Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Warwick Neck, 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 Warwick Neck
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Warwick Neck, 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 Warwick Neck.
Will a metal roof hold up to Rhode Island's freeze-thaw cycles?
Yes—aluminum actually thrives in freeze-thaw conditions because it has no iron and cannot rust. Warwick Neck experiences about 80 freeze-thaw days per year, which would crack asphalt, warp wood shingles, and degrade traditional tile grout. Aluminum's oxide layer self-heals when scratched, so repeated expansion and contraction from temperature swings (mean 11°C annually) won't compromise the material. The Alunar 70% PVDF coating is warranted 30 years against chalking and fading, meaning your roof's finish survives decades of seasonal stress without degradation.
How does a metal roof handle Warwick Neck's snow load and ice dams?
Metal roofs shed snow and ice far more effectively than asphalt, preventing ice dams that trap water and leak into your home. Warwick Neck averages about 75 cm of snow annually, and the smooth, hard surface of Interlock panels—installed at just 0.41 lb/sq ft for the Shingle profile—allows snow to slide before it compacts into dangerous buildups. The four-way interlocking system keeps panels locked together even under shifting snow weight, and you can add snow guards to any profile if you prefer controlled release. Unlike asphalt, which absorbs water and freezes in place, aluminum simply won't degrade from repeated snow cycles.
Can Interlock metal roofing survive Warwick Neck's nor'easters and coastal wind gusts?
The four-way interlocking aluminum panels are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph when installed to specification. Warwick Neck's typical wind gusts reach about 125 km/h (78 mph), well within that threshold, and the interlocking design means every panel is mechanically locked to its neighbors—there's no way wind can lift a single shingle or tile off your roof. The lightweight design (the Tile profile weighs ~96% less than concrete or clay tile) also means less stress on fasteners during gusts. You're protected in the severe wind events implied by your coastal location, and you won't experience the gradual uplift and curling that weakens asphalt over time.
What hail protection does Interlock metal roofing offer, and could it lower my insurance?
Interlock holds the highest hail impact rating available: UL 2218 Class 4, and the Guardian Warranty actually covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. This non-combustible aluminum roof often qualifies homeowners for insurance discounts because it eliminates one of the costliest risks insurers face. Warwick Neck's climate includes occasional severe thunderstorms, and unlike asphalt—which dents, cracks, and loses granules to hail—metal panels simply absorb impact without damage. Many insurers recognize the Class 4 rating and lower your premium accordingly, sometimes recovering a portion of your installation cost within the first few years. Ask your agent about discounts when you switch to Interlock.
Will a metal roof help reduce cooling costs in summer?
energy-efficient Interlock colors with high solar reflectance (up to 0.55 for Aged Copper Penny, with thermal emissivity of 0.84) reflect heat that asphalt shingles absorb and radiate into your attic. Warwick Neck receives about 3075 sunshine hours per year, meaning your roof is exposed to substantial solar gain over the warm months. Metal roofing reduces the heat load on your air conditioning system, lowering summer utility bills. The Cool Roof Rating Council rates these coatings based on their ability to reflect infrared radiation, so your cooling savings are measurable and third-party verified. In a maritime climate with mild summers, the payoff is steadier than in hot climates—you'll see year-round energy savings rather than seasonal spikes.
Is a metal roof really maintenance-free, or do I need to clean gutters and trim branches?
Metal roofing is dramatically lower maintenance than asphalt, wood, or tile, but you still clean gutters and trim overhanging branches—just much less often. Asphalt shingles shed granules every winter (especially after Warwick Neck's 1264 mm of annual rain), clog gutters, and require inspection for algae, moss, and missing pieces. Metal won't curl, split, crack, or need patching. The CALGreen-verified Interlock roof resists moss and mold growth because water runs off immediately instead of sitting in shingles. Expect to inspect gutters perhaps twice yearly rather than four or more times, and you'll never re-roof this material in your lifetime. That's the actual maintenance savings—not zero work, but a dramatic reduction in your 30-year cost.
What is the actual lifespan of Interlock metal roofing, and what does the warranty cover?
Interlock roofs last 50+ years in the field, backed by the Guardian Warranty: lifetime limited coverage for the original owner (non-prorated material), covering rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance. When you sell, the warranty transfers once to the next owner for 50 years from completion, adding measurable resale appeal. The Alunar coating alone carries a separate 30-year warranty against chalking and fading (ASTM D4214 and D2244 measured), so your roof's appearance and protective finish are guaranteed for three decades. Compared to asphalt (15–20 years), you're purchasing the last roof you'll install on this home—a profound economic and environmental shift.
Can Interlock metal roofing be installed over my existing asphalt roof, and how long does installation take?
Yes, Interlock panels install directly over most existing roofs because the Shake and Tile profiles weigh only ~0.59 lb/sq ft—about 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile—so no structural reinforcement is needed. Your existing asphalt becomes part of the thermal and moisture-control layer, reducing installation cost and disruption. Installation timeline depends on roof size and profile, but most residential projects complete within 2–5 days; a trained crew from Interlock Metal Roofing (New England) Inc., serving this region since 1999, will provide a detailed schedule. The process is cleaner than tear-offs: no asphalt debris hauled to landfills, no days without weather protection, and your home stays comfortable throughout the install.
Is a metal roof better for the environment than asphalt shingles?
Absolutely. Interlock's aluminum is approximately 95% recyclable at end of life, and because the roof lasts 50+ years instead of 15–20 for asphalt, you eliminate the cycle of tearing off old shingles and sending them to landfills. Warwick Neck receives 1264 mm of rain annually, and asphalt sheds granules, oils, and binders into stormwater runoff; Interlock produces no chemical leaching. The material is CALGreen-verified for reduced maintenance, meaning no toxic sealers, no wood treatments, and no environmental cost of repeated replacements over a century. When your metal roof finally reaches the end of its life in 2070 or beyond, the aluminum scrap has genuine recycling value—unlike bundled asphalt shingles that end up in waste disposal.
Is Interlock metal roofing worth the upfront cost compared to asphalt shingles?
Yes, when you calculate the total cost of ownership over the roof's lifespan. Asphalt costs less upfront but lasts 15–20 years in Warwick Neck's harsh climate of 1264 mm rain, 75 cm snow, and 80 freeze-thaw cycles annually—meaning you'll replace it 2–3 times before Interlock wears out. Add labor, disposal fees, and the disruption of multiple replacements, and asphalt becomes expensive. Interlock's lifetime limited warranty and 50-year transferable coverage mean you're buying your last roof, not a temporary fix. Current promotion: zero payments and no interest until Spring 2027, or 10% off installation—eliminating the cost barrier entirely. Divide the total installation cost by 50 years, and metal roofing costs less per year than asphalt, plus you avoid gutter cleaning from granule shedding and emergency leaks.
Is a metal roof a good choice for Warwick Neck’s climate?
Yes. Warwick Neck 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.
