  • Precision weatherproof seams (profiles: slate, cedar, shake, tile) and mechanical fastening (profile: standing seam) deliver long-term leak protection during wind-driven rain events.
  • Coated with the Alunar® Coating System (no visible aluminum surface) to provide a durable, corrosion‑resistant finish suited to Fox River’s humid springs and wet autumns.
  • Built to shed heavy Wisconsin snow loads—panels reduce rooftop accumulation and help limit ice-dam formation during Fox River freeze–thaw cycles.
  • Tested to withstand severe windstorms (193+ km/h / 120+ mph) that can impact the Lake Michigan corridor and inland gust events affecting Kenosha County properties.
  • Engineered seams and load-capable attachment reduce panel movement and fatigue from repeated freeze–thaw cycling common in the Fox River region.
  • Resists corrosion from road de‑icing salt and lake-effect moisture found along Fox River roadways and Kenosha County shorelines, extending service life versus uncoated metals.
  • Specifically designed to handle intense short-duration rainfall (including atmospheric river–driven deluges) that can produce rapid runoff in Fox River valleys.
  • Unlike coastal salt air exposure, Fox River homeowners primarily face freshwater spray and road‑salt exposure—this system’s coating and metallurgy address those inland corrosive factors.
  • Panel surfaces and drainage detailing inhibit moss and biological growth on shaded roofs along the Fox River, reducing cleaning frequency and preserving drainage performance.

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 Fox River

The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Fox River, 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 Fox River.

Why does aluminum roofing handle Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles better than asphalt?

Aluminum expands and contracts uniformly without degrading; asphalt becomes brittle and cracks under repeated freezing and thawing. Fox River experiences about 80 freeze-thaw days per year, which causes traditional shingles to split and curl. Interlock's 3105-H24 aluminum alloy maintains its elasticity year after year. The four-way interlocking system also accommodates movement without separating. After 26 years of installations from coastal climates to Antarctica, the material has proven it won't degrade from this cycle. Asphalt typically fails within 15–20 years here; Interlock carries a lifetime limited material warranty.

How does a metal roof handle snow load and ice dams in Fox River winters?

Metal's smooth surface sheds snow and ice more effectively than asphalt, reducing ice-dam formation that causes water backup and leaks. Fox River averages about 82 centimeters of snow annually. Interlock's Slate and Cedar Shingle profiles feature micro-texturing that grips snow safely without trapping moisture, while the interlocked seams prevent water from working beneath the surface. The system can be ordered with snow guards to meet your specific roof pitch and exposure. Unlike heavy tile or slate, aluminum's light weight (Shingle at 0.41 lb/sq ft) means no structural reinforcement is required, and the roof won't stress your framing during heavy snow events.

Can a metal roof withstand Wisconsin wind and lake-effect gusts?

Yes. Interlock's four-way interlocking panels are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph when installed to specification. Fox River's typical daily-max winds reach about 20 km/h, but gusts can spike to 99 km/h—conditions that test a roof's integrity. The interlocking geometry distributes lateral stress across the entire roof plane rather than concentrating it on individual fasteners. Unlike shingles that lift and tear, the locked seams remain secure. This design earned ICC-ES evaluation ESR-1790 compliance with current IBC/IRC standards. Many homeowners in exposed locations have reported their metal roofs performing flawlessly through windstorms that damaged neighboring asphalt roofs.

Does a metal roof reduce hail damage and insurance premiums?

Interlock achieves UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the warranty even covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. Class 4 rating qualifies many homeowners for insurance discounts because the roof resists damage that would total an asphalt roof. Some insurers offer 10–20% premium reductions for Class 4 metal roofs. Fox River's climate history and typical spring/summer convection patterns mean hail is a real risk; switching to a Class 4 roof removes that claim frequency from your record. Unlike asphalt, which fractures and requires replacement after large hail, aluminum deflects impact without permanent deformation. Contact your agent to confirm available discounts—many have already recognized this protection.

Can I install a metal roof that looks like tile without reinforcing my roof structure?

Yes. Interlock's Mediterranean Tile profile weighs about 0.59 lb/sq ft—roughly 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile—so no structural reinforcement is necessary. Most Fox River homes can simply install over their existing roof, which also adds an insulation layer and reduces tear-off labor and landfill waste. Concrete tile can weigh 12–15 lb/sq ft and often requires framing upgrades costing thousands. Interlock's ICC-ES evaluation ESR-1790 confirms the lightweight aluminum achieves the same fire and wind performance as heavier materials. You get authentic tile aesthetics with the practical advantage of installation on nearly any existing structure.

Will a metal roof reduce cooling costs in summer?

energy-efficient Interlock colors reflect solar heat rather than absorb it, reducing cooling load during Wisconsin's warmer months. Reflectance values reach up to 0.55 (Aged Copper Penny profile), and all qualifying colors have thermal emissivity of 0.84, both measured and rated by the Cool Roof Rating Council. This is significant because asphalt roofs absorb heat and re-radiate it into the attic. Over Fox River's roughly 3,094 sunshine hours per year, that differential compounds. A reflective metal roof can lower attic temperatures by 20–40°F compared to dark asphalt, reducing AC runtime and extending compressor life. Combined with the lifetime warranty, the energy savings justify the upgrade within 10–15 years for most households.

What makes Interlock's lifetime warranty actually valuable?

The Guardian warranty is a lifetime limited, non-prorated material warranty for the original owner—meaning no depreciation schedule—covering rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance. It's transferable once, providing the next owner 50 years from completion. This differs sharply from asphalt warranties, which pro-rate after year 10 and cover only manufacturing defects, not normal wear. Interlock has manufactured since 1998, and the company backs every roof installed since 2001 in Wisconsin. If a panel fails outside manufacturing defect, it's replaced at no material cost. For a Fox River home where you might stay 15–25 years, that warranty confidence is rare. Resale value also benefits because the next owner inherits decades of remaining protection.

How much maintenance does a metal roof actually need?

Metal roofs require virtually no maintenance beyond occasional gutter clearing. Unlike asphalt shingles that degrade from UV and thermal cycling, or wood shake that splits and rots, Interlock's aluminum oxide layer and 30-year Alunar PVDF coating are self-maintaining. Asphalt roofs in climates like Fox River—with about 80 freeze-thaw days per year and 835 mm rainfall—need algae treatment, sealant reapplication, and shingle replacement within 15–20 years. Wood shake demands annual inspection and costly repairs. Interlock's CALGreen verification confirms reduced maintenance burden. No adhesive strips, no granule loss, no moss growth on the smooth aluminum surface. You'll never re-seal a metal roof. Most owners report a inspection every 5 years is sufficient and costs little.

Who installs Interlock metal roofing in Fox River?

Interlock Metal Roofing has served the Fox River region since 2001, providing direct installation and warranty support from our local team. We understand Kenosha County's climate demands—the heavy snowfall averaging 82 centimeters, the freeze-thaw intensity at roughly 80 cycles per year, and wind gusts reaching 99 km/h. Our installers are trained on all five Interlock profiles (Slate, Cedar Shingle, Shake, Mediterranean Tile, Standing Seam) and ICC-ES ESR-1790 compliance procedures. We handle permit coordination, roof inspections, installation scheduling, and warranty claims directly. Unlike distant contractors, we're here to oversee long-term performance and address any concerns. Call us for a site evaluation and proposal; most Fox River projects start within 2–3 weeks of approval.

Is a metal roof fire-safe?

Aluminum is non-combustible and Interlock roofing achieves Class A fire classification—the highest available—because the aluminum substrate cannot ignite or spread flame. This is especially valuable in Wisconsin, where wildfires occasionally threaten rural and suburban properties. Class A rating also reduces insurance premiums for some policies and may qualify you for higher coverage limits. The ICC-ES evaluation ESR-1790 confirms the fire rating under current building codes. Asphalt shingles are combustible and typically achieve Class C at best. If your property is in a high-fire-risk zone or near wooded areas, the non-combustible metal roof provides peace of mind and measurable risk reduction. Check with your homeowner's insurer about premium adjustments and coverage benefits.

Is a metal roof a good choice for Fox River’s climate?

Yes. Fox River averages about 82 cm of snow, 835 mm of rain, roughly 80 freeze–thaw days a year, with peak wind gusts near 99 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.
