Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Stickney, Illinois
| 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:
Our roof was completed last month, and I cannot tell you how many compliments we have already received. We feel that this is one investment in our house that will really pay off because, with the Interlock roof, there is no worry about how long it is going to last. The quality of this product and the professional way in which it was installed proves that this is a company that cares about its customers. We have seen other homes in our area getting new roofs and dreaded the mess that came with this type of work. One home even had what we called “the loan roofer” doing the job. One man did not only to tear down of the roof but the installation of a new roof. And this was in poor weather when it was vital to get that roof on quickly. But with Interlock, we had at least 5 to 6 men on the job daily, working long hours. Our property was covered so that nothing got damaged during the teardown and every scrap was picked up and removed by the workers. We highly recommend your company and are very satisfied with the professional manner of your employees. With our Interlock roof, we have the security of knowing that this product is completely guaranteed.
Not only was the sales process easy, the installation guys were very respectful of my neighbors and my comfort while they were working. Now that it’s done I absolutely love the roof. It’s already made a huge difference in my electric use for cooling the house!
I think the product will speak for itself. Obviously the cost is higher than the price for asphalt. I thought the crew did a great job and I will recommend to anyone who inquires Communication could have been better. Coordination between my general contractor and an install supervisor would have made things smoother
They could improve by being prepared with their permit before starting the job.
The end of the project. No one told me when the project was going to be finished. It just so happened I came home from work early that day; but, I had to leave before the workers were to finish. The on-site manager told me I had to sign off on the work and give him the check. Previously, I had been told that I would not have to sign anything or submit final payment until I had an opportunity to inspect the finished work. Big difference between what I was told would happen and what actually happened.
The Interlock team was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Undertaking the re-roof of a 108-year-old home is a major process and investment. After speaking to many other roofers, we realized that Interlock offered the best value proposition, and we felt like they were going to be able to deliver on what they promised. Our salesperson, John Mondschean displayed his extensive experience in roofing by taking the time to listen to our goals, preferences and concerns, offering solutions and working with us to achieve the desired outcome. John was responsive to every request and stuck with us even after the contract was signed. We appreciated that he was always available to answer questions, give us updates and even bring color samples over one afternoon for us to double-check our selection. John embodies integrity and service. We were aware that due to current market conditions, we might have to wait a while for our materials to be delivered; however, Interlock exceeded our expectations and was able to get the materials to us a touch earlier than promised and started the installation within three days after delivery. The day the materials were delivered, we met Jesse, the lead installer who we worked with throughout the project. Jesse was awesome in explaining all the steps to the re-roof and answering our questions along the way. He took lots of pictures for us and explained how he would address our specific concerns like adding ventilation, condition of the chimney, placement of snow guards and ensuring that the construction didn’t negatively impact our neighbors. It was clear that Jesse has been installing Interlock roofing for a long time and is a true craftsman who takes pride in the quality of his work. Jesse and his crew went above and beyond to ensure that our neighbors landscaping, A/C units and other areas were properly protected. They also ensured that our property was well protected throughout, cleaned up every day and that they left the job site in great condition once the work was finished. We give the crew excellent ratings for the overall job they did on our new roof. We are very happy with the new roof and have recommended Interlock Roofing to several of our friends and neighbors. It is awesome to have everyone on the block comment on how nice the new roof looks. It really has improved our home’s durability, value and curb appeal. We would work with John, Jesse and the entire team again! They delivered on what they promised!

Dear John, I wish I had known about the Interlock Roofing System before I put the last new roof on twenty years ago. If I had, I would not have had to replace it again now. At least now I won’t need to worry about the roof ever again because of the lifetime limited warranty with its 50-year transferable and non-prorated features. When I first suggested to my wife that we consider a metal roof, she was concerned about the noise level during storms. This concern disappeared after the first storm as the noise level was much less than before the metal roof was installed. Speaking of installation, we were very happy with the way your installation crew did their job. They were careful with our landscaping and cleaned up each day and when they finished and left, the only sign of their having been there was the new roof itself. The new Interlock roof looks great, and we have been complimented on it by many neighbors as well as people passing by. Our home insurance company was also happy with the new roof and its Class 4 hail-impact-resistant rating, which will give us a discount on the insurance premium. We are very satisfied with the entire process of getting a new roof installed. From the initial discussion with the sales representative, the installation crew, and the final results, there were no surprises. We will also be very happy twenty years from now when we don’t have to put another roof on the house.
We signed a contract with John yesterday.
I like your work, and would like to talk to you about more projects. Also I'm part of a fund raiser that I would like to talk to you about sponsoring. Please contact me, or visit www.silverphoenix.net. We're trying to show that police are men and women like us.
Communication was definitely lacking - and I'm paying a lot for it.

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Stickney
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Stickney, Illinois. 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 Stickney.
How does a metal roof handle Stickney's snow load and ice dams?
Aluminum's smooth, interlocked four-way panel design sheds snow and ice far more effectively than asphalt, which traps moisture and accelerates ice dam formation during Stickney's typical 73 cm annual snowfall and 82 freeze-thaw cycles. The metal surface itself never absorbs water, so ice builds up less aggressively, and when it does shift, it slides cleanly away without the rot risk that comes with wood or asphalt underlayment. Snow guards are available if you want to control shedding on lower-slope sections.
Will freeze-thaw cycling crack or damage an aluminum metal roof?
No. The 3105-H24 aluminum alloy used in Interlock panels is engineered to withstand repeated freeze-thaw stress without cracking, splitting, or losing structural integrity. With about 82 freeze-thaw days annually in Stickney and mean temperatures near 10.5°C, your roof experiences constant expansion and contraction, but aluminum's ductility absorbs that movement—unlike slate, ceramic, or asphalt, which develop stress fractures over time. The four-way interlocking design also distributes thermal loads evenly across panels.
Can an aluminum roof rust in Stickney's climate?
Aluminum cannot rust because it contains no iron; instead, it develops a self-healing oxide layer that protects the metal beneath. In Stickney's humid Cook County environment with nearly 1000 mm of annual rainfall, this oxide layer continuously repairs itself when scratched or exposed, unlike steel roofs, which require rust-inhibiting paint and fail when that coating cracks. The Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon finish, warranted 30 years against corrosion, adds a second barrier—making aluminum the only metal roofing material that improves with age in wet climates.
Can a metal roof survive Stickney's wind and gusts?
Yes—Interlock metal roofs are warranted to withstand wind speeds up to 120 mph, which far exceeds Stickney's recorded gust speeds near 97 km/h. The four-way interlocking panel system locks each sheet to its neighbors horizontally and vertically, so wind cannot peel edges or lift sections; the system distributes lateral forces across the entire roof plane rather than concentrating stress at fastener points. This design, validated by ICC-ES ESR-1790, means your roof will stand firm through any weather Cook County produces.
Does an aluminum metal roof hold up to hail, and can I get insurance discounts?
Interlock metal roofs carry the highest hail rating available: UL 2218 Class 4 impact resistance, which means the roof withstands strikes from 1.5-inch hailstones without perforation—a benefit explicitly covered in the Guardian Warranty. Many insurers offer premium reductions (5–15%) for Class 4 rated roofs because they do not generate claims; contact your agent to confirm your specific carrier's discount. In Stickney's continental climate, hail risk is real enough that this rating translates directly into lower premiums over a 30+ year roof lifespan.
Is an aluminum metal roof a good value compared to asphalt shingles over time?
A metal roof costs 2–3 times more upfront but lasts 2–3 times longer, cutting your per-year material cost to roughly one-third of asphalt's. Asphalt shingles fail in 15–25 years in climates like Stickney's with 82 annual freeze-thaw days and regular rain (993 mm yearly), forcing a landfill tear-off and reinstall. Metal roofs eliminate that cycle; the Guardian Warranty is lifetime limited for the original owner and transferable 50 years to the next, so you buy once. Over 50 years, the total cost—material plus labor for one install versus two or three—favors metal by a substantial margin.
How long does installation take, and can it go over my existing roof?
Installation typically takes 2–5 days depending on roof size and complexity. Yes, Interlock metal roofing can install directly over most existing asphalt or wood shakes because the panels weigh only 0.41–0.59 lb/sq ft—about 96% lighter than slate or tile—so no structural reinforcement is required. Most homes in Stickney can avoid a costly tear-off, which saves weeks of disruption and eliminates landfill waste. Interlock Metal Roofing, your local installer since 2001, assesses your specific roof structure during a free inspection to confirm the best approach.
How much maintenance does a metal roof need compared to asphalt or wood?
Metal roofs require virtually no maintenance beyond occasional gutter cleaning; the aluminum panels do not split, curl, crack, rot, or lose granules like asphalt or wood. Heavy rainfall (993 mm annually in Stickney) simply runs off a smooth metal surface without pooling or degrading the material. Asphalt shingles degrade fastest in freeze-thaw climates, losing functionality within 15–20 years; wood shakes split and invite moss growth in humid conditions. The Alunar coating, warranted 30 years against fading and chalking, keeps your roof looking fresh—not because of what you do, but because of what the material does for itself.
Can an aluminum metal roof reduce cooling costs in summer?
energy-efficient Interlock colors reflect solar heat with initial reflectance up to 0.55 and thermal emissivity of 0.84, cooling your roof surface significantly on clear days. While Stickney receives about 3051 sunshine hours yearly, summer cooling gains depend on your air-conditioning load and attic ventilation; the real benefit is preventing heat absorption that asphalt encourages. Combined with the metal's rapid heat dissipation (no thermal mass), reflective coatings lower the temperature beneath your attic, reducing HVAC runtime. Over decades, even a 5–10% reduction in cooling energy adds up to real savings.
Is an aluminum metal roof more environmentally responsible than asphalt?
Aluminum is approximately 95% recyclable; when a metal roof reaches end-of-life (which takes 50+ years), it returns to the smelter as raw material, infinitely reusable. Asphalt shingles, by contrast, tear off every 15–25 years and end up in landfills by the tens of millions of tons annually because the tar and stone are difficult to recycle. Stickney's climate accelerates asphalt failure due to 82 freeze-thaw cycles yearly, making the landfill problem worse. Choosing metal breaks that waste cycle and aligns with CALGreen sustainability standards—verified in Interlock's ICC-ES ESR-1790 evaluation—by eliminating repeated tear-offs over your home's lifetime.
Is a metal roof a good choice for Stickney’s climate?
Yes. Stickney averages about 73 cm of snow, 993 mm of rain, roughly 82 freeze–thaw days a year, with peak wind gusts near 97 km/h. Interlock® aluminum roofing is wind-rated to 193+ km/h (120 mph), UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated and Class A fire-rated, and its four-way interlocking panels shed snow and resist ice dams and freeze–thaw cracking — all backed by a lifetime limited, transferable warranty.
