Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Strathcona County, Alberta
| Spec / Rating | Climate / Risk Factor + What It Solves |
|---|---|
| Wind resistance: 120+ mph (193+ kph) | Extreme wind, hurricanes, storm uplift: full interlocking attachment helps prevent blow-offs, edge lifting, and panel loss in high-gust events. |
| Fire rating: Class A (with proper assembly) | Wildfire, embers, radiant heat, chimney sparks: non-combustible roof assembly provides the highest residential fire protection rating. |

What our customers are saying:
Our Interlock roof was installed in 2014. We have had no problems or issues. Due to freeze / thaw cycles this winter we had some ice slide off our roof and damage a gooseneck vent (from a bathroom ceiling fan). Janer and his team replaced the vent and installed additional ice breaks to prevent future issues. Very happy with their work! **Positive: **Responsiveness, Punctuality, Quality, Professionalism, Value **Services: **Roof repair for storm & wind damage
We had our roof installed back in August of 2005. We weren’t ready at the time for a new roof, but we started to look into a products that would perk up our home and were environmentally friendly. Our daughter is an Environmental Scientist and it was important to us to select a product that reflected a “good for the environment” priority. The Interlock roof is made from aluminum and was able to be installed right over our existing roof, saving the need to dump it in the landfill. The other products available did not satisfy us and we ended up choosing Interlock, even with the higher price point. The roof still looks like it did when it was first installed. There has been no change in colour, no fading and there have been no issues. Wind and " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">Hail were and continue to be a concern for us but thus far, with the high winds and multiple hailstorms, we have had no issue or damage. A few months ago we decided to install solar panels. There was a lot of discussion if the solar panels could be installed on a metal roof so we were very pleased to learn that it could be done. We’d encourage anyone looking to install solar panels and/ or wanting a roof that a permanent choice, to contact Interlock. We are sure that had we gone with a lower cost product we would have had to replace it again. 15 years ago we made the decision to buy a roof that would never need to be replaced and we got one.

Thank you Interlock. We decided to go with Interlock Aluminum Shingles this year. I did a lot of investigating and found that metal roofing is clearly the way to go. I ended up choosing Interlock Roofing and I’m glad I did because it was such a positive experience. They gave me a timeline and stuck to it. The crew arrived on time and they were polite and worked very hard to complete the job in just two days. The foreman came out on day one to check on everything. As the process was coming to completion I had many neighbors stop by and ask about the product and were very impressed. Our goal was to get a great quality product that will last a long time and the fact that it looks incredible simply adds to the value of the house. We were very pleased with the entire experience and would recommend this company and this product to anyone who asks.
Dear Neil, We are very pleased with our choice of environmentally conscious new shingles and they look great! It was amazing to think that this was accomplished in just a little more than 24 hours from start to finish. The installers were courteous and respectful of our belongings, letting us know to move one of our cars to ensure that there was no risk of debris falling into it. I would certainly recommend Interlock to any of my friends and neighbours, and I look forward to enjoying knowing that our roof is gorgeous and ready to handle any weather!
I’ve had my interlock roof for 14 yrs and have had no issues with it until this last winter. We had heavier than normal snow and a lot of freeze thaw conditions. Several of the snow deflectors were pushed forward and lifted some of the roof. I emailed Dave and Tyler and repairs were made quickly . You can’t tell there was any concerns at all.
Yorman and his crew were very pleasant to deal with. There were no issues—just great communication and professional workmanship throughout the project. The crew cleaned up the job site at the end of each workday. I would recommend Interlock to anyone looking to add value to their property.
It was a great crew. Happy, friendly guys. Showed up when they said and worked hard until it was done. It looks great and the clean-up left things looking better than before. Five stars for the crew. Let's hope the product lives up to their standard.
Lisandro and Kevin arrived promptly after customer service called to let me know a service team was on their way. They set up quickly and fixed our vent efficiently. Very friendly and professional. They added extra snow guards to hopefully prevent any further issues as well. Thank you!
After walking through the Edmonton Home Show, it was very overwhelming trying to figure out which vender I needed for my roof. After speaking with Tyler, the extensive knowledge and professionalism he showed has really enticed us to consider a metal roof! I look forward to our future conversations!
We just had Interlock Roofing put on a new black metal roof that looks stunning. It is called a cool roof and we got to experience this first hand during the heat wave. After the roof was installed, we noticed that the house was significantly cooler to the point that we were able to reduce the AC, saving us money. Although costly, we definitely feel it was worth the money because we have piece of mind that we will not have to worry about roofing again.
We had Interlock replace our old shingles in October 2023. Their installation crew was professional and knowledgeable. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to replace their roofing system. We are looking forward to never having to replace our roof again. The roof looks absolutely fantastic and has aesthetically transformed our home. Thank you Interlock and your support staff for helping us make this happen so easily.

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Strathcona County
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Strathcona County, Alberta. 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 Strathcona County.
How does a metal roof handle Strathcona County's annual snowfall and freeze-thaw cycles?
Metal roofs shed snow and ice far more effectively than asphalt because aluminum's smooth surface prevents snow from bonding; the continuous freeze-thaw cycling here—about 88 days per year—would crack and curl traditional shingles, but aluminum expands and contracts uniformly without degradation. With about 90 cm of snow annually, the lightweight design (Slate at 0.41 lb/sq ft) means no structural reinforcement needed, and the four-way interlocking panels stay sealed even as temperature swings occur. Snow guards are available if you want controlled shedding.
Why does aluminum outperform other roofing materials through Alberta's freeze-thaw winters?
Aluminum has no iron content, so it cannot rust when water seeps into cracks during freeze-thaw cycles—the oxide layer that forms actually self-heals when scratched. With roughly 88 freeze-thaw days annually in Strathcona County, wood shingles split and curl, asphalt becomes brittle, and steel corrodes, but aluminum maintains structural integrity indefinitely. The Alunar 70% PVDF coating (warranted 30 years) protects the substrate further, ensuring your roof survives decades of temperature swings without the maintenance burden those materials demand.
Can a metal roof withstand Strathcona County's wind gusts and storms?
Yes—the four-way interlocking aluminum panels are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph (193 km/h), well above the typical gusts of about 103 km/h recorded here. The interlocking design means each panel locks to its neighbors in all directions, creating a unified system that doesn't separate or peel under stress. This exceeds the performance of asphalt or wood, which can lift in high winds. The ICC-ES evaluation (ESR-1790) confirms code compliance for the region, and the Guardian Warranty covers wind damage when installed to specification.
Does an Interlock metal roof get better insurance rates after hail damage?
Metal roofing can qualify for homeowner insurance discounts due to its durability, though specific rates depend on your insurer and policy. Interlock carries a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the warranty covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. With about 3159 annual sunshine hours, hail isn't as frequent in Strathcona County as in some regions, but when it occurs, aluminum's non-denting Class 4 performance and impact resistance outlast asphalt or wood, reducing claim frequency and demonstrating value to insurers.
Will a metal roof rust in Alberta's climate?
No—aluminum contains no iron, so it cannot rust. The alloy (3105-H24 / 3003-H24 per ASTM B209) forms a protective oxide layer that self-heals when scratched, a fundamental advantage over steel roofing. Even with about 431 mm of annual rainfall and significant temperature swings, the Alunar 70% PVDF finish (applied to both sides) provides an extra 30-year warranty against chalking and fading. This dual protection means zero rust stains, no structural degradation from corrosion, and no emergency repairs from weather-driven failures—a stark contrast to steel, which requires ongoing maintenance.
Do I need to reinforce my roof structure for a metal roof?
No structural reinforcement is needed because Interlock's aluminum panels weigh remarkably little—the Mediterranean Tile profile is about 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile, and even the Shake installs at roughly 0.58 lb/sq ft. In Strathcona County, where about 90 cm of snow falls annually, this light weight is a real advantage: your home's framing bears less load year-round, reducing strain and allowing the roof to be installed directly over most existing roofs without costly reinforcement. Asphalt and wood shingles are heavier and create more cumulative stress on aging structures.
Can a metal roof reduce cooling costs in the Edmonton summer season?
energy-efficient Interlock colors reflect rather than absorb solar heat, with thermal emissivity up to 0.84 and solar reflectance reaching 0.55 on Aged Copper Penny. Even though Strathcona County averages only about 3159 annual sunshine hours (less than sunnier regions), reflective coatings reduce the heat that conventional asphalt absorbs and transfers into living spaces during warm months. The Cool Roof Rating Council certification confirms measurable performance. Combined with the material's low mass, you'll see modest but real cooling savings, and the winter benefit is unchanged—your attic stays warm or cold as needed, reducing HVAC cycling.
How much maintenance does an Interlock metal roof really require?
Virtually none compared to asphalt, wood, or tile. Asphalt requires regular inspection for rot and curl, wood splits and requires treatment, and tile cracks and needs repointing; metal simply sheds debris with snow and rain (about 431 mm annually). Gutters may collect some leaf matter, but the roof itself is CALGreen-verified for reduced maintenance—no annual inspections, sealant reapplication, or replacement shingles needed. The Alunar coating is inert and self-protecting, so your maintenance calendar shrinks dramatically. Over a 50-year ownership span, that's hundreds of hours and thousands in labor savings.
Is a metal roof worth the upfront cost compared to asphalt over the roof's lifetime?
Yes—a metal roof is the last roof you'll buy. Asphalt lasts 15–20 years and requires tear-off and landfill disposal multiple times in a 50-year span; Interlock carries a lifetime limited, non-prorated warranty for the original owner, plus a one-time 50-year transferable term for the next owner. Factor in asphalt tear-off labor, disposal fees, and repeated installations over decades, and metal's higher initial cost vanishes. The Guardian Warranty covers rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and impact loss—eliminating surprise failures. Current promotion: interest-free payments for 3 months and save at least $2499 on installation—making the math even clearer.
