This job was very technical in that the roof was a complex series of dormers set on a steep pitch
Eleazor Genge was the foreman of the team of roofing contractors supplied by Interlock Industries (Ont) Inc. to reroof our house at the address above. The job was started in 2011 and completed in 2012 and involved both the installation of a new aluminum sloped roof and a new flat roof covered by a heavy rubber membrane. This job was very technical in that the roof was a complex series of dormers set on a steep pitch. There were numerous roof sections that required the metal shingles to be custom cut, and several of these sections were curved, which required much skill to execute properly. We were more than impressed with the level of craftsmanship that Mr. Genge brought to the job. His careful attention to detail and his vast knowledge of carpentry and metalwork provided us with an absolutely stunning end product. We feel extremely fortunate that Mr. Genge was the foreman provided on this job, and we commend his services to anyone looking to complete this type of work.

A return on our investment when we eventually sell our home
Re: Roofing installation on House and detached Garage. We became interested in your product when we saw a neighbour’s, (Len Sylvester) house roof during our investigation into a roof replacement. Although the pricing was expensive, the look, warranty, neighbourhood references and benefits of an Interlock roof, persuaded us to contract with you. The installation of an aluminum black slate roof on our house and garage is just being completed today. We are very satisfied with the result. It looks magnificent, and our neighbours are already commenting on the beautiful appearance. Moses and Fred were sent as our installation team, and we are very happy they were assigned to our job site. They are both extremely hard-working. They put in long hours during a very hot, humid summer period. Their work was professional, friendly to us and considerate of our neighbours. Moses’ experience and attention to detail have produced an excellent result on a complex roof structure. We look forward to many years of satisfaction and a return on our investment when we eventually sell our home.
Many Thanks, Yours sincerely John and Sandy Edmonds

Most home purchases are made on emotion rather than based on logic
Most home purchases are made on emotion rather than based on logic. Purchasers often fail to recognize basic elements of a house that would have an enormous effect on their purchase and liability. That’s why people should engage the services of a certified Home Inspector. Sometime later, a homeowner’s logic seems to kick in. when it comes time for one of those basic home elements to be repaired, replaced or upgraded, like a roofing system. A roof provides some limited mechanical protection against falling objects, but the primary purpose of a roof is to keep the building and its occupants protected from rain, snow, sun, wind and all the combinations of these. Further, roofs may also add to, or detract from, the appearance of a building. As a Home Inspector, I have seen them all — the good, the bad and the ugly. That is why, when it came time to replace the roof on my own home, it was important to me to have a top quality, effective, affordable and good-looking roofing system that I would not have to worry about again for anything – ever. That is why I took a serious interest in INTERLOCK. It was only logical. I can say with some certitude that this is the last house my family and I will ever own. It is here that my wife and I plan to enjoy our reclining years. I did not want to have to worry about replacing something like my roof every 10 to 20 years. It’s only logical to do it once. Now, I must admit that when I first saw the dollar value of the installed Interlock roof, I was taken aback. There is no question this is a major investment. Yet, since it was installed over my existing roof, I saved the cost of having to have the old roof stripped off. Furthermore, there are the additional savings of never having to put on or strip off any future roofs. For that matter, I will never again have the worry and stress of getting another roof. Over time, I feel that I am well ahead of the game, and I have no regrets about my choice of Interlock. INTERLOCK has definitely added to the aesthetic appeal of our home and increased its market value. The Interlock Lifetime warranty with a 50-year transferable non-prorated limited warranty will give us another level of comfort when we eventually do sell our home. A warranty like that causes a reality check on one's own mortality — the Interlock Roof may very well outlast us! Only time will tell. It’s easy to understand why I can spend my time now inspecting other peoples’ roofs and never worry again about my own. Interlock may not be for everyone — too bad – for everyone. But then again, from a Home Inspectors’ point of view, maybe it’s not so bad after all!
