The Interlocking roof really has added to the attractiveness of the house

August 4, 1998

We wanted to let you know how pleased we are with our new Interlock Roof. The initial information session, the quality of the product and workmanship and the follow-up have been excellent. In the low-key introductory session, we received sufficient Information to make an informed decision. With the range of colours and styles, we had several options that would have worked for our house. We were convinced that this product would have long-lasting benefits to the appearance of our house. The men who worked on our house, as well as being friendly, courteous and knowledgeable about the product, worked quickly. It was really appreciated how they tidied as they went along. They kept us informed about the progress of their work and, in the end, did a walkthrough of the whole job. They explained how to go on the roof safely to do any future chimney work, for example. The Interlocking roof really has added to the attractiveness of the house. It looks smart and has drawn interest from neighbours and passers-by. We like the way the interlocking roof has become an integral part of the eaves troughing and protects the fascia boards, which will provide extra strength and protection. Already we notice that the autumn leaves are sliding away – and the squirrels too! We anticipate that snow and ice will act in the same way. We look forward to a roof that will continue to look good over time and provide Increased protection and insulation from the elements. We would have no hesitation in recommending your roof to others.

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!

The roof is actually quieter than our previous layer of 3 composition roofs!

I had expressed concerns to you about the actual appearance of the Interlock Roof. I thought from the pictures shown to us that it might look a bit 'plastic.' Such is not the case. The roof is really quite beautiful and a pleasure to the eye. I also expressed anxiety about the noise that might occur with hard rains. Once again, this was not the case, and the roof (with the 1/2 inch foam underlay) is actually quieter than our previous layer of 3 composition roofs! This was a surprise to us both. The roof and foam also work as you promised on hot, sun-drenched days. Our interior ceiling is cooler to the touch than before... much cooler. An added bonus is the fact that I will never have to clean my rain gutters of those darn grit pebbles that our old comp-roof shed like cat hair. I will not miss that job! To reiterate, the product itself is fantastic, exceeded only by the installation and craftsmanship of your workers. We wish you well here on the islands for a long and prosperous business venture. If you continue to do business with others as you have with us, we are positive you will do very well indeed. With gratitude for a magnificent roof that we feel will keep us dry for numerous decades, even here on the salt-laden beaches of North Shore. With Fond Aloha, P.S. Please expect to hear from us in two years when we add a room on top of our garage. We will want to re-roof it at that time with the matching light grey Interlock roof!!!
