Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Montauk, 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.) |

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 Montauk
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Montauk, 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 Montauk.
Will a metal roof rust in Montauk's salty ocean air?
No—aluminum cannot rust because it contains no iron. Instead, it forms a self-healing oxide layer that protects it from salt spray and actually strengthens over time. Interlock's 3105-H24 aluminum alloy is coated on both sides with Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon, a feature specifically designed for coastal environments. This dual-side coating carries a 30-year fade and chalk warranty. With Montauk's ~1153 mm of annual rainfall and salt-laden winds gusting to 130 km/h, this protection is a material advantage steel roofing cannot match.
How does a metal roof handle Montauk's winter snow and ice buildup?
Metal roofs shed snow and ice more effectively than asphalt because their smooth, interlocking surface prevents the granular grip that traps moisture. Montauk receives about 51 cm of snow annually and experiences roughly 29 freeze–thaw days per year—conditions that accelerate ice-dam formation on traditional roofs. Interlock panels' four-way interlocking design and low profile resist wind-driven snow and allow ice to slide safely. Optional snow guards can be positioned to manage release. The aluminum's light weight (Shingle profile at 0.41 lb/sq ft) means no structural reinforcement is needed, even in heavy snow years.
Can a metal roof survive Montauk's strong coastal winds?
Yes. Interlock's four-way interlocking aluminum panels are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph (193 km/h)—well above Montauk's typical gusts of 130 km/h. The interlocking mechanism distributes lateral forces across multiple fastening points, so individual panels cannot lift or separate. Montauk's coastal exposure means wind-driven rain is constant; the mechanical interlock prevents water infiltration at panel seams even during sustained gusts. This design has been field-proven since 1998 across coastal salt-air homes and research stations, making it reliable for this specific environment.
Do I need to reinforce my roof structure for a metal roof?
No structural reinforcement is needed. Interlock's Mediterranean Tile profile weighs approximately 0.59 lb/sq ft—about 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile—and the Shingle profile is even lighter at 0.41 lb/sq ft. This means the new roof can install directly over most existing asphalt shingles without adding load to your home's framing. Montauk homes often sit on modest foundations built for traditional roofing; aluminum's featherweight advantage avoids costly structural work while delivering the visual appeal of heavier materials. Installation is faster and less disruptive because no structural engineer approval is typically required.
Will hail damage a metal roof, and can it lower my insurance costs?
Interlock aluminum roofing carries a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the Guardian Warranty even covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. While Montauk's coastal climate is not a primary hail zone, severe thunderstorms do occur, and the Class 4 rating provides peace of mind. Many insurers recognize impact-resistant roofing and offer premium discounts; contact your agent with Interlock's UL 2218 certification. The non-combustible aluminum also qualifies for Class A fire rating, another trait some carriers reward. Documentation of these ratings should be provided to your insurer when the roof is completed.
Can a metal roof help reduce cooling costs in summer?
Yes. Interlock's energy-efficient colors have thermal emissivity of 0.84 and solar reflectance up to 0.55 in light finishes, meaning they reflect heat that asphalt absorbs and re-radiates into the home. Montauk receives about 3188 sunshine hours per year; on clear, warm days, this reflectance measurably reduces attic temperature and cooling load. The cool-roof effect is verified by the Cool Roof Rating Council. In winter, the aluminum's low thermal mass allows heat to escape, reducing condensation risk during Montauk's 29 freeze–thaw days. Choose a lighter color for maximum summer benefit, or darker shades if winter heating is your priority.
How long does it take to install a metal roof, and can you install over my existing roof?
Interlock panels install quickly because they interlock four ways—no overlapping rows of fasteners to manage. Most residential roofs are completed in one to three days, depending on square footage and complexity. Yes, installation typically occurs over existing asphalt shingles; the lightweight aluminum (Shingle at 0.41 lb/sq ft) eliminates the need for tear-off and landfill disposal, saving time and cost. Interlock Roofing of America has served the region since 2014 and can assess your specific home during a site visit. The process includes evaluation of existing deck, fastener placement per ICC-ES ESR-1790 standards, and final inspection to ensure weather-tightness.
Will a metal roof leak during Montauk's heavy rain and nor'easters?
Metal roofing is engineered to handle heavy rainfall through mechanical panel interlock rather than reliance on sealant. Montauk receives about 1153 mm of rain annually; Interlock's four-way interlocking design means water cannot migrate horizontally into seams. Each panel overlaps the next, creating a shingle-like cascade that directs water downslope. The system is tested to ICC-ES ESR-1790 standards for water tightness. Unlike asphalt, which develops cracks and granule loss in Montauk's freeze–thaw cycles, aluminum panels remain sealed indefinitely. Proper installation by a qualified local contractor ensures fasteners are placed to spec and underlayment is intact.
How long does a metal roof last, and what's covered by the warranty?
Interlock aluminum roofing is warranted for a lifetime limited material coverage under the Guardian Warranty—non-prorated for the original owner. It covers rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance. The next owner receives 50 years from completion, making it a one-time transferable benefit. The Alunar coating itself carries a separate 30-year warranty against fading and chalking. In practice, aluminum roofs routinely exceed 50 years with minimal maintenance, and the engineering design (used since 1998) shows no signs of material degradation. This is the last roof you'll install on your Montauk home, making it the most cost-effective choice over decades.
How much maintenance does a metal roof really need?
Metal roofing requires substantially less maintenance than asphalt, wood, or tile. Asphalt shingles need inspection after Montauk's 29 freeze–thaw days each year and granule loss accelerates in salt-air; Interlock aluminum panels have no granules to lose and no seams to reseal. Wood shakes split and rot in freeze–thaw cycles; aluminum is unaffected. Clay or concrete tiles crack under thermal stress; aluminum is impact-rated to UL 2218 Class 4. Routine care consists of occasional rinsing with fresh water to remove salt accumulation and clearing leaves from gutters. The self-healing oxide layer means minor scratches repair themselves. CALGreen verification confirms reduced lifecycle maintenance compared to traditional materials, saving time and money over 50+ years.
