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 Lake View

The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Lake View, 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 Lake View.

Will a metal roof handle Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles?

Yes—aluminum actually thrives in freeze-thaw conditions because it has no moisture absorption. Lake View experiences about 84 freeze-thaw days per year with roughly 89 cm of snow, and traditional materials like wood and asphalt expand and contract with temperature swings, leading to cracking and curling. Aluminum expands minimally, and the Alunar 70% PVDF coating (warranted 30 years against cracking) remains flexible across temperature extremes. The four-way interlocking design allows each panel to move independently without stressing seams, so your roof won't develop the splits or ice-dam vulnerabilities that plague shingles in climates like yours.

How does a metal roof perform with Lake View's snow load and ice buildup?

Metal roofs shed snow more effectively than asphalt because the smooth, hard surface prevents ice dams from forming as easily. Lake View averages about 89 cm of snow annually with mean wind gusts reaching 104 km/h, so snow management matters. Interlock's four-way interlocking panels are engineered to handle heavy loading, and if you choose the Slate or Shake profile, we can install snow guards at peak and valley lines to control avalanching onto walkways or vehicles. The lightweight aluminum (the Shingle profile weighs just 0.41 lb/sq ft) means no structural stress even with seasonal snow accumulation, and the tight panel lock prevents wind-driven snow from infiltrating seams.

Can metal roofing withstand the wind gusts in this area?

Absolutely. Lake View's typical wind gusts reach 104 km/h, and Interlock metal roofs are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph (193 km/h) when installed to specification. The four-way interlocking aluminum panels create a unified surface that doesn't lift or separate like individual shingles. Each panel locks on all four edges to its neighbors, distributing wind load evenly across the entire roof plane rather than concentrating stress at fasteners. This design, validated in ICC-ES evaluation ESR-1790, is why the system performs in coastal and mountainous regions where wind and weather are routine.

Why won't my metal roof rust in Wisconsin's wet climate?

Aluminum cannot rust because it contains no iron; it's the iron in steel that oxidizes in wet conditions. Lake View receives about 781 mm of rain annually plus 89 cm of snow, so moisture exposure is constant. When aluminum's surface is scratched, the oxide layer self-heals within hours—a property steel roofing doesn't possess. Beyond the material itself, Interlock applies Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon coating to both sides of every panel, an extra safeguard especially valuable in high-moisture climates. This dual protection—non-ferrous aluminum plus a 30-year-warranted coating—means you'll never face the rust staining or degradation that can affect painted steel roofs after 10–15 years.

Will I need to reinforce my roof structure for a metal roof?

No structural reinforcement is needed, which is a major advantage in older homes. Interlock's aluminum panels are extraordinarily light—the Tile profile, for example, weighs about 0.59 lb/sq ft, roughly 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile. Most existing roof structures were designed to support asphalt shingles or wood shake, so aluminum is a drop-in replacement requiring no engineering work or added expense. This lightness is especially valuable in Lake View, where 84 annual freeze-thaw cycles can stress structural connections; the minimal load means less stress over decades. You can even install directly over your existing roof, eliminating tear-off labor and landfill waste.

Do metal roofs reduce cooling costs?

energy-efficient Interlock colors reduce cooling load by reflecting heat rather than absorbing it. The Aged Copper Penny finish, for instance, has initial solar reflectance up to 0.55 and thermal emissivity of 0.84, meaning it bounces summer radiation and releases absorbed warmth efficiently—the opposite of dark asphalt. Lake View receives about 3,089 sunshine hours per year, and while Wisconsin winters are long, spring and summer cooling matters. Metal's reflective properties also matter year-round: in winter, reflectance reduces the temperature swings that stress shingles during freeze-thaw cycling. Cool Roof Rating Council certification confirms the energy benefit; combined with aluminum's conductivity, you're trading the solar furnace effect of asphalt for a roof that keeps interior temperatures more stable.

Are metal roofs covered well by insurance in hail-prone areas?

Yes, and your insurer may offer discounts. Interlock metal roofing carries UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the Guardian Warranty covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. While Lake View's hail frequency isn't extreme, it does experience severe weather, and Class 4 impact resistance is rare in the roofing world. Many insurers recognize this durability and reduced claim risk; contact your agent about potential premium reductions. The aluminum itself won't dent permanently from typical hail, and the four-way interlocking design distributes impact load across multiple panels. Over a 50-year roof life, that resilience compounds—fewer stress points, fewer storm-related failures, better loss history for your home's insurance profile.

How much maintenance does a metal roof actually need?

Virtually none compared to wood shake, slate, or tile. Metal roofs don't require annual cleaning to prevent algae, fungal growth, or debris accumulation the way organic materials do, especially in Lake View's 781 mm annual rainfall. Unlike asphalt, Interlock panels don't shed granules, so gutters stay cleaner and downspouts remain clear longer. The Alunar 70% PVDF coating resists chalking and fading (warranted 30 years per ASTM D4214), meaning no recoating cycles. Occasional rinsing after heavy storms is optional; it's purely cosmetic. The CALGreen-verified reduced-maintenance profile means lower lifetime ownership cost—no yearly inspections, no spot repairs, no preventive sealant applications. You buy the roof and forget it, which is the whole point of aluminum's durability.

Is the upfront cost worth it over the life of the roof?

Yes, when you calculate total installed cost against lifespan. A typical asphalt roof lasts 15–20 years and requires replacement in Lake View by roughly 2040–2045, given 89 cm snow, 84 freeze-thaw days, and UV exposure across 3,089 sunshine hours annually. Interlock's Guardian Warranty is lifetime limited for the original owner and transferable for 50 years to the next owner—that's a single roof covering two ownership generations. The non-prorated material guarantee covers rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance. Over 50 years, asphalt means 2.5 replacements, tear-off labor, disposal fees, and rising material costs; Interlock means one purchase, one installation, and zero replacement expenses. Most homeowners recover the higher initial investment through avoided future roof work alone.

What's involved in installing a metal roof, and can you install over my existing roof?

Installation is straightforward and often doesn't require tear-off. Our crews fasten Interlock panels directly to roof decking or over your existing asphalt shingles using corrosion-resistant fasteners, which eliminates labor costs and waste. The lightweight aluminum panels (Shingle at 0.41 lb/sq ft, Tile at 0.59 lb/sq ft) mean existing structures handle the load without reinforcement, even under Lake View's seasonal snow accumulation. Four-way interlocking ensures panels lock permanently once installed, creating a unified system that resists 120 mph winds and the 104 km/h gusts common here. The entire process typically takes 2–4 days depending on roof size and complexity. Because we've served the region since 2001, we navigate local permitting and building code requirements (ICC-ES ESR-1790) without delays, so your roof is watertight and code-approved quickly.

Is a metal roof a good choice for Lake View’s climate?

Yes. Lake View averages about 89 cm of snow, 781 mm of rain, roughly 84 freeze–thaw days a year, with peak wind gusts near 104 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.
