Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Floradale, Ontario
| 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. |
| Hail resistance: UL 2218 Class 4 | Hail and impact debris: highest impact classification; resists cracking, splitting, and surface loss common with asphalt under hail strikes. |
| Snow & ice performance: interlocking, shedding profile | Heavy snow, freeze-thaw, ice dams: smooth aluminum sheds snow efficiently and the interlocking design helps block water intrusion when melt-refreeze cycles occur. (Final snow-load capacity depends on roof structure and local code.) |
| Corrosion resistance: aluminum (won’t rust) | Salt air, coastal humidity, wet climates: aluminum naturally resists rust and corrosion, reducing long-term failure risk in marine or high-moisture environments. |
| Heat / UV durability: baked-on coating system | High heat, intense sun, thermal cycling: coatings resist UV breakdown and temperature-swing fatigue, slowing fading and surface degradation. |
| Moss / algae resistance: smooth coated surface | Wet shade, organic growth: low-porosity metal surface gives moss/algae less to grip, reducing staining and maintenance. |
| Material: heavy-gauge aluminum roof profiles (Slate / Shake / Shingle / Tile / Standing Seam) | All-season structural stability: lightweight, dent-resistant metal system stays stable through large hot-cold swings and severe weather. |
| Expected lifespan: 50+ years | Long-term durability across climates: avoids re-roof cycles typical of shorter-life materials, even in high-stress environments. |
| Warranty: Lifetime-Limited, non-prorated + 50-year transferable | Lifetime protection + resale value: guarantees long-term material confidence and transfers to future owners. |

What our customers are saying:
Ken was right on time Nice and done in a short time
Great product! Have put it on 2 of our houses. Would highly recommend it.
We had our Interlock Metal Roof installed in 2011 and recently experienced some damage to the flashing. I called and spoke with Cheri, the Office and Service Department Administrator, who promptly scheduled Brad to assess the issue at the next available time. Despite one of the coldest winter days, Brad repaired the flashing efficiently and at no charge. I may be biased, but every time I pull into our driveway, I truly believe we have the best roof on our street. I would highly recommend Interlock Metal Roofing (Ontario) Ltd.
These folks are fantastic! From our initial meeting with John to installation by Moses and David they have been great. The roof looks great and their attention to detail was impressive. I thought I had an issue with a trim piece coming loose and called. Within a day the service fellow was here and it turns out the trim came from a skylight...nothing to do with the roof. They fixed it anyway. Spectacular product and even better service! Services Roof installation
From our initial consultation at our home with Carter and Brian (VP) to the installation we couldn’t be happier. When Brian gave us his personal cell phone number that did it for me. If the VP of a company gives you his personal cell phone number, that speaks volumes to the confidence he has in his products. Carter came back a second time to put our minds at ease with our colour selection. Our installation crew was amazing! Maurice and Brian are top-notch gentlemen who did an amazing job. Having a pool, I was concerned about nails and other debris ending up in it. Well, there was absolutely nothing in my pool. You could tell they took pride in the work they did because they took pictures of themselves in front of our home when it was complete. They seemed proud of the job they did. Maurice kept saying it has to be done right the first time because they don’t want to come back (although they are always welcome to stop by for a visit if they are in the area). We were initially concerned that the roof might be louder when it rains, but it’s actually quieter. Our daughter used to wake up through the night when it rained but now she sleeps right through. It could be because they were able to go right over the existing asphalt shingles which also reduces landfill waste. I never thought I would get compliments on a roof. People " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">walk by and say it looks great. When I pull up to my home I say wow that roof looks good! It’s a premium roof at a premium price, but one shot and you are done.
My next door neighbour had his installed prior to us and we decided to research metal roofing far and wide. We had to do it since our asphalt roofing was terrible and we were part of a class action lawsuit that was going very slowly. We decided on Interlock and are totally pleased with the quality, timing, workmanship, and attention to details of the company and its friendly installers. Although we had a few minor issues deciding on the installation preparation and with the post-installation within the first 6 months, the Interlock staff member was most responsive and remedied the issues. Being a real estate Broker, I know this has given us an ROI much higher than with a standard roof shingle installation - and gives us a lifetime of no worries. We decided to add a larger eaves and drainage system as well as eaves screens b/c of the nature of the roof. Even our mail delivery person cited that the roof "popped" when he came down the street. I have also recommended Interlock to others. Thanks go to the team approach on this renovation. Positive: Responsiveness, Punctuality, Quality, Professionalism Services: Roof installation, Skylight installation
So far so good. The product is as described during the sales demonstration and is living up to what was promised. Two years into its life and it looks like brand new. We did however have to install more snow blockers to slow down the snow sliding off the roof. Be sure to have sufficient snow stoppers when you have your roof installed. The roof looks great.
Really impressed with the customer service of this company.
Brad was awesome friendly and professional. The snow guards look great
Excellent from start to finish! Our roof consultant, Bob was very thorough and very knowledgeable which gave us added confidence that we had made the right decision after all our research. The installer, Jeremy did an Excellent job of making sure we were happy with the end product. Jeremy takes great pride in his work and holds himself to a very high standard for his workmanship. It was great to see Bob during the installation and after the job was finished, making sure we were happy with the process and the end result. Excellent quality product and installation. The roof looks amazing!! Highly recommend Intetlock roof to any one looking for a superior quality roof and excellent follow up service.
Installation of our roof was flawless in 2018 but a tree limb that fell during a wind storm recently required a significant portion of our roof to be replaced. Again fully satisfied with their responsiveness, thoroughness and their willingness to work with other contractors and our insurance company Positive: Responsiveness, Punctuality, Quality, Professionalism Services: Roof installation, Roof repair for storm & wind damag

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Floradale
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Floradale, Ontario. 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 Floradale.
How does a metal roof handle Floradale's snow and ice buildup?
Metal roofs shed snow more effectively than asphalt because the smooth, slippery surface doesn't grip ice the way granules do. Floradale gets about 107 cm of snow yearly, and freeze-thaw cycles occur roughly 88 days per year—conditions that crack and curl asphalt but leave aluminum unaffected. The four-way interlocking panels bond tightly, so water doesn't migrate under the panels during thaw cycles. Optional snow guards prevent large avalanche-style dumps if that's a concern for walkways below.
Will freeze-thaw damage an aluminum metal roof over time?
No. Aluminum doesn't absorb moisture, so it won't crack or curl like asphalt does through repeated freeze-thaw. With 88 freeze-thaw days annually and an average of 779 mm rain per year in Floradale, the metal panels simply expand and contract without degradation. The material itself is stable; the interlocking seams stay watertight because water is shed off the smooth surface, not trapped in granules where it can freeze and expand.
Can a metal roof handle Floradale's wind gusts?
Yes—Interlock's four-way interlocking panels are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph (193 km/h) when installed to specification. Floradale's typical wind gusts reach about 115 km/h, putting you well within the rated envelope. The four-way interlock means each panel locks on all sides to its neighbors, distributing wind load across the entire roof system rather than relying on fasteners alone. That's why the warranty covers the wind resistance directly.
Why doesn't aluminum metal roofing rust like steel does?
Aluminum contains no iron, so it cannot rust chemically. Instead, it forms a natural oxide layer that protects the base metal—and if that layer is scratched, it self-heals by re-oxidizing. The Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon finish adds another 30-year warranted barrier against chalking and fading. This dual protection matters in Floradale where moisture is constant (779 mm rain plus 107 cm snow), because the roof doesn't degrade from salt spray, wet freeze-thaw cycles, or long wet seasons the way ferrous metals do.
What's the hail rating on Interlock metal roofing, and could it lower my insurance?
Interlock panels achieve UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the warranty even covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. That class rating often qualifies homeowners for insurance discounts because Class 4 roofs represent the lowest claims risk. Floradale's weather pattern includes hail events, so documenting that Class 4 rating when you file your homeowner's insurance claim is straightforward and may reduce your premium.
Do I need to reinforce my home's structure for a metal roof?
No structural reinforcement is needed. Interlock's aluminum panels weigh roughly 0.41 lb/sq ft for the Shingle profile and about 0.59 lb/sq ft for the Tile—meaning the Tile profile is approximately 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile. Because they're so light, Interlock installs directly over most existing roofs without adding strain. Your existing framing was already built to handle a roof; the metal panels simply replace your current covering with something that lasts longer and weighs less.
Will a metal roof help lower cooling costs in summer?
Yes, if you choose an energy-efficient color. Those colors have thermal emissivity of 0.84 and initial solar reflectance up to 0.55 (like Aged Copper Penny), reflecting heat that asphalt absorbs and radiates into your attic. Although Floradale averages 2970 sunshine hours annually—moderate for Ontario—every bit of reflected heat reduces cooling load. The Cool Roof Rating Council certifies these reflectance values, so your savings are measurable, not theoretical. Metal's thermal performance compounds over a 50-year lifespan.
Is metal roofing worth the upfront cost compared to asphalt shingles?
Over the roof's full life, yes. Asphalt typically lasts 15–20 years; you'll tear it off and replace it at least twice before Interlock's lifetime limited warranty expires for you. That's multiple tear-offs, labor, and landfill tipping fees—plus disposal of all that asphalt waste. Interlock's Guardian Warranty covers material for the original owner's lifetime and transfers 50 years to the next owner, making this the last roof you buy. Current regional pricing includes interest-free payments for 3 months and savings of at least $2499 on installation.
What exactly does Interlock's lifetime warranty cover?
The Guardian Warranty is a lifetime limited, non-prorated material warranty for the original owner, covering rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance—basically everything structural. It transfers once to the next owner for 50 years from completion. No other roof covering offers non-prorated lifetime coverage; asphalt degrades in 15 years, and even high-end tiles can split in Floradale's 88 annual freeze-thaw cycles. This warranty reflects the aluminum's actual durability: Interlock has been manufacturing these panels since 1998.
Who installs Interlock metal roofing in Floradale, and what's their experience?
Interlock Metal Roofing (Ontario) Ltd. serves the Floradale area and has been installing these roofs regionally since 1998—the same year Interlock began manufacturing. That's 26 years of hands-on installation experience with the exact panels, in the exact climate, on homes just like yours. They understand Floradale's freeze-thaw cycling, snow load, and wind patterns because they've been protecting homes through them. Having the manufacturer's own installer handle your project means the warranty is backed by the people who know the product inside and out.
