Kamloops Metal Roofing Review | Outstanding Service and Craftsmanship from Estimate to Installation

Kamloops, British Columbia, is shaped by its river valleys, rugged hills, and an impressive 2,000 hours of sunshine yearly. Just above the winding Nechako Drive, not far from the banks of the South Thompson River, Rob’s home now carries something as enduring as the land it stands on: a Deep Charcoal Interlock Shake Metal Roofing System.

This neighbourhood is more than a quiet hillside—it’s part of a city known for its spirit. Kamloops is proudly called the Tournament Capital of Canada, and whether it’s athletics, arts, or architecture, this community shows up with intention. A home here deserves the same care and attention to performance. That’s exactly what Rob found in his experience with Interlock.

Rob’s 5-Star Review:

This isn’t just about metal roofing. It’s about trusting a system that won’t crack, curl, or quit. The Interlock Metal Roofing System delivers what most products promise but can’t: a lifetime of durability, energy efficiency, and peace of mind. In a city where winter winds roll off the mountains and the summer sun hits hard, having a roof that’s wind-resistant, solar-compatible, and built to last isn’t a luxury—it’s thoughtful planning that makes you feel smart and resourceful.

And the best part? Rob will never re-roof again. That’s not just a marketing claim. It’s a testament to the reliability of the Interlock Metal Roofing System—a 4-way interlocking system backed by a lifetime warranty, installed by a team that, as Rob puts it, ‘takes pride in their workmanship.

Your roof is more than just a lid on your house. It’s your first line of defence, a bold statement of style, and—if you choose wisely—the last one you’ll ever need, just like Rob did in Kamloops with the Interlock Metal Roofing System.

Top 10 Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Kamloops, BC

What is the best roofing system for Kamloops’ climate?

Kamloops experiences a semi-arid climate with hot, dry summers, cold winters, and high UV exposure year-round. This combination takes a toll on most roofing materials.

Interlock® Metal Roofing is engineered to thrive in Kamloops’ climate. It reflects UV rays to reduce heat buildup, withstands freeze-thaw cycles, sheds snow easily, and resists wind up to 193 km/h (120 mph)—a smart choice in a city known for dramatic seasonal shifts.

Most asphalt roofs in Kamloops last 10–15 years due to UV degradation and thermal cracking. Even synthetic and rubber options top out around 30–50 years with maintenance.

Interlock Metal Roofing comes with a lifetime, non-prorated warranty—so you’ll never re-roof again. The aluminum alloy resists corrosion, cracking, and fading far beyond the lifespan of most traditional materials.

Kamloops winters bring snowfall, ice buildup, and freeze-thaw cycles. These conditions can cause leaks, ice dams, and structural stress in weaker roofs. Interlock’s 4-way interlocking panels shed snow naturally and minimize ice damming, keeping your roof dry and secure all winter. Compare this to asphalt and rubber shingles, which often trap snow and can absorb water.
Not with Interlock. Unlike dark asphalt shingles that absorb heat, Interlock Metal Roofing reflects sunlight, reducing heat transfer into your home. That means a cooler attic and lower A/C bills, especially during Kamloops’ 30°C+ summer heatwaves.
Natural slate is beautiful but very heavy, expensive to install, and prone to cracking during Kamloops’ freeze-thaw cycles. Synthetic slate looks good but is still susceptible to UV degradation and thermal distortion over time. Interlock’s slate-style aluminum panels deliver the same curb appeal, without the weight, fragility, or cost—and they’ll hold up for life.
Rubber and composite shingles are often marketed as “lifetime” products, but in Kamloops, extreme summer heat and cold winters can cause premature aging. They also tend to absorb heat and may fade or warp under UV exposure. Aluminum, unlike rubber or plastic, won’t degrade in the sun or crack in the cold—making Interlock the superior long-term solution.
Steel roofs are popular but can rust over time, especially near the Thompson Rivers where morning dew and moisture are common. Aluminum is naturally rustproof, even in fluctuating temperatures and moisture-rich environments. Interlock uses high-grade, marine-quality aluminum, making it ideal for Kamloops homeowners looking for low-maintenance longevity.
Asphalt shingles generate millions of tons of landfill waste in Canada each year. Most rubber and composite products are petroleum-based and non-recyclable. Interlock roofs are made from up to 95% recycled aluminum and are 100% recyclable at the end of their lifespan—which, frankly, most homeowners will never reach. Plus, they can often be installed directly over your existing roof, reducing landfill waste from tear-offs.
Yes. Interlock Metal Roofing increases curb appeal, energy efficiency, and resale value. Many buyers are drawn to homes with low-maintenance, lifetime systems—especially in a climate like Kamloops where weather extremes are a concern. Compare that to asphalt, which often becomes a bargaining point for buyers demanding roof replacement credits.
That’s a myth. When installed correctly with solid sheathing and underlayment—like Interlock’s system—a metal roof is no noisier than any other roofing type, even during Kamloops’ rare heavy rainstorms.

The Final Takeaway for Kamloops Homeowners

In a city with long, dry summers, cold winters, and high UV exposure, roofing materials are tested year-round. Asphalt, rubber, synthetic, and even steel will eventually wear down, crack, or corrode.

Interlock Metal Roofing offers a smarter alternative:

  • Designed for extreme weather
  • Backed by a true lifetime warranty
  • Solar-ready and energy-efficient
  • Rust-proof and recyclable
  • Beautiful and low-maintenance

It’s not just a roof. It’s a long-term solution built for the unique climate and character of Kamloops, BC.

Interlock is a leader in the field of roofing companies

5/5

To whom it may concern, Interlock Industries:

I am writing to boast of my new roof, that I am l 00% satisfied with both the roof itself and the service of installation.

The installers arrived promptly, as they had planned ahead of time. Also, the materials were at the site exactly, so there were no delays; work progressed on schedule. The laborers were courteous, informative and very professional. They were on time in the morning, everyday, and they did not work late, as to be a bother in the evenings.

The roof itself looks fantastic, and I have a very secure peace of mind. With a solid and transferable 50 year guarantee, I have no doubts or worries.

Interlock is a leader in the field of roofing companies, and I am sure this company will be around for a very long time.

Thanks again, Todd.

No extra noise on a rainy day

5/5

I would like to take this time to say thank you for a job well done.

From sales, to project manager, to roofer, the team worked in a highly professional manner. The job was organized efficiently and completed in a timely manner. All materials on completion were taken away within the next day.

Michael’s work was efficient and very well done. I am extremely satisfied with the quality and workmanship of the roof. I particularly like the finishing touches on the roof edges and around the chimney’s flashing. Michael did an excellent job!

My home now has a much better cleaner profile. I am also surprised at how there is no extra noise on a rainy day – and we do have those rainy days here on the west coast. I had actually thought this may be an issue with the home being 80 years old as no extra sound proofing allowable, so am very pleased with the outcome.

Once again thank you for a job well done.

No-nonsense lifetime guarantee

5/5

Our experience with this company was exceptionally good. Their sales person, Mr. Brougham was extremely well versed in all of the products he displayed for us, demonstrating the pros and cons of each of them. He did NOT pressure us at all and allowed us to select the roof we wanted. There was a call back for a minor problem which they came out the next day and addressed and remedied the problem immediately.

The installation of the new roof was accomplished seamlessly and exactly as they described. We chose a very high-end roof as we are getting older and do not want to ever need to re-roof our home again. They provided this for us with a no-nonsense lifetime guarantee which is also transferable (goes with the home – not that we would ever leave it!) we are completely satisfied!

We would wholeheartedly recommend both the company and Mr. Brougham. Excellent experience top to bottom, beginning to end!

The install crew was punctual and professional in all phases of the contracted work

5/5

We contracted in late December for Interlock Roofing to install a new Interlocking Roof. Once we finalized the deal it took about 2 weeks to have the materials delivered and work to begin. On the first day of the project, the front of the house was stripped of the old roof material and about 1/4 of the new roof installed. We were impressed that there was very little refuse in the yard and the amount of work that was accomplished on the first day. Of course, everything can’t go right with any project, in conversing with the crew chief I did not mention that we live about 14 miles from everywhere. Also, the salesman did not inform him either.

We were unable to be here for the first day and when we did speak with the crew chief, he said that they nearly ran out of gas and did not have lunch the first day. We felt really bad about that but that set back did not affect the professionalism or diligence of the crew.

On the second day, they completed the installation of the front roof, removed the old roof on the rear and prepared the bare underlayment to weather the rain due the next day. We weathered the storm with no leaks.

Thursday brought the sun and our new roof. It looks great and the craftsmanship is excellent.

I would recommend the Interlock roof for anyone that is looking for a roof that will last a lifetime.

Thank you for being such an excellent firm

5/5

My wife and I want to express our complete satisfaction with the “Aged Copper” roof your firm installed on our “Barn-house” and gazebo. The two roofs have a high quality appearance and they enhance the looks of the property. We are looking forward to many years of satisfaction. We are now planning to re-paint the house with a color to better blend with the roof.

The work performed by your installers was outstanding. They were friendly and very professional.
They worked efficiently and energetically, and it was obvious they had the skills to do the job.

Thank you for being such an excellent firm.

The roof took thirty year off the look of the house

5/5

Dear Interlock Roofing

I have been impressed with the appearance of the slate aluminum roofs for years. So when the windstorms started lifting off my asphalt shingles and dropping them in my neighbor’s yard I knew it was time to look for a new roofing solution.

The Interlock Roofing sales representative was very informative and sold me on the advantages of their high end roofing materials. I especially liked the following benefits: the wind resistance was a big plus to me, the no maintenance feature, the
fact that the roof could be installed in the winter over the existing roof and last that I can relax knowing this will be the last roof I will have to buy for my house.

What a difference the black slate Interlock Roofing makes to the curb appeal of my 1950’s rambler house. The roof took thirty year off the look of the house and increased any future selling price.

I would be happy to recommend Interlocking Roofing to anyone interested in a high quality aluminum roof expertly installed.

High quality metal roofing installation

5/5

I want to express my appreciation for your company’s excellent response to our recent need for replacement of deteriorating closure material on our metal roof installed about four years ago. It is a pleasure to deal with people whose first priority is customer satisfaction.

I’d like to particularly thank Steven Jasper, the installer responsible for the work. He was competent, efficient and thorough. It was a large job and particularly difficult because of its height off the ground as well as the hot weather. I also want to thank Wendy Willans of your customer service department who arranged for the work effectively and promptly.

I will not hesitate to recommend your company to anyone interested in a high quality metal roofing installation by people eager to stand behind their products and workmanship.

Very truly yours,

Heavy rain, hail, strong winds, and frost. Our roof has been put to the test and passed with flying colors

5/5

It’s been about 6 weeks since our new roof was completed, and we are thrilled with the result. The whole process from start to finish was seamless and very efficient. As a salesperson myself, I was impressed with the ‘no pressure’ approach to selling us the roof and the information that was provided to us to make an informed decision on the type of roof for our home. We chose the black slate and it looks very smart and has transformed the look of our home considerably. Since the roof was installed, we have had the usual mixed bag of Washington weather – heavy rain, hail, strong winds, and frost. Our roof has been put to the test and passed with flying colors.

Frank observed the installation process and was impressed with the seamless flashing, custom-made on site, and state of the art vent coverings. Our roof looks beautiful and stands out from the others in our neighborhood. We were particularly impressed with the workmanship of Victor and Mark, the two men who installed the roof. They were punctual, fast, courteous, respectful, efficient and very professional. Our neighbors also commented on how well they worked. When the roof was complete, they cleared away all debris and even removed the unwanted satellite dish from our roof. It couldn’t have gone better.

We received all the financial documentation in a timely manner and all of the employees we have dealt with have been very knowledgeable and helpful. Our only criticism is that it would be nice to have an online payment facility for over payments. Currently the only way to do that is to mail a payment to Canada but we don’t have checks so we would have to purchase money orders and mail them as we intend to make over-payments along the way.

We would happily recommend Interlock to anyone looking for a new roof.

Kind regards,
Jennifer and Frank H.

If the roof is as good as it appears and is warranted for, the cost is justified

5/5

In less than a week since the new Interlock roof was installed on our house we have had several compliments.

It is somewhat a coincidence that the color of paint we put on the gutters and gable ends a couple of years ago is compatible with the weathered copper color of the shingles.

Most homes in our neighborhood are between twenty and thirty years of age. All have been re-roofed. Some need replacement again. They should consider Interlock.

The weather was not always the best during the job. The installers seemed to know exactly what to do and how to do it. If the roof is as good as it appears and is warranted for, the cost is justified. In comparison with anything else around we’re quite proud of it.

Sincerely,

We love the look of the roof

5/5

We are writing to thank you for the fine job that was done on our roof installation. Before we talked to your company at the fair, we were confused and indecisive on the products available. After we talked to Bill Gray at our home, we decided that Interlock was the roofing for us.

From our meeting with your representative to the finish of the installation of the roof took less than a month. That included the wait for the permission from the Homeowners Association and financing through your company.

The installation team that worked on our home was courteous, efficient, pleasant and hard working. Everything was kept neat And clean as they worked.

We love the look of the roof and can’t stop looking at it whenever we go outside. It improves the look of the home.

Thank you,

A large percentage of landfill waste is comprised of discarded roofing materials

5/5

To Whom It May Concern:

We bought our house in 2001. At that time we knew we had about 5-7 years of life left on our composition roof.

In October of 2009, my husband and I attended the Home Show held at the Kitsap County Fairgrounds and we submitted our name at the Interlock booth to get more information about metal roofs, as we had been thinking about moving in that direction to replace the roof.

About two weeks later, we met Ross Peterson. He spent about two hours educating us on roofs and all the different types of roofing materials available, how a large percentage of landfill waste is comprised of discarded roofing materials, and the range of expenses associated with the different kinds of roofs available to homeowners. He was polite, patient, and very knowledgeable.

We went into the meeting hoping that the cost of a metal roof would somehow match up with the amount of money we felt we had available to put a new roof on our house. Overall, we determined that the work being done and the length of time we could expect the roof to last would far outweigh the expense in the long run. Especially since a metal roof can last 50 years, but you can expect to put a composition roof on several times in that time-frame.

Our materials were delivered in early December and a few days later we met the work crew. They were friendly, considerate, and seemed well trained to complete the job. Unfortunately, we started having extreme weather conditions, like deep freezes one week and heavy rains the following week. Both of those situations caused the job to be delayed, both due to the safety of the crew and to keep the roof conditions as ideal as possible.

We are now almost 3 months post install and are quite happy with the end result. We are pleased with our color choice and plan to paint our house this summer with a coordinating color to complement the roof.

Thank you Interlock!

Sincerely,
Cindy & Harry Kleinfelter

There were no surprises

5/5

We just wanted to let you know how thoroughly-pleased we are with our new Interlock Roof. It is absolutely beautiful and we have had a lot of people stopping as they walk or drive by to admire how nice it looks.

Everything progressed on the job exactly as you had shared with us when we signed the contract. There were no surprises. From the beginning when we got the call to set up a start date, to the final clean up and retrieval of the waste bin everything was handled so professionally. Viktor and Alex were a dream to work with-so-pleasant and each day everything was left so tidy that it would have been hard for guests to tell that we were in the middle of a re-roofing job.

We will highly recommend your product and doing business with such a professional and obviously well run company.
