Review: May 3, 2021 Completion: February 15, 2016

Critical: Professionalism, Responsiveness My husband and I purchased a home with an existing Interlock roof from his parents this past year. The roof has been fine, we have no issues. However, we are looking to add an addition to our home and because interlock requires their staff to perform all work on the roof because of the " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">warranty we contacted them regarding this. My husband has attempted to reach Interlock for the past 1-2 months with out any call back from anyone. He just keeps getting the front desk secretary that answers the phone and takes the message. He has even requested to speak with the supervisor of the Sharon branch, but again with no call back. I have never experienced such a terrible customer service experience from a company. I do not recommend pursuing a metal roof with Interlock for the fear that if you had a problem with your roof, you may not get in touch with anyone to repair it. If you do proceed with Interlock, prepare yourself to have to call them multiple times per day every day. Update: I received a call back from Interlock today after receiving my google review. Thankfully, they have begun to work on my outstanding issue. Service: Roof installation

Review: August 15, 2018 Completion: June 8, 2018

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.

Review: November 15, 2016 Completion: August 30, 2016

I first found out about Interlock metal roofs when I visited one of our customer's homes and noticed the gorgeous roof...I asked her who installed it for her and she told me it was a metal roof by Interlock. The roof on my house was in very bad shape and I was shopping for a new roof and I put Interlock at the top of my list. Upon doing some research, I realized that an Interlock roof was going to cost me quite a bit more than a conventional shingled roof and I was bummed that it may be out of my budget, so I got several quotes on conventional shingles before I finally decided to contact Interlock and get an accurate quote. From the first contact with the Interlock sales rep, Jeff Smith, I could tell that Interlock was a company that operated at a far higher level than any other home improvement companies I have come in contact with...Jeff was extremely knowledgeable, personable, and prepared! He conducted himself in a professional manner and took the time to ask lots of questions about my goals for the house and roof, he took accurate measurements so he could provide me with an accurate quote and while he was preparing his quote (on the spot), he had me watch an informational video on his iPad that outlined all of the benefits of an Interlock roof (Lifetime Warranty, hail resistant, wind resistant, Energy efficient, snow slides off, etc., etc.). By the end of the video, I was 100% convinced that the product is amazing and I knew it was the roof I wanted...but, I was still nervous that it would be waaayyy out of my budget. I told Jeff of my concerns and he presented me with the quote....which, as I suspected, was almost 2.5 times more than a conventional shingle roof. Once I got over my initial sticker shock, I thought about all the value that I would be getting...Lifetime Warranty, hail resistant, wind resistant, Energy efficient, snow slides off, etc., etc. and the decision became much easier...then, to make it even easier, Interlock offered me great financing which fit my budget perfectly! How could I say no? The roof was installed about 2 months ago and it looks AWESOME!! I am very happy with the decision to spend the extra money for a high quality product and I've already recommended Interlock to multiple people...including my brother who is an architect for high-end homes and he was so impressed with the quality that he's been recommending Interlock roofs to his clients!

Review: May 16, 2016 Completion: August 18, 2021

It has been a year since I had my Interlock roof installed and I have meant to write this letter. I am glad I waited because I discovered additional advantages to the roof system by Interlock. I initially was impressed by the planning. Mr. Baldassari explained the roof, brought samples, how it would be installed on my house and interface with existing gutters. He also provided local addresses of Interlock roofs that I could view which was very helpful. During the planning process, he recommended changes I may not have thought of but would eliminate future costs and problems. In my case, he recommended the replacement of several failing skylights which I would purchase but be installed at no charge. The job went smoothly. The crew showed up early and stayed late, answered all my questions, leaving a clean, organized job site at the end of each day. The attention to detail was impressive. The house was a complex roof with several skylights, vents, and a masonry chimney. There was also a large barn and outbuilding, Demetri, one of the crew, reinstalled a large weathervane on the barn assuring me if he installed it, it would never come off. I was happy with the roof install. Since the installation, I have found additional benefits. Because my roof had not failed completely the Interlock roof was able to be installed over the existing roof eliminating the cost of strip off and keeping all the asphalt shingles out of the landfill. I also reduced my insurance risk; one of the considerations was the high wind rating. I live in a hurricane high wind zone for insurance coverage. The deductible was about equal to a new asphalt roof if I put a new conventional roof on replacement cost is not covered, and they prorate it and give you even less as the roof ages, so you basically have no roof insurance. I feel I do not have that problem now with the Interlock roof due to the high wind rating and " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">warranty. I have just retired, and this gives me a great peace of mind, a lifetime durable roof. I also lowered my insurance cost as now all buildings have a class “A” fire rating on the roof. The roof qualified for federal energy credits and meets “Energy Star” ratings, so I saved money on taxes. My energy costs are lower; the roof reflects summer heat keeping the attic cooler reducing air conditioning costs. My attic is vented to outside and uninsulated, so there is no advantage to heating. This roof also eliminates " title="ice dams" data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">ice dams due to its design, and while many homes had ice dams and water damage to the interior of the house last winter, I had no formation of ice dams and no damage at all, an unexpected bonus. I do not notice any noise from rain or weather an initial concern I had. I live on a busy street and have people stop to compliment on the roof (aged " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">copper) and get information which I am happy to give. I have a more beautiful home, peace of mind, and will never have to re-roof.

Review: August 12, 2012 Completion: June 24, 2013

Dear Interlock: It has been a couple of months since the installation of my Interlock roof was completed, and two neighborhood endorsements have been forthcoming in that period. First, neighbors have commented about how good it looks, and second, they have commented on the daily cleanup done by the installation crew. I heartily endorse my neighbors’ comments. The cleanup factor really became evident shortly after when a conventional shingle roof was installed a few houses away by a local contractor. Materials were staged in front of the house rather than out of sight in the rear, and the place looked like a mess until the job was completed. As you are aware, the design of my house coupled with the prior construction of an addition across the length of the rear presented unusual challenges. While aluminum shingles could be used on the front, the slope of the back required an installation of Interlock’s membrane roof product. Further complicating the matter was a double roof in the rear with no ventilation of the void between the two roofs. Although you built a ventilation solution into the contract price, hidden construction issues once the work commenced on the rear necessitated redesigning the proposed ventilation solution. This could easily have been an opportunity for Interlock to take advantage of the situation, but the pricing of the change was handled by you and your office staff in a very fair manner. The extensive carpentry that became necessary did, I suspect, add the better part of a day to the job, yet the additional cost was nominal for the effort involved. As important as the pricing was to me, it was just as important and most gratifying to see the carpentry skills employed by the installation crew as they implemented the changes. The one concern my wife had in going with a metal roof was noise during a rainstorm, and some severe weather has shown that noise is not a problem. Also, as everyone is aware, July broke heat records, yet my home’s interior has been more comfortable thanks to the reflectivity of the roof. In conclusion, I am very pleased with the outcome.

Review: September 16, 2007 Completion: July 24, 2007

The Interlock Roofing System installed on our home has changed the entire look of the building. It has made the house stand out from the other homes on the street. I am happy to say that the new roof has met or surpassed all that we had hoped for. Not only has it improved the look of the house, but, as you mentioned, it has lowered the temperature of the second floor during the " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">hot summer months. The snow catchers placed on the front porch look as decorative as well as functional. It is comforting to know as I approach retirement age, that I will never have the expense of replacing the roof again, nor will I have to worry about leaks in the future. I would also like to comment on the work team that did the installation. I have never had a contractor come in and work as hard as they did. They basically worked from dawn to dusk. I was amazed that they were able to complete the job in about two and a half days, especially considering that they had to redo all the sheathing on our roof. I thank you and your workers for a job well done.

Review: September 23, 2004 Completion: September 5, 2003

I am writing to let you know how very pleased my husband and I are with our new Interlock roof. We can't believe how very classy our house looks now. It has gone from just another house on the street to "Wow!, look at that house". We can't tell you how many people have stopped on the side of the road to check out our new roof. We have received many complements. We were amazed at how quickly the installation was from start to finish. The yard was cleaned up each and every day at the end of the work day. You wouldn't even of known that we were in the middle of having our roof done. We couldn't be happier that we have decided to invest in the Interlock Roofing. It is something that will last us a lifetime and one less thing that we will have to worry about later on. We will and have recommended Interlock roofing to anyone in need of a replacement or a new roof.

Review: November 12, 2003 Completion: November 12, 2003

We just had the completion of our new roof. We are happy at how professional the job looks, and how the Interlock material gives the house a different look. It's a very good looking rich roof, we love the way the aluminum pieces interlock each other and make the house look so different than the other roofs. Many of the neighbors have stopped to look at the roof all are impressed how good and nice it looks. The workers were professional, hard workers and fast, and they cleaned up every night. We are very happy and pleased with the decision we made. Finally we do not have to worry about the roof any more.

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Kerry Hill

The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Kerry Hill, 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 Kerry Hill.

Will a metal roof hold up to Rhode Island's freeze-thaw cycles?

Yes—aluminum actually thrives in freeze-thaw climates. Kerry Hill experiences about 80 freeze-thaw days per year, but aluminum expands and contracts uniformly without cracking, splitting, or absorbing moisture like asphalt or wood. The 3105-H24 / 3003-H24 aluminum alloy won't develop stress fractures from repeated temperature swings. The four-way interlocking panels accommodate movement, and because aluminum contains no iron, it skips the rust problem that steel roofing faces when water gets trapped during freeze cycles. This durability is backed by the Guardian lifetime limited warranty for the original owner.

How does a metal roof handle Kerry Hill's snow and ice load?

Interlock's light weight and smooth panel profiles shed snow efficiently without overloading your structure. Kerry Hill receives roughly 75 centimeters of snow annually, but the Slate profile installs at just 0.41 lb/sq ft—about 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile—so no structural reinforcement is needed, even over existing roofs. The interlocked seams create a continuous barrier that prevents water from pooling during freeze-thaw transitions. Snow guards can be added if desired for fire safety or to manage runoff direction. The design prevents ice dams because heat loss distributes evenly across the aluminum surface.

Can a metal roof survive Kerry Hill's winter gusts?

Yes. The four-way interlocking system is engineered to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph and is warranted to that threshold when installed to specification. Kerry Hill's typical gusts reach about 125 km/h (roughly 78 mph), well within the panel's rated capacity, and the interlocked corners and edges eliminate the uplift points where traditional roofs fail. Each panel locks to its neighbors on all four sides, distributing wind force across the entire roof rather than concentrating stress on fasteners. The ICC-ES evaluation report ESR-1790 confirms this design for IBC/IRC code compliance, so your insurance company and inspector will recognize it as a legitimate wind-resistant system.

What's the hail rating on a metal roof, and will insurance notice?

Interlock holds a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the warranty even covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. That's the same rating insurers use when evaluating roofing durability. Many homeowners find their premiums drop after installing a Class 4 roof because the carrier knows claims will be rare. Check with your agent; some offer 5–15% discounts for impact-rated metal. In Rhode Island's climate, with typical wind gusts around 125 km/h and seasonal weather swings, having a roof that doesn't dent, split, or lose granules under stress is both a practical advantage and a documented asset on your home's insurance file.

What does the warranty really cover, and how long is it good?

The Guardian lifetime limited warranty is non-prorated for the original owner and covers rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance—basically, every failure mode except owner abuse or acts of war. It's one-time transferable, giving the next owner 50 years of coverage from completion. That's unusual; most roofing warranties either expire fast or cost more to transfer. Because aluminum cannot rust and the Alunar coating is warranted 30 years against fading, you're looking at a roof that typically outlasts the house in Kerry Hill's 1264 mm annual rainfall and 80 freeze-thaw days. It's the last roof you buy.

Is a metal roof worth the upfront cost compared to asphalt shingles?

Over the roof's life, yes. Asphalt typically lasts 15–20 years in Kerry Hill's climate (high rain, freeze-thaw, UV), then requires tear-off and landfill disposal. A metal roof stays functional 50+ years with zero maintenance beyond occasional inspection. Factor in that you never replace asphalt shingles again, never pay for tear-off, and avoid the structural reinforcement that traditional slate or tile demands. The Slate profile at 0.41 lb/sq ft installs over most existing roofs, saving demolition costs. Current promotion: no payments and no interest until Spring 2027, or 10% off installation. Over 40+ years, that math favors metal decisively. Add potential insurance discounts from the Class 4 impact rating, and the gap narrows further.

How long does installation take, and can you install over my current roof?

Installation typically takes 3–5 days depending on roof size and complexity. Because Interlock panels are light—the Mediterranean Tile at 0.59 lb/sq ft is about 96% lighter than concrete tile—most existing roofs (asphalt, wood shakes, older metal) can support them without structural work. Interlock Metal Roofing (New England) Inc. has served the region since 1999 and handles Kerry Hill installations routinely. The crew installs underlayment and straps over your existing roof, then interlocks the panels across the surface. No tear-off means less debris, faster work, and lower labor costs. The interlocking seams are sealed as installed, so your new roof is watertight by day's end.

Will a metal roof reduce cooling costs in summer?

energy-efficient colors with Aged Copper Penny finish reflect up to 0.55 of incoming solar radiation and have thermal emissivity of 0.84, meaning they absorb and then release heat rather than storing it like dark asphalt. In Kerry Hill's 3075 annual sunshine hours, that reflectance cuts cooling load meaningfully. The Cool Roof Rating Council certifies these values, so you're not guessing—documented performance. Summer cooling costs drop further because the metal surface doesn't trap heat the way traditional roofing does. Combined with proper attic ventilation, a reflective metal roof keeps the interior cooler without oversizing your air conditioning. Winter benefit is indirect: the same light weight lets you add insulation without structural concern.

What maintenance does a metal roof actually need?

Almost none. Unlike asphalt shingles that lose granules, wood shakes that split and curl in freeze-thaw cycles, or tile that cracks, metal requires no patching, recoating, or seasonal repairs. Occasional visual inspection (twice yearly if you want to be thorough) is enough. Gutters and downspouts need cleaning as always, but the roof surface itself stays sound through Kerry Hill's 1264 millimeters of rain and 75 centimeters of snow yearly. The aluminum oxide layer self-maintains; the Alunar coating stays warranted 30 years. CALGreen verification confirms this low-maintenance profile. You're free from the climb-and-scrape routine that consumes time and money on traditional roofing. That's a 40-year advantage most homeowners don't calculate but feel immediately.

Is metal roofing actually better for the environment?

Yes. Interlock aluminum is approximately 95% recyclable; when your roof finally reaches end-of-life (50+ years from now), it goes back into the aluminum supply chain, not a landfill. Asphalt shingles, by contrast, are torn off every 15–20 years and sent to waste—Kerry Hill alone generates thousands of tons annually. Metal roofing also ends the cycle of repeated manufacturing, transport, and disposal. Because panels are light (the Slate at 0.41 lb/sq ft installs over existing roofs), you avoid tear-off waste entirely on most homes. The manufacturing process in Delta, BC has operated since 1998 with a focus on material efficiency. Choose aluminum and you reduce your home's lifecycle footprint significantly while getting a roof that lasts 50+ years.
