Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Fishers Island, 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 Fishers Island
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Fishers Island, 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 Fishers Island.
Why won't my metal roof rust in Fishers Island's salty coastal air?
Interlock roofs are aluminum, not steel—aluminum physically cannot rust because it contains no iron. Instead, aluminum develops a microscopic oxide layer that self-heals when scratched, making it naturally corrosion-resistant in salt-spray environments. This advantage matters here: with about 1208 mm of annual rainfall and coastal salt exposure, aluminum outlasts steel. The roofing-grade 3105-H24 alloy meets ASTM B209 specs and is coated on both sides with Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon finish (30-year warranty against fade), doubling protection where salt air is most aggressive.
How does an aluminum metal roof handle freeze-thaw cycles on Fishers Island?
Aluminum's composition gives it a decisive advantage in freeze-thaw damage. With about 87 freeze-thaw days per year here, wooden shakes split and curl, asphalt becomes brittle and cracks. Aluminum panels expand and contract uniformly without cracking or warping because the material has no grain, no trapped moisture, and no structural weakness. The four-way interlocking design (ICC-ES ESR-1790 certified for IBC/IRC) accommodates micro-movement while maintaining weather-tight seals. Over decades of cycling, your roof's structural integrity remains intact—unlike materials that degrade with each winter-spring transition.
Does Fishers Island's 75 cm of annual snow cause problems for metal roofing?
Snow loads are not a problem for aluminum metal roofs. With about 75 cm of snow annually and typical gusts reaching 127 km/h, your roof needs strength without excess weight—aluminum delivers both. The roofing-grade alloy meets structural codes for snow load (ESR-1790), while the panels' extraordinary lightness (Shake profile at 0.58 lb/sq ft) eliminates the need for structural reinforcement. The smooth, interlocked surface sheds snow efficiently without ice-dam buildup, and snow guard hardware installs easily. Your existing structure bears less load than it would under asphalt or tile, reducing stress over the roof's lifetime.
Can this roof withstand Fishers Island's winter storms and gusts?
Yes. Interlock panels are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph (193 km/h) when installed to specification. Your island experiences typical gusts around 127 km/h; the four-way interlocking aluminum design handles such conditions reliably. Each panel locks mechanically to its neighbors, distributing wind load across the entire roof system rather than relying on fasteners alone. The installation method is verified in ICC-ES ESR-1790, which covers high-wind performance under IBC and IRC codes. Storm season on Fishers Island—where salt-laden gusts are common—shows no performance issues across Interlock's three-decade history of coastal installations.
With 1200+ mm of annual rainfall, how does the roof stay watertight?
Interlock's four-way interlocking aluminum panels are engineered for heavy precipitation. Your area receives about 1208 mm of rain yearly—the overlapping panel geometry, combined with flashing details verified in ESR-1790, creates a multi-layer water barrier. When installed over solid deck with underlayment (standard practice), water runs off or is directed away from any fastener. The Alunar PVDF coating on both sides of each panel resists water penetration and maintains the oxide layer's self-healing properties. Combined with proper gutter sizing and drainage, the system has been field-proven in climates with significantly higher annual rainfall and zero documented leaks in salt-air coastal installations.
Is my home's structure strong enough for a metal roof, or do I need reinforcement?
No reinforcement is needed. Interlock's Mediterranean Tile profile—the heaviest—weighs about 0.59 lb/sq ft, making it roughly 96% lighter than traditional concrete or clay tile. Shake is 0.58 lb/sq ft; Cedar Shingle is even lighter. Because aluminum is so light, it installs directly over most existing roofs, adding minimal load to your frame. This means no expensive structural work, no removal of interior plaster or ceilings, and no delays. The ICC-ES ESR-1790 evaluation covers installations over existing roofs in most cases. For a home on Fishers Island with decades of weather exposure, swapping to aluminum metal actually reduces the structural strain your house endures year after year.
Will a metal roof reduce my cooling costs in summer?
energy-efficient colors reflect solar heat rather than absorbing it, lowering cooling demand on sunny days. Specific energy-efficiency profiles show thermal emissivity of 0.84 and initial solar reflectance up to 0.55 (Aged Copper Penny), which reduces the heat asphalt shingles would trap. Fishers Island receives about 3066 sunshine hours annually; over a year, that reflective advantage compounds. You won't get dramatic AC savings in a cool climate, but the roof stays cooler to the touch, reduces attic heat in summer, and extends shingle life. The Cool Roof Rating Council rating confirms measurable performance—real energy benefit, not marketing claims.
Does Fishers Island get hail, and is my roof protected if it does?
Interlock aluminum roofing carries a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the Guardian Warranty explicitly covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. While Fishers Island's climate data shows no frequent hail risk, the protection is there if severe weather arrives. Many insurance companies recognize the UL 2218 Class 4 rating and may offer premium discounts for non-combustible, high-impact roofing. This rating also covers accidental impact damage (branches, tools, etc.). Over the original owner's lifetime and the next owner's 50-year transfer period, that durability translates to fewer claims, lower risk premiums, and peace of mind during any storm.
How long will this roof last, and what does the warranty actually cover?
The Guardian Warranty is a lifetime limited, non-prorated material warranty for you as the original owner—covering rust, rot, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance. The next owner receives a one-time transferable 50-year coverage from roof completion. In practice, aluminum roofs installed since 1998 across salt-air, snow, and ice environments show no material failures within warranty terms. With about 75 cm of snow, 87 freeze-thaw days, and 1208 mm of rainfall yearly on Fishers Island, the durability stress-test is real. The Alunar coating carries a separate 30-year fade/chalk warranty. This is your last roof; you won't buy another in your ownership timeline.
What maintenance does an aluminum metal roof need compared to asphalt or tile?
Aluminum metal roofing requires minimal maintenance—no algae treatment, no slate/shake replacement, no tile regrouting. Twice yearly, inspect gutters and clear leaves; annually, check fasteners and sealant. Asphalt shingles deteriorate faster in freeze-thaw (87 days per year here), requiring replacement every 15–20 years. Wooden shakes split and curl in cycles of wet and freeze. Clay or concrete tile cracks and needs individual piece replacement. Aluminum does not absorb moisture, cannot split, and its oxide layer self-heals. The Alunar PVDF finish resists chalking and fading even under salt-air exposure. CALGreen standards verify the maintenance reduction. Over 30 years, you'll spend less on labor, replacement parts, and repeat repairs than owners of traditional materials face.
Is a metal roof a good choice for Fishers Island’s climate?
Yes. Fishers Island averages about 75 cm of snow, 1208 mm of rain, roughly 87 freeze–thaw days a year, with peak wind gusts near 127 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.
