Don't misunderstand us, the roof is wonderful and we will continue to recommend this to a friend. If you would be able to 1) check for strapping or sheeting, 2) coordinate the start dates a bit closer 3) have the crews "run the metal broom" around the area daily and 4) ensure any gutter guards are replaced properly and vents are not covered with sheeting, 5) follow up with a telephone courtesy call well before the email survey. We love our new roof and have had comments that it looks like a "show home"! It was worth the frustration we had and look forward to many years of maintenance and trouble free performance with the Interlock product and its lifetime warranty.

Detailed Ratings

Sales Punctuality

★★★★★Strongly agree

Sales Knowledge

★★★★☆Agree

“Neil was well informed of the product and its merits. However, we encountered additional expense and frustration because it was determined that our roof (as are most in this district) was "strapped" and required to be sheeted prior to the installation of the roofing. A simple look in our garage or attic would have revealed this and costs would and delays would have not been a surprise.”

Employees Professionalism

★★★★★Strongly agree

Communication

★★★★☆Agree

“We had some confusion between having to talk with Shauna (?), Neil; the foreman (original who discovered the strapping), the next foreman and workers about concerns with aspects of the job from start to finish. Would have been better to have one contact for entire job.”

Installation Crew

★★★★☆Agree

“We were told that they ran out of a specific material that was required and were obtaining from additional job in area. Delayed completion by a few days again.”

Quality Of Materials

★★★★★Strongly agree

“We are extremely proud of the roof and have had compliments regarding it. We will still refer folks to Interlock for equally top rate product.”

Quality Of Workmanship

★★★★☆Agree

“The roof is wonderful!!! However, we have "gutter guard" installed in the eve's trough. This was pulled out to facilitate the installation of the roof and was not replaced properly. We had to get up on the ladder and re-screw it back in position. The crew initially sheeted over a bathroom vent but fixed it before metal roofing installed. Our eve trough was bent, allowing water to drip out at a corner instead of making its way to the drain.”

Clean & Safe

★★☆☆☆Disagree

“Okay, we have to say something here. They placed their jerry can of gas down on our lawn and killed it. Although the crew indicated they "cleaned" at the end of each day, we went around and picked up metal and nails in the yard that were a hazard to our dogs. At the end of the job, my husband went and bought a magnetic broom to sweep the yard and driveway and picked up an additional pail of nails.”

Professional Completion

★★★★☆Agree

“If we didn't have the aforementioned challenges, this would have been a "4". We love the "roof".”

Problem Resolution

★★★★★Strongly agree

“I have to say that, regardless of the "challenges", the staff were great at working with our concerns.”

Schedule

★★★☆☆Neutral

“We had the materials on our driveway (couldn't park on that side) for quite a while before job started due to manpower and getting the "bin". Then, between discovering that the roof needed to be sheeting and having your top foreman come two weeks later to "tell us it needed to be sheeted", it really put the job off schedule.”
