Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Babylon, New York
| 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:
I am very disgusted with what happen in terms of what the salesperson told me I was going to get. My neighbor has the same roof and said that he had a good job Interlock was over sold and under delivered in terms of what they promised. I think they could have improved on customer service, follow up, letting the customer know when the start dates change, and the installers should be more prideful in their work. I called back several times about when they were going to start the work. I was told by the contractor that my problems would be forward to the office but no one in the office knew about my problems. I know foresee that I will have issues down the road because it was not put on properly. I think they should do it right the first time and do exactly what they say they will do. Some of my concerns and issues are based on what I have gone through. I don't want anyone else to go through this. I feel that there might be some customers who don't speak up and will just let things slide by and that isn't right. The owner doesn't know what the people are costing his company by the lack of workmanship and quality of work and customer service. When people get this kind of service they will never use that company again. I told Jennifer that they gave me a Mercedes roof but had installers for Ikea install it. My neighbor feels bad for recommending them to me.I work at home and I am most of the time. The last day they completed the job no one told me that it was going to be the last day. I was two hours away when I got the call that it was the last day and they were done and I needed to sign paperwork. He wanted me to walk around the property to look at the work but by the time I got home the sun had already set and I couldn't see anything. I refused to sign off on the work.
I wasted 4 months of my time thinking i will have a beautiful metal roof just to learn that interlock will not be able to do it after all
Interlock Roofing could have improved their communication.
I would love to do it, but I can't justify spending that much money. I love the product, but I'd have to win some money to afford it. I like the sales pitch, and the salesman, but it cost too much. They have a unique product, and the design is good.
We are writing to thank your company for the wonderful new roof installation that we have. It is refreshing in today's business world to be able to have a company say and do exactly what is expected of them. Your sales representative, Robert Allen, was very knowledgeable and informative about the product and the installation of it. He was not an aggressive salesman, which we appreciated. The installers were the BEST! Dmitry, Leonid and Danny were the hardest working men we have ever had work on anything that we have ever had done at our house. They worked every moment that they were here, and the most severe conditions. The job was finished in a timely manor. We definitely will recommend your company to our friends.
I’m not sure who to best direct this letter of appreciation to but I’m assuming it will be shared with Interlock officials. As briefly mentioned in an email to you we are thrilled with everything. From our initial deliberations in choosing Interlock to the completion of the project we have been impressed. We have completed many remodeling projects in our home. Replacing a roof certainly would be considered major. To know that we will not need to worry about replacing it is very comforting, not to mention the impressive appearance and worth it has added to our home and neighborhood. We would be remiss if we didn’t mention the extraordinary work and work habits of Nazar. Committed, exacting, attention to detail, particular are words that immediately come to mind. His knowledge and work ethic are off the scale – long work days, mindful of what needs doing next (particularly with vagaries of spring weather) are noteworthy. He’s a gem you can absolutely depend on. We await our first major nasty weather event to put this all to test – one that we were very confident about. Thank you once again. It is reassuring to know we will benefit so nicely from the superior workmanship and quality of the roofing products.
My wife and I wanted you to know that we are very pleased with the new Interlock shingle roof recently installed on our twenty year old home. The color matches the rest of our home and the shingles look tremendous. While we knew we needed a new roof and we we looked at a number of different options and contractors, we believed that selecting your company was without a doubt a winner in every respect. We became aware of your product through the website of the ">Metal Roofing Alliance that led us to your company's own web page. Subsequently, we met with Mr. Robert Allen, Regional Marketing Coordinator of New York's Best Roof, Inc., who fully addressed all of our questions and was readily available throughout the process. Installation was also handled in a very professional manner, and we could not ask for better assistance from either Mr. Allen or the installation crew of New York's Best Roof, Inc. We look forward to many happy years under the security of our new aluminum shingle roof, and would gladly recommend your product and the team from New York's Best Roof, Inc. to anyone. We are also very pleased with the energy savings, maintenance free characteristics and environmentally friendly aspects of our new ">aluminum roof.
To: Interlock / New York's Best Roof My husband and I wanted to write to you to let you know how pleased we are with our entire experience working with Interlock. We now have a beautiful new roof and the process was totally professional and first rate. We first learned about Interlock from information received in the mail. However Mr. Robert Allen, our sales coordinator, gave a very thorough, knowledgeable presentation of the roofing product, answering our questions, showing samples and leaving us with written materials we could look over at our leisure. Mr. Allen was always a phone call away to answer our questions, returning our calls if not the same day certainly with a 24-hour period. Once we decided to purchase an Interlock roof, the time frame spelled out in the contract was adhered to. Financing was available and Mr. Patrick Doyle worked very diligently to get us the best rate of interest available to us. Whatever concerns we had were addressed and the paperwork was simple and straightforward. The installment crew was professional, courteous and hardworking. Our roof was done in 2 1/2 days and clean-up was always done at the end of each day. The crew always spoke with my husband in a polite, unobtrusive manner and did whatever it took to make the installation as easy as possible. Now not only do we have a great looking roof with a 50-year " title="warranty" data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">warranty, we also bought a great product. The roofing itself creates minimal waste and is recyclable. It reflects the sun in the summer so our air conditioning works more efficiently. In the winter we no longer have to snow rake the roof, the snow melts off automatically. Our house now seems quieter, even our 14 year old son remarked he didn't know it was raining until the rain hit the windows. Our new roof gives our house a more finished look and according to our tax expert, ">metal roofs are tax-deductible! My husband and I can not only say enough positive things about interlock. We would highly recommend their product and company to anyone considering a new roof. Drive by and see the finished product!

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Babylon
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Babylon, New York. 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 Babylon.
Will a metal roof handle Babylon's freeze-thaw cycles without damage?
Yes — aluminum's oxide layer self-heals when scratched, so it withstands freeze-thaw cycling without the cracking or splitting that affects asphalt and wood. Babylon experiences about 58 freeze-thaw days per year, plus roughly 55 cm of snow, creating conditions where traditional materials expand and contract. Interlock's 3105-H24 aluminum alloy and dual-sided Alunar coating (warranted 30 years) won't degrade from repeated moisture absorption and ice formation. The four-way interlocking design sheds water immediately, preventing ice damming at the most vulnerable stress points.
How does Interlock handle heavy snow loads and ice in my area?
Interlock's lightweight aluminum panels (Shingle at 0.41 lb/sq ft) distribute snow weight across your existing structure without reinforcement, while the four-way interlocking seams prevent snow infiltration. Babylon receives about 55 cm of snow annually, and the system is designed to shed it efficiently. Optional snow guards are available if you want controlled release in specific areas. The smooth profiles, especially Standing Seam, naturally release snow and ice faster than asphalt shingles, reducing accumulation and the stress on your roof frame during the region's typical 22 km/h wind gusts with peaks to 136 km/h.
Why should I choose aluminum over steel roofing in this climate?
Aluminum cannot rust because it contains no iron — what appears as white oxide is a protective layer that self-heals when scratched. This is especially valuable in Babylon's humid maritime climate with about 1214 mm annual rainfall. Steel roofing, by contrast, requires coatings and constant maintenance to prevent rust penetration. Interlock uses only roofing-grade 3105-H24 and 3003-H24 aluminum alloy per ASTM B209, and applies Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon to both panel sides for extra durability in salt air. The 30-year coating warranty covers fading and chalking; the material itself is guaranteed lifetime against corrosion.
Can Interlock metal roofing withstand Babylon's coastal wind speeds?
Yes — the four-way interlocking panels are warranted to resist wind up to 120 mph when installed to specification, well above Babylon's recorded gust peaks of 136 km/h (about 85 mph). The overlapping seams distribute wind load across the entire roof plane rather than concentrating stress at fastener points, the design that traditional shingles rely on. With about 3193 annual sunshine hours in the region, your roof will remain fully visible, so the interlocking geometry's wind resistance isn't hidden behind weathering or discoloration. This warranty covers both material and installation defects related to wind events.
What's the hail impact rating, and could it lower my insurance costs?
Interlock achieves UL 2218 Class 4, the highest impact classification available — the warranty even covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. The rating is verified through impact testing by independent labs (Intertek 33876), so insurers can see the third-party credential. Some insurers recognize Class 4 metals as lower-risk than asphalt or wood shakes and may adjust premiums accordingly; you should contact your agent with the UL rating and ICC-ES ESR-1790 evaluation report (reissued 2025) to ask. Babylon's climate data shows typical wind gusts to 136 km/h, and hail often accompanies those systems, making impact resistance a practical factor in your region's storm seasons.
Do cool-roof colors really save money on air conditioning in New York?
energy-efficient Interlock colors reflect heat rather than absorbing it — solar reflectance up to 0.55 (Aged Copper Penny) with thermal emissivity 0.84, rated by the Cool Roof Rating Council. In Babylon, where summers benefit from about 3193 annual sunshine hours, this reflectance reduces heat gain through your roof into conditioned spaces, lowering AC runtime on warm days. The effect compounds over a 50-year roof life: even modest reductions in peak cooling loads translate to measurable utility savings. Dark asphalt shingles absorb that same solar energy, raising attic temperatures 20-30°F higher than reflective metal, a difference your cooling system must compensate for during summer.
What's the actual warranty, and does it transfer if I sell?
The Guardian Warranty is lifetime limited, non-prorated material coverage for the original owner — it covers rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance with no deductible. The warranty is one-time transferable to the next owner, providing 50 years from installation completion. This means your home's future buyer gets five decades of protection, adding measurable value at resale. Over a typical 30+ year ownership, this non-prorated coverage means full protection from year one through sale, with no declining claim amounts. Most asphalt roofs require replacement every 15-20 years in Babylon's climate (58 freeze-thaw days and 55 cm snow annually), so Interlock eliminates the tear-off-to-landfill cycle entirely.
Can I install Interlock over my existing roof, or do I need structural work?
You can install Interlock directly over most existing roofs with no structural reinforcement — the Tile profile weighs about 0.59 lb/sq ft, roughly 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile. This means your home's framing carries the metal panels easily, whether you're replacing asphalt, wood shake, or even old tile. The lightweight design also reduces shipping and labor costs compared to other metal profiles. Babylon's building codes follow ICC and IBC standards; Interlock holds ICC-ES evaluation report ESR-1790 (reissued 2025), confirming compliance and installation-over-existing approval. Your local installer, Interlock Roofing of America, can assess your specific structure during a free consultation and confirm the best installation path for your home.
How much maintenance does Interlock actually require compared to asphalt or cedar?
Interlock requires no annual cleaning, sealing, or nail replacement — the aluminum never rots, splinters, or loses fasteners like asphalt and wood do. Cedar shakes and asphalt both demand regular inspection and maintenance in Babylon's 1214 mm annual rainfall and 58 freeze-thaw cycles, where water infiltration leads to mold and structural decay. Aluminum's oxide coating is self-healing, so minor scratches don't expose bare metal; the 30-year Alunar warranty ensures color and gloss stability without refinishing. Over a 50-year lifespan, the cost difference in maintenance labor and materials compounds dramatically — your only task is occasional gutter cleaning. CALGreen verification confirms reduced maintenance requirements against other roofing types.
Is Interlock metal roofing actually recyclable, or just greenwashing?
Approximately 95% of Interlock panels are recyclable aluminum — when your roof reaches end-of-life after 50+ years, the material enters the aluminum recycling stream, retaining value rather than filling landfills. Asphalt shingles, by contrast, are hauled to waste sites after 15-20 years in climates like Babylon's (with 55 cm snow and 58 freeze-thaw days annually), perpetuating a tear-off-and-discard cycle every generation. Aluminum recycling uses only 5% of the energy required to produce virgin metal, so recycled Interlock panels reduce embodied carbon further. The product has been manufactured since 1998 in Delta, BC, and installed from coastal salt-air homes to an Antarctic research station — a production and application history you can verify independently, not a marketing claim.
Is a metal roof a good choice for Babylon’s climate?
Yes. Babylon averages about 55 cm of snow, 1214 mm of rain, roughly 58 freeze–thaw days a year, with peak wind gusts near 136 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.
