeze–thaw days a year, with peak wind gusts near 116 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.
