Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Conimicut, Rhode Island
| 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:
this companies customer service is awful. they never return calls and the lack of communication is unbelievable. when I inquired about the company, I no sooner hit the send button on my computer when someone called to set up an appointment. after I gave them a down payment , and then after one month passed , I inquired to find out if they had any idea when the project would start .now the urgency to return my inquiry was no longer a priority no one would return my call. after i made about 4 calls with no response I had to call the salesman who then called someone and finally i was told that the material hasn't been ordered yet due to the pandemic...fine I can accept that just call and tell me....... more to follow COMMUNICATION AND PROFESSIONAL COURTESY OF RETURNING CALLS HIRE YOUR OWN WORKERS AND NOT INDEPENDANT CONTRACTORS don't schedule installs dec jan and feb in New England i originally learned of this company through my neighbor. she had a roof put on 15 years ago that looks as good today as it did 15 years ago i wanted a metal roof because i'll probably leave my house to my daughters and i figured that was one less headache they would have to worry about because of the life time warranty . well what i have gone through for the last 5 or 6 months has certainly put a dent into that thought. there were so many little things that happened which cast doubt in my mind as to whether or not i made a big mistake going with this company. the biggest and most irritating was not returning my calls. i started thinking.... i can't get this company to return a call just to find out if they have a start up date yet.....what's going to happen if i have any trouble with this roof in the future after it's installed. so my confidence started to decline a little. then as time went on and we got deeper into the winter, i started to wonder how are they going to install a roof during a new england winter i asked should we wait until warmer weather? the front office said there was no problem...metal roofs are not like asphalt and can be installed during the winter. well when the material finally came in and the workers started the job ,the contractor told me they can't work when the temperature is below a certain temperature. completely opposite from what the front office told me.....more doubt starting to build...prior to the start, someone from the main office called me told me the dumpster would arrive the next day at 2 :00 in the afternoon the dumpster arrived the next day at7:30 in the morning ...only missed it by 7 hours.. more doubt growing. the same person also told me they would not deliver the materials until AFTER the blizzard which was expected on a monday. my wife and i went to the store that friday. when we returned home ,guess what was in our yard, you got it ..all the material was delivered once again the complete opposite from what i was told. so this went on and on. another thing , i was told by the salesman that the vents at the peak of my house should be blocked so they don't interfer with the air flow. well the contractor didn't seem too enthusiastic about doing it then said whatever you want.to do. .what ever i want your the professional ,if they needed to be blocked then block them. if they don't then don't block them .they didn't block them. once again the complete opposite from what the salesman said . another little thing . i asked the salesman if they could remove my gutters during the install..they weren't very good and i wanted to try doing without them .he said no problem but when the job started the contractor said it wasn't in the contract , but they will remove them for me anyway .there were also roofing cables which they did remove and rolled up f'or me. but i guess i was supposed to say gutters and downspouts because the 10foot downspouts and drain pipe are still attached to my house. that's no problem but they also broke a frame to one of the windows of my bay window which cost me 175 dollars to replace ...haven't herd anything from the company about paying for it..nor have i heard anything yet about the 500 dollars my neighbor should be getting for a referral fee. well after all these episodes, the straw that broke the camel's back occurred after i paid for the entire job.i paid the crew lead the entire amount as called for by the contract. he signed and dated the check. nothing was said to me about any additional moneys owed.i was PAID IN FULL .the very next day, the salesman who i have not heard from for over five months expressing any type of concern for all the delays i've indured calls me and says i owe over 2000 for additional shingles that had to be removed and rotted wood that had to be replaced. i explained above about all this BS. ALL this ignoring me and not saying one word to me about anything at all for the last 5 months finally peaked with this phone call and caused me to explode. all my questions, all my doubts, all my sleepless nights worrying about whether or not i made a good decision were now answered. did i make a good decision...unfortunately the answer is NO. i am really disappointed to have to write this review. all that i have looked forward to enjoying this roof has really had a damper put on it. to give credit where credit is due..the roof looks great all kinds of people have come by and told me how good it looks. even though the roof looks good, every time it rains ,snows, wind driven snow and rain my heart will be in my mouth hoping and preying that the roof doesn't leak because if it does , i have no faith at all that this company will stand behind its lifetime warranty...very very disappointed steve montanaro
Well, I stand corrected. First I want to apologize for the tone of my last email. I was anticipating a high pressure sales pitch, and dealing with some health issues at present, I was in no mood to deal with being pressured to buy something. Frankly, I was pleasantly surprised with Michael. Although he presented a good argument of why and how Interlock was a good roof product, at no time did my wife or I feel pressured into buying your product. Also, as I've been burned a couple of times in the past, I made it a personal rule that I NEVER sign a contract on first meeting. As you can see, apparently I broke my own rule in this case, as my wife and I had already researched other roof products and it appeared that Interlock was a reputable company with many favorable reviews. Also, much of our opinion was based in no small measure in the way Michael Baldassari presented himself, the company, and the product. Having said this, we look forward with anticipation to showing off our new roof and are hopeful that others in our neighborhood will appreciated the beauty and benefits of an Interlock all metal roof as well.
When I first called, they told me some pricing on the regular shingles. Then, it turned out to be almost fives times more.
Received call that dumpster would be delivered but not construction materials and product was put in second driveway and I preferred in the first driveway. Installers were very professional and hard workers. Only comment about installers was command of the English language was very limited and no one else from the office communicated throughout the 5 day installation.
I didn't like the way they installed the roof, it's not laid out right. I feel like they did a shoty job on a couple of things. I would like them to come back out and fix the things that I'm not happy with. I don't like the way they placed one roof cap on at all. One sticks up and they used clear caulking on that and I don't like the way that looks.

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Conimicut
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Conimicut, Rhode Island. 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 Conimicut.
How does a metal roof handle Conimicut's heavy snow and freeze-thaw cycles?
Aluminum's smooth, hard surface naturally sheds snow and ice better than asphalt because it has no grip for buildup. Conimicut averages about 75 cm of snow yearly and roughly 80 freeze-thaw days, meaning your roof experiences constant stress from water that melts and refreezes in cracks—a leading cause of asphalt failure. Interlock's four-way interlocking panels, when installed to spec, are warranted to resist wind gusts up to 120 mph, and the aluminum oxide layer cannot split or crack from thermal cycling the way wood, clay, or asphalt do. Snow guards are available if you need to control slide-off.
Why does freeze-thaw damage asphalt roofs in New England but not Interlock metal panels?
Asphalt and organic materials absorb moisture; when water enters, freezing expands it and causes splitting and curling. Interlock panels are made from roofing-grade 3105-H24 aluminum alloy—a non-porous metal that resists water intrusion entirely. Over 80 freeze-thaw cycles per year in Conimicut, this difference compounds: asphalt loses integrity in 15-20 years, while aluminum remains structurally uncompromised. The material's density and sealing design mean water cannot penetrate or weaken the panel itself, giving you a roof that survives decades of seasonal stress without degradation.
Can Conimicut's salty air and moisture rust an aluminum metal roof?
No. Aluminum contains no iron, so it cannot rust chemically. Instead, when exposed to salt air or moisture, it forms a thin aluminum oxide layer that seals the surface automatically—and if scratched, it self-heals. Interlock panels receive Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon coating on both sides (interior and exterior), giving an additional 30-year warranty against chalking and fading. This dual-layer protection is especially important in coastal regions like Conimicut where salt spray accelerates corrosion of steel. The result is a roof that strengthens with age rather than degrades.
What hail protection does a metal roof offer, and could it lower my insurance?
Interlock metal roofing carries a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the Guardian Warranty covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. Class 4 resistance means the roof withstands repeated, severe impacts that would damage or dent asphalt, wood, or tile. Many insurers recognize this durability and offer premium discounts for Class 4-rated roofs because claims are rare. Given Conimicut's average wind gusts of 125 km/h and variable spring weather, impact protection is practical insurance—literally. Ask your agent about metal roof discounts; the upfront investment often offsets through lower premiums over 10-20 years.
Is a metal roof really cheaper than asphalt over time?
Metal roofing costs more upfront than asphalt—typically $12-18 per square foot installed versus $8-12 for shingles—but it is the last roof you buy. Asphalt requires replacement every 15-20 years; Interlock comes with a lifetime limited warranty (non-prorated for the original owner, then transferable for 50 years to the next owner). Over 50 years, you'll replace asphalt two to three times while maintaining one metal roof. Factor in avoided tear-off costs (~$1-2 per square foot per replacement), re-roofing labor, and potential insurance discounts, and the metal roof breaks even around year 30—then runs free. Current financing includes no payments and no interest until Spring 2027.
Will my house need expensive structural reinforcement for a metal roof?
No. Interlock's Mediterranean Tile profile, the heaviest in the line, installs at just 0.59 lb/sq ft—about 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile. Even the Shake profile is only 0.58 lb/sq ft. Most wood-frame homes built in the last 60 years can support asphalt shingles (1.5-2.5 lb/sq ft), so aluminum panels add minimal load. The real advantage: because metal is so light, you can often install it directly over your existing asphalt roof, eliminating costly tear-off labor and landfill fees. Interlock Metal Roofing (New England) Inc. has installed over thousands of metal roofs since 1999; our team assesses your structure and confirms compatibility at no charge.
How often do I need to clean or maintain a metal roof in New England?
Metal roofs require far less maintenance than asphalt, wood, or tile. Asphalt shingles trap algae and moss, especially in Conimicut's ~1264 mm annual rainfall and humid climate, and need pressure washing or replacement every 7-10 years. Interlock's aluminum surface sheds debris, resists algae adhesion, and rarely requires more than occasional gutter clearing and a rinse after heavy storms. The coating—Alunar 70% PVDF—is verified CALGreen-compliant for reduced-maintenance roofing. Over a 50-year lifespan, you'll spend a fraction of what wood shakes or tile demand for repairs, sealing, and replacement.
Can a metal roof help lower my cooling costs in summer?
Yes. Interlock's energy-efficient colors feature thermal emissivity of 0.84 and solar reflectance up to 0.55 (Aged Copper Penny)—meaning they reflect heat rather than absorb it like dark asphalt. In Conimicut, with about 3075 sunshine hours yearly, this reflectivity reduces roof surface temperature by 20-30°F on clear days, lowering attic heat gain and cooling load. A Cool Roof Rating Council-rated metal roof won't transform your energy bill overnight, but across 20-30 years of summers, the cumulative savings pay dividends. The effect is strongest in spring and fall when you're running air conditioning but days are still long—precisely when Conimicut's variable weather makes efficiency gains noticeable.
How does a metal roof with seams prevent leaks in heavy rain?
Interlock's four-way interlocking panel design creates a mechanical seal: each panel's edges lock to its neighbor, preventing water from flowing sideways between panels. Paired with a solid deck and underlayment, water is directed downward toward eaves where gutters capture it. Unlike asphalt, which relies on adhesive seals that degrade after 10-15 years, metal interlocks don't deteriorate. Conimicut receives about 1264 mm of rain annually—roughly 100 mm monthly on average—so your roof must shed water reliably for decades. The interlocking geometry, combined with aluminum's non-porous surface, means water cannot penetrate panel joints or cause rot, mold, or structural damage even in sustained downpours.
Is a metal roof better for the environment than asphalt shingles?
Yes. Interlock panels are approximately 95% recyclable aluminum; at end-of-life, they return to the scrap market and become new products—aircraft, cars, or future roofs. Asphalt shingles, by contrast, end up in landfills where they persist for decades, releasing volatile organics and taking up space. Over a 50-year period, a metal roof eliminates three to four asphalt tear-offs (~3-4 tons of waste per typical home), cutting landfill impact dramatically. Aluminum recycles infinitely without degradation, and Interlock has been manufactured in Delta, BC since 1998—a fraction of the embodied carbon compared to shipping heavy asphalt bundles repeatedly. Choosing metal means you buy one roof, not three, and keep waste out of the system.
Is a metal roof a good choice for Conimicut’s climate?
Yes. Conimicut averages about 75 cm of snow, 1264 mm of rain, roughly 80 freeze–thaw days a year, with peak wind gusts near 125 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.
