Review: March 10, 2022Completion: February 21, 2022

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

Review: August 15, 2018Completion: 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.

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.

Review: September 14, 2015Completion: August 24, 2015

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

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

Will a metal roof handle Warwick's freeze-thaw cycles without cracking or deteriorating?

Yes—aluminum's crystalline structure resists the stress that cracks wood shingles and shatters concrete tile during Warwick's roughly 80 freeze-thaw days per year. Unlike materials that expand and contract unevenly, 3105-H24 aluminum alloy (ASTM B209) moves uniformly, and its self-healing oxide layer prevents the micro-fractures that lead to water infiltration. The Alunar 70% PVDF coating, warranted 30 years against chalking, protects against salt-laden moisture in spring thaws. This combination is why Interlock panels have performed from Canadian coastal homes to Antarctic research stations.

How does a metal roof perform under Warwick's heavy snow and ice load?

Interlock's four-way interlocking panels shed snow and prevent ice dams by creating a smooth, continuous surface that doesn't trap moisture the way shingles do. Warwick receives about 75 centimeters of snow annually, yet the Shake profile weighs just 0.58 lb/sq ft—light enough to install over your existing roof without structural reinforcement, while still rated for UL 2218 Class 4 hail impact. The tight interlocks also mean no gaps where freeze-thaw cycles can force water between layers, a critical advantage during Warwick's snowy winters when meltwater refreezes repeatedly.

With 1,264 mm of rain annually in Warwick, will metal roofing actually keep water out?

Metal roofing's success in heavy rain comes from interlocking panel edges and proper installation technique, not from the metal itself. Interlock's four-way interlocks create overlapping seals that shed water faster than water can pool—your solid deck and underlayment stop any seepage, making the system perform like an asphalt roof you can trust for 50+ years. Warwick's average rainfall and frequent weather changes mean you need drainage you can count on; the Guardian warranty covers water infiltration for your lifetime as original owner, then transfers to the next owner for 50 years from completion.

Why is aluminum better than steel for a Rhode Island roof where salt air and moisture are constant?

Aluminum contains no iron, so it cannot rust—period. Steel oxidizes into flaking, weakening rust; aluminum oxidizes into a transparent, self-healing layer that seals itself when scratched, a critical distinction in salt-air environments. Interlock applies Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon finish to both sides of every panel (extra protection against coastal corrosion), warranted 30 years against fading and chalking per ASTM standards. The company has installed thousands of roofs from Atlantic and Pacific coastal homes where salt spray would destroy steel within years; Warwick's moisture-rich 11°C climate and occasional gusty conditions make aluminum's corrosion resistance a genuine 50-year investment.

Can a metal roof withstand Warwick's wind gusts without peeling or leaking?

Interlock's four-way interlocking aluminum panels are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph (193 km/h) when installed to specification. Warwick sees typical gusts around 125 km/h, so you're covered with confidence. The interlocks physically prevent uplift and lateral movement—each panel grips its neighbors on all four sides, distributing wind loads across the entire roof rather than stressing fasteners at discrete points. Combined with proper fastening per ESR-1790 (ICC-ES code evaluation, reissued 2025), this engineering gives you peace of mind through nor'easters and unpredictable Rhode Island storms.

Can my house support a metal roof, or do I need expensive structural reinforcement?

No structural work is needed. Interlock's Mediterranean Tile profile is about 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile, and even the heftier Shake profile weighs just 0.58 lb/sq ft—most homes' framing easily carries this load. The light weight also means installation over your existing roof (when the substrate is sound), saving removal and disposal costs. Warwick homeowners regularly avoid expensive framing upgrades by choosing metal over traditional tile, which would require sister joists and additional bracing. This simplicity makes metal roofing practical for homes of any age.

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

Yes, when you compare lifetime costs, not just installation price. Asphalt typically lasts 15–20 years and requires periodic repair, tear-off, and landfill disposal; Interlock's Guardian warranty covers your lifetime as original owner with zero material prorating, then transfers to the next owner for 50 years total. That's one roof for life, versus two or three asphalt replacements. Current financing—no payments and no interest until Spring 2027, or 10% off installation—makes the initial investment manageable. Warwick's roughly 80 freeze-thaw days per year accelerate asphalt shingle deterioration; metal actually becomes more valuable in climates where traditional roofs fail faster.

How much upkeep does a metal roof really need in Warwick's weather?

Virtually none. Unlike asphalt (which sheds granules and cracks in freeze-thaw cycles), wood shake (which rots and splits), or tile (which requires mortar repairs), Interlock aluminum needs no seasonal maintenance. The Alunar 70% PVDF finish resists fading and chalking for 30 years, and the non-porous metal surface doesn't trap moisture or algae. Occasional debris clearing and gutter cleaning apply to any roof; the metal itself won't degrade. Warwick's combination of heavy rainfall (1,264 mm/year) and frequent freeze-thaw cycles would demand constant upkeep on traditional materials—aluminum eliminates that burden entirely, which also qualifies for CALGreen-verified reduced-maintenance status.

Does Warwick's hail risk mean I should worry about dents or damage to a metal roof?

Not at all. Interlock panels carry a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the Guardian warranty explicitly covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. Class 4 means the roof has been impact-tested with steel balls heavier than most hailstones encounter. Many insurance companies offer premium discounts for Class 4-rated roofs because claim rates are so low. While Rhode Island doesn't experience severe hail zones like the Plains states, Warwick's occasional severe weather and high wind gusts mean impact durability matters; metal roofing gives you an advantage most homeowners don't realize.

Who installs Interlock metal roofing in Warwick, and how long have they been serving the area?

Interlock Metal Roofing (New England) Inc. serves Warwick and the region with 26 years of local experience—they've been installing in Kent County since 1999, back when metal roofing was rare in residential neighborhoods. Their long tenure means they understand Warwick's climate challenges (1,264 mm rain, about 75 cm snow, 80 freeze-thaw days annually) and have installed roofs that are now 15+ years old and performing flawlessly. You're not working with a national franchise; you're working with neighbors who stand behind their installations and have the local reputation to maintain. Current financing options—no payments until Spring 2027 or 10% off installation—are available through them now.

Is a metal roof a good choice for Warwick’s climate?

Yes. Warwick 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.
