Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Plainedge, 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 Plainedge
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Plainedge, 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 Plainedge.
Will a metal roof hold up to Plainedge's freeze-thaw cycles?
Yes—aluminum's oxide layer actually strengthens under repeated freeze-thaw stress, unlike asphalt or wood that crack and curl. Plainedge averages about 58 freeze-thaw days per year, which accelerates degradation in traditional materials. Interlock's 3105-H24 aluminum alloy expands and contracts uniformly across the panel, and the four-way interlocking system accommodates movement without splitting. The Alunar coating (30-year warranty against chalking and fading per ASTM D4214) remains flexible through winter, so your panels won't embrittle when temperatures swing between freeze and thaw.
How does Interlock metal roofing handle snow and ice buildup?
The smooth, interlocked aluminum surface sheds snow and ice far more efficiently than asphalt, which traps moisture and encourages ice dam formation. Plainedge receives roughly 55 cm of snow per year; that weight slides cleanly off aluminum at a lower angle than shingles require. Snow guards (installed on your slate, shake, or tile profile) control descent safely without holding water. Because Interlock panels weigh only 0.41–0.59 lb/sq ft—about 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile—your structure handles accumulated load easily, and ice melt drains quickly rather than pooling under trapped shingles.
Can metal roofing withstand Plainedge's nor'easter winds?
Interlock's four-way interlocking system is warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph, well above Nassau County's typical gusts of 136 km/h recorded in major systems. The mechanical interlock—not fasteners alone—ties each panel to its neighbors, distributing uplift force across the entire roof plane rather than concentrating stress on individual fasteners. This design is why the system earned ICC-ES evaluation report ESR-1790 under the IBC/IRC building codes. During Atlantic coastal storms with sustained high winds, the roof flexes as a unified structure rather than separating panels at seams or corners.
Why is aluminum better than steel for roofing in a coastal region?
Aluminum cannot rust because it contains no iron—the element that oxidizes in moisture. Instead, aluminum forms a self-healing oxide layer that actually protects the base metal when scratched. Steel roofs, by contrast, require constant coating maintenance to prevent rust, especially near salt air. Interlock applies Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon to both panel sides (even the underside, for salt-air protection), warranted 30 years against fading and chalking. Plainedge's 1214 mm annual rainfall and freeze-thaw cycling accelerate corrosion in ferrous metals; aluminum's inherent corrosion resistance means your roof won't deteriorate from the inside out, even if the coating weathers.
Do metal roofs get damaged by hail, and can I save on insurance?
Interlock achieves UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the Guardian Warranty even covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. This superior impact resistance often qualifies homeowners for insurance discounts, especially in Nassau County where severe weather is common. Most insurers recognize that aluminum panels bounce back from hail that would puncture or crack asphalt or wood; the non-combustible aluminum also earns Class A fire rating availability, a second discount trigger. Check with your carrier about rate reductions for UL 2218 Class 4 certification; many offer 10–15% savings over the roof's 50-year guardian term.
Will a metal roof help lower cooling costs?
Yes, if you choose an energy-efficient color. Interlock's Aged Copper Penny profile delivers solar reflectance up to 0.55 and thermal emissivity of 0.84, meaning it bounces heat back into the atmosphere rather than absorbing it like asphalt. Plainedge enjoys about 3193 sunshine hours per year; that persistent solar load heats dark asphalt roofs significantly, raising air-conditioning demand. Cool Roof Rating Council certification confirms measurable temperature reduction compared to conventional shingles. While Plainedge's mean temperature (12.5°C) is cool, summer peak loads still benefit from reflective coatings, and the energy savings compound over 50 years of ownership—turning your roof into a net energy asset.
Is metal roofing worth the upfront cost over asphalt?
Yes, when you calculate total cost of ownership across the roof's life. Asphalt typically lasts 15–20 years and requires tear-off and landfill disposal at end-of-life; you'll replace it 2–3 times in 50 years. Interlock's Guardian Warranty is lifetime limited for the original owner and transferable 50 years for the next owner—one installation, no replacement cycle. Factor in avoided labor, disposal fees, and business interruption from re-roofing work, and aluminum's premium upfront cost becomes the cheapest long-term option. Plainedge's freeze-thaw cycles (58 days annually) and heavy rainfall (1214 mm) also accelerate asphalt degradation, so the replacement interval shrinks further in your climate, widening aluminum's value advantage.
How much upkeep does a metal roof actually need?
Very little compared to asphalt, wood, or tile. Interlock aluminum requires no coating reapplication, no algae treatment, no moss scraping, and no seal-coating cycles—CALGreen verification confirms the reduced maintenance profile. Asphalt demands resealing every 3–5 years; wood shake requires fungicide spraying in humid climates; clay tile needs mortar repointing. You'll rinse Plainedge's 1214 mm of annual rainfall and 55 cm of snow away naturally; twice-yearly gutter cleaning and removal of debris are your only tasks. The 30-year Alunar coating warranty means the finish stays vibrant across freeze-thaw cycles (58 per year) without chalking or fading—paint-and-forget durability that saves thousands in labor over five decades.
Can you install a metal roof over my existing shingles?
Yes. Interlock's panels are extraordinarily light (0.41–0.59 lb/sq ft), so installation over existing asphalt requires no structural reinforcement; the roof deck handles the added weight with ease. Your local installer, Interlock Roofing of America, has served this region since 2014 and routinely installs over existing roofs, saving you the labor and disposal cost of tear-off. The installer secures panels to your existing deck with fasteners and interlocking mechanical engagement, creating a unified structure. Installation typically takes 1–3 weeks depending on roof size and complexity. ICC-ES evaluation ESR-1790 confirms this over-existing-roof method meets IBC/IRC codes, so permits are straightforward and inspections routine.
Is metal roofing better for the environment?
Yes—approximately 95% of Interlock's aluminum is recyclable, and the panels never enter the asphalt tear-off-to-landfill cycle that replaces shingle roofs every 15–20 years. Over 50 years in Plainedge (with 1214 mm annual rainfall and 58 freeze-thaw cycles per year causing faster asphalt decay), you'd dispose of 2–3 separate roofs into landfills; one Interlock roof stays on your home for life. At end of service, the aluminum returns to recycling streams for automotive, aircraft, and new roofing stock—closed-loop sustainability. Choosing a roof that outlasts multiple asphalt cycles means fewer trucks, fewer dumps, and fewer carbon emissions from manufacturing replacement materials. The Guardian Warranty's 50-year transferable term maximizes the environmental payoff by keeping the same roof in use across generations.
