Review: July 20, 2016Completion: June 9, 2016

Hello Greg, I just had to drop you a line to tell you how pleased we are with the Interlock Roofing System that was installed last week. I have to admit that as good as I was hoping it would look, it turned out to be so much better than I had even hoped. We couldn’t be prouder of how our house looks now; the new roof is visually stunning. We can now breathe a huge sigh of relief, knowing that we’ll never again have to go out into the yard and pick up the pieces of asphalt shingles that would blow off of the roof after a storm or a high wind day. To boot, the very day after the roof was completed, we had someone who identified himself only as “your nosy neighbor from 10 miles down the road,” who stopped, knocked on our door and started asking questions about the roof. He was shocked to hear that it was a metal roof. He thought that we had installed a slate roof! He was very interested to hear all the facts about the roof, and suddenly I became Interlock Roofing’s most avid salesman. I brought out your business card so that he could take a picture of it with his cell phone, and he said he’d be contacting you soon. I’ve also been talking about the roof with some of the guys at work who had seen the before and after pictures that I brought in, and I’m sure that you will be hearing from some of them in the future too. Now, as much as I couldn’t be happier with contacting you and doing business with you, I have to tell you that even you will have to take a back seat to the super awesome job of your installers, Jesse and his team. To say we were blown away by these guys would be the understatement of the century. They came in like a whirlwind and started doing their thing and made astounding progress in such a short period of time, it blew us away. Jesse himself is such a great face to have attached to your company. He is professional, knowledgeable, and so personable that we knew in an instant that we were in good hands with him and his team. All of his team members were that way, and honestly, the hardest working group of guys that you will ever witness. We expected it to take anywhere from 5 days to a week to get our whole roof done. These guys had it done in 2 days and a couple of hours, and they left no stone unturned in doing the A-1 job that was promised. They even fixed a couple of cosmetic items on our existing siding to boot! What a great bunch of guys. And let me reiterate one more time,…Interlock, as a company, should feel confident and proud to have Jesse and his team representing them. I’m positive you will never find a better team to install your product than them. Again, thank you for the product and the work that you’ve done. You now have not only a very satisfied customer in us, but you also have a couple of very enthusiastic ambassadors for Interlock Roofing Systems.

Review: June 17, 2017Completion: February 17, 2017

I have made, and continuously still make, numerous recommendations to family & friends to install a Interlock roof. And, I have produced pictures on demand that I stored on my smart phone. If possible, I would be appreciative if I could get the drone footage that Jesse had taken after the finishing of the installation. I believe it would be a great selling point coming from a true customer to help propel the Interlock name. There are just a couple areas on the roof that the installation crew could have touched-on during the installation, but overall the roof looks simply amazing. Quality certainly displays the professionalism the installers had put into their work. Since the installation of our new roof, we have received numerous compliments from many of our neighbors that walk around our subdivision, plus a handful of neighbors in the adjoining subdivisions. Many questions have been asked with many answers given. We are definitely happy with our new Interlock roof. We have NOT once questioned or second guessed our decision to install an Interlock roof. It is one of the best decisions we have ever made for re-investing in our home...Thank you, Interlock!

Review: June 8, 2008Completion: November 30, 2007

I never really thought I could be thrilled about a roof, but I have to tell you; our new Interlock roof is beautiful! It adds true elegance to our home. We know it adds value as well, and the fact that we will never need to re-roof again is a definite advantage. Everyone within our organization, from the initial phone contact to the installation crew, was courteous and pleasant to work with. The install went smoothly and the crew kept the site clean from beginning to end. Everybody we have shown our Interlock roof to has seemed quite impressed also. We would (and in fact have already done so) recommend Interlock Roofing to others.

Review: July 20, 2016Completion: November 13, 2008

Excellent roof! Looks good! The installers were courteous and professional. Put the tarp all around the house and kept the site very clean. I was impressed with their super service. They bent over backward to please us. The A-Team of Roofing! When it rains, it is NOT any louder, and we are in a wind zone, and shingles have not blown off, and we have had the roof since 2008. The snow slides off, too! And the salesman knows his product and explains it well. It will add value to the house. Unlike asphalt, that's like tar and paper, and doesn't hold up. The Interlock Lifetime Roof is super durable!d Greg Weber the salesman, knows his product and explains it well. It will add value to the house. Unlike asphalt, that’s like tar and paper and doesn’t hold up. The Interlock Lifetime Roof is super durable!

Review: May 17, 2017Completion: August 10, 2009

We purchased our roof in 2009 and as you can see from the pictures taken in May of 2017, our roof looks as new as the day we bought it. Here are the things we have noticed most about our Interlock Lifetime Roof over the last 8 years. It keeps our house much cooler in the summer than the asphalt roof we used to have. It really sheds snow, and the snow guards work great. We never need to use a snow rake. We love the durability and the curb appeal. Greg Weber our representative, who we were enthused to learn, is still with the company. When we saw him in 2009 he laid out all the variables in a professional way and our Interlock Roof has lived up to all of our expectations and promises he made. All companies promise results, service, and quality. Interlock delivers.

Review: May 16, 2017Completion: July 31, 2008

The installation was super smooth. Every installer was courteous and professional. We get lots of compliments, and people stop by all the time to admire it. One of the biggest misconceptions about metal roofing is people think it’s loud. Our Interlock roof is very silent. The only way I know if it’s raining is if I look out a window. Also, the snow just slides off. We are also in a wind tunnel area, and we have never lost an Interlock shingle, and we have had the roof for many years. We were so pleased with our Interlock roof that we put the same roof on our lake home in northern Wisconsin. We get a lot more snow up there and the Interlock’s snow-shedding performance capabilities are second to none on that roof, too!

★★★★★
Review: April 10, 2017Completion: March 17, 2015

I love the roof! It looks great, and the squirrels that we’re crawling all over my old asphalt roof slide right off it. The snow slides off, too. I hope to get some $500 referrals. The crew was terrific, hardworking, courteous, polite, and clean.

Review: April 23, 2009Completion: May 5, 2008

Drip, drip, drip. This is not a sound you want to hear at 3:30 am… in bed… coming from your attic… in the dead of winter. A quick peek in the attic confirmed my worst fears, the ice dam on the roof was allowing melted water to seep through the crappy asphalt shingles and into the house. We called a local contractor and had the ice dam removed, but this didn’t fix the underlying problem that our current roof was cheap and damaged. My wife and I moved into a beautiful three-story brick Tudor on Madison’s near west side in the fall of 06′. It was perfect in that it had been beautifully remodeled with gorgeous woodwork, marble, and stunning attention to detail, with the exception of the roof. We had decided that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this was the house we were going to stay in until retirement, so why not invest in a metal roof. After a couple of weeks of research and interviewing, we settled on Interlock. Part of the choice was made on the quality of the product, and part was made on the salesmanship of the rep, Chuck. Work started and except for some problems with the weather, things progressed smoothly. We were especially impressed with the steps the crew took in regard to safety, and our stay-at-home neighbor told us about how exciting the crew was, “you’re definitely getting your money's worth,” was her exact quote. At the end of the job, the crew even emptied all the trash we had pulled out of the attic for us. Now that’s service! After everything is said and done, we’ve been able to cap off our gorgeous house with an equally gorgeous roof.

Review: April 16, 2026Completion: February 20, 2009

I had Interlock put on a beautiful red slate roof 17 years ago.The roof still looks beautiful. 5 years ago, I had them also re-roof my garage with the same type of slate. The roofs look gorgeous and I have no maintenance whatsoever.I get complements all the time. The guy whom I contracted with was named "Tim' but has since died. He was a really nice guy. Back in 2009, the roof was much cheaper. ( I actually paid more for the garage 5 years ago!) I am extremely happy with the roofs. The guys did a wonderful job, replacing rotted boards where necessary. They also told me about very cheap gutters I could buy at Menards instead of those ridiculously - priced "special" gutter systems. I bought them and they placed them on my buildings.This home will go to my daughter one day; I do not want her to have to lift a finger. Note that I had an asphalt roof previously. It lasted only 12 years. The shingles curled up under the sun and cracked. They looked terrible. I can honestly say that these metals roofs by Interlock are very much worth what you pay for them. They will last a lifetime with almost no maintenance. Instead of replacing a roof every 15 years and paying lots for asphalt or fiberglass, their metal roofs last very long and you will never have to re- roof again.

Review: May 16, 2017Completion: September 24, 2014

Dear Interlock Lifetime Roofing Systems: We purchased our Interlock Lifetime Roof in June 2014. We are very happy with the look, durability of the material, and finish. After a snowfall, the heat of the sun will warm the roof and allow the snow to shed from the roof. We have a great sense of security, knowing it can withstand higher winds than conventional asphalt. In fact, our neighbors lost many shingles in the last major wind storm, and our Interlock roof proved to be the high wind resistance product it is with all shingles intact. We love the fact it’s more reliable and has peace of mind knowing it has lots of longevity and will look brand new not only now but down the road. We also received a discount on our homeowner’s insurance. Overall, we were very satisfied with our sales representative Greg Weber, the company, the service, and the product.

★★★★★
Review: May 10, 2017Completion: March 20, 2017

In March 2017 we had an Interlock Lifetime Roof installed. Greg Weber, the salesman, was not pushy. We were very impressed with his salesmanship and the product. He also offered to have the Interlock product put on our wishing well in the front yard. That was something we really appreciated. The clean-up was excellent! Many neighbors and people who " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">walk by the house have noticed the roof and asked a lot of questions. We have gotten lots of compliments!

★★★★★
Review: April 10, 2017Completion: February 23, 2017

The Interlock crew was able to take some extra time to coordinate with another contractor for solar installation. As a result, the final the result looks great and very functional. The materials used are very high quality, and they worked efficiently and cleaned up when finished.

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Capitol Heights

The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Capitol Heights, Wisconsin. 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 Capitol Heights.

Will metal roofing hold up through Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles?

Yes—aluminum actually thrives in freeze-thaw conditions. Capitol Heights experiences about 79 freeze-thaw days per year, which destroys asphalt (it cracks and curls) and weakens wood shakes. Aluminum expands and contracts with temperature swings but doesn't crack, split, or lose structural integrity. The roofing-grade 3105-H24 alloy (ASTM B209) is engineered for this cycling. The oxide layer that forms on aluminum self-heals when scratched, so freeze-thaw damage doesn't expose bare metal to corrosion. That's why Interlock panels have been installed from coastal salt-air homes to an Antarctic research station—extreme temperature swings are handled by design.

How does metal roofing handle Capitol Heights' snow and ice load?

Metal roofing sheds snow and ice efficiently because the smooth, interlocked surface prevents buildup that traps water underneath. With about 88 cm of snow per year in this area, proper shedding is critical to preventing ice dams that cause leaks and soffit damage. The four-way interlocking aluminum panels create a unified surface with no gaps for water to penetrate. If you need snow guards for steep pitches or to protect walkways, they install easily on the standing seam or slate profiles. The material's light weight—the Slate profile at roughly 0.41 lb/sq ft—means your structure handles snow load without reinforcement, unlike concrete tile roofs that require expensive framing upgrades.

Why doesn't aluminum roofing rust like steel does?

Aluminum cannot rust because it contains no iron—rust is iron oxide, and there's no iron to oxidize. Instead, aluminum forms a transparent oxide layer that actually protects the metal underneath. When that layer gets scratched, it self-heals automatically by reacting with oxygen in the air. In Capitol Heights, where you get about 822 mm of rain annually, this self-healing property is invaluable. The Alunar® 70% PVDF fluorocarbon finish (warranted 30 years against chalking and fading per ASTM D4214) is applied to both sides of every panel—extra insurance in damp climates. Steel roofs rust through; aluminum roofs don't. Your roof will outlive the house before corrosion becomes an issue.

Can metal roofing stand up to Wisconsin wind and ice storms?

Yes. Capitol Heights sees typical wind gusts around 96 km/h, and Interlock's four-way interlocking panels are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph (193 km/h) when installed to specification. The four-way system—each panel locks to its neighbors on all four sides—creates a unified, rigid surface that doesn't lift or separate in gusts. UL 2218 Class 4 impact testing confirms that even hailstones up to 1.5 inches don't puncture the panels, so wind-driven ice and debris won't either. The standing seam profile offers additional wind resistance for high-exposure sites. Unlike asphalt shingles, which get torn off in storms and leave your house vulnerable, this roof gets stronger the harder the wind blows.

What's the actual warranty on Interlock metal roofing, and how long will it really last?

The Guardian warranty is a lifetime limited, non-prorated material warranty for the original owner—covering rust, rot, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance. It's transferable once to the next owner for 50 years from completion, which adds real resale value. In practical terms, the roofing-grade aluminum alloy (3105-H24 / 3003-H24, ASTM B209) and Alunar® 70% PVDF coating (30-year fade warranty) last well beyond 50 years in normal conditions. Interlock has manufactured panels since 1998, and installed roofs from that era are still performing. Freeze-thaw cycling in Capitol Heights at 79 days per year doesn't degrade aluminum—it's the material that withstands it best. This is the last roof you buy.

Is metal roofing light enough to install over my existing roof?

Yes, in most cases. The Mediterranean Tile profile weighs about 0.59 lb/sq ft—roughly 96% lighter than real concrete or clay tile—so it installs over most existing roofs with no structural reinforcement needed. The Shake profile runs about 0.58 lb/sq ft, and the Slate is even lighter at 0.41 lb/sq ft. Compare that to asphalt shingles (around 2–3 lb/sq ft when layered) and you're often removing less weight than you're adding. A structural engineer can confirm your specific framing, but the aluminum's light weight solves the expensive-upgrade problem that keeps most homeowners from considering real slate or tile. In Capitol Heights, where snow loads reach about 88 cm per year, having a roof that's strong but light is a real advantage for both structure and energy efficiency.

Will a metal roof keep my house cooler and lower energy bills?

energy-efficient colors reflect more solar heat than asphalt absorbs. Interlock's rated reflectance reaches up to 0.55 for Aged Copper Penny, with thermal emissivity of 0.84—meaning the roof reflects heat rather than trapping it. Capitol Heights gets about 3128 sunshine hours per year, so summertime cooling savings add up. The Cool Roof Rating Council rating confirms the performance. In winter, when you're heating, the reflective surface doesn't hurt because the sun's angle is low and most heat is generated indoors anyway. Metal roofing paired with proper attic ventilation and insulation typically shows measurable summer cooling reduction without winter heating penalty. The lighter weight also means less thermal mass to heat and cool, improving efficiency year-round.

How much maintenance does metal roofing really need?

Virtually none. Unlike asphalt shingles that degrade in sun and cold, wood shakes that split and rot, or tile that cracks and leaks around fasteners, aluminum roofing doesn't require regular maintenance. You don't seal it, don't re-nail it, and don't replace damaged sections. Rain rinses away debris; snow and ice shed naturally. In Capitol Heights, with about 822 mm of rain annually and 79 freeze-thaw days per year, asphalt shingles need frequent attention—moss treatment, debris removal, sealing. Metal roofing in the same climate runs unattended. The only task: inspect gutters and downspouts annually (standard for any roof). The Alunar® 70% PVDF coating (30-year warranty against chalking and fading) ensures the finish stays bright and protective with zero intervention. That's the whole maintenance plan.

Who installs Interlock metal roofing in the Capitol Heights area?

Interlock Metal Roofing, the manufacturer, has been serving the region since 2001. That's not a contractor who stocks the product—it's the company that engineered and built it, installing it directly. You're working with people who understand the ICC-ES evaluation report (ESR-1790, reissued 2025), the UL 2218 Class 4 rating, the four-way interlocking system, and how to handle freeze-thaw cycles specific to Milwaukee County. They've installed thousands of roofs from this plant in Delta, BC, across North America. Local service means no middleman markup, direct warranty support, and installers who know what they're doing on Wisconsin freeze-thaw roofs. Call them directly for a site visit and honest assessment of your home's needs.

Is metal roofing better for the environment than asphalt shingles?

Yes, significantly. Aluminum is about 95% recyclable—when your roof finally needs replacement (likely 50+ years from now), the entire thing goes back to the aluminum mill as raw material, not a landfill. Asphalt shingles, by contrast, are torn off every 15–20 years and sent to the dump, where they sit for decades. Over a 50-year period, a Capitol Heights home might generate four asphalt tear-offs versus zero metal tear-offs. That's four truckloads to landfill avoided. The roofing-grade 3105-H24 aluminum alloy (ASTM B209) is energy-efficient to produce compared to virgin aluminum, and its durability—no replacement, no maintenance chemicals, no re-roofing cycles—saves resources across your home's life. CALGreen verification confirms the reduced-maintenance profile. Choosing metal ends the asphalt cycle.

Is a metal roof a good choice for Capitol Heights’s climate?

Yes. Capitol Heights averages about 88 cm of snow, 822 mm of rain, roughly 79 freeze–thaw days a year, with peak wind gusts near 96 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.
