Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Kennedy Heights, Wisconsin
| 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:
The Interlock crew was able to take some extra time to coordinate with another contractor for solar installation. As a result, the final the result looks great and very functional. The materials used are very high quality, and they worked efficiently and cleaned up when finished.
I love the roof! It looks great, and the squirrels that we’re crawling all over my old asphalt roof slide right off it. The snow slides off, too. I hope to get some $500 referrals. The crew was terrific, hardworking, courteous, polite, and clean.
25 years of saving money in a C.D. has well paid off for me. I endeavored to save money for a high-quality roof; not wanting to pay for a substandard roofing system. I no longer wanted to have asphalt shingles. Interlock Roofing is the Crème de La of all roofing. One day in June of 2014, I took one of my long walks. I came to a perfect standstill gazing up at the roof of a home I had often passed. It had a new hairdo. This elegant and beautiful roof (dark gray " data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">slate) certainly wasn’t asphalt shingles. What could it be? I decided to find out and knocked on the side door. I said to the man who came to the door, “where did you ever get such beautiful roofing?” He then explained that he was thrilled with his recent purchase of Interlock Roofing that was installed in early spring. He immediately told me that it was a “lifetime” roof that was not only very energy efficient but was constructed as a high-impact roof which could better handle nasty storms. He explained to me that I could get rid of my roofing heat tapes because there would be no more ice damming that I would have to be concerned about. Then he added with a twinkle in his eye that I could watch my neighbors struggle with raking snow off their roofs and know that I would never have to stand out in the cold doing this task. With great pride, he told me that Interlock Roofing would look as great as it does today as it would many years down the road because the color never fades. I said, “Who do I contact to get this kind of roof?” He gave me “Greg Weber’s telephone number. He also told me of another home in the area that has had the roof on for 7 years that I could go look at. I got in my car the next day and went over to that home and spoke to the owner, and asked him if he was satisfied with the roof. He answered, “I’m 100% plus satisfied!” WOW! That’s as good as it gets. The rest is history because I made an appointment to see Greg Weber. This week of August 18-20 installers came and installed my new roof on both the house and the garage. These men were by far the best men you could get. Would you like to know why? It’s because of their work ethics. They were polite, accommodating, and extremely hard-working. It was evident that they certainly knew what they were doing every step of the way. When they were finished the end product of their job was both elegant and beautiful! I hope people will take time to consider getting Interlock Roofing, which in my opinion is the best choice they could make if they desire to have a quality roof. Also, I appreciate buying from a company that takes so much pride in what they are doing. Interlock Roofing Speaks for itself when you see it.
Customer Satisfaction 5/5 Builders Permit was not filled correctly with the City of Madison. Must be corrected by 04/29/10. Satisfied with the installation and the product. Has a great look from the street.
Drip, drip, drip. This is not a sound you want to hear at 3:30 am… in bed… coming from your attic… in the dead of winter. A quick peek in the attic confirmed my worst fears, the ice dam on the roof was allowing melted water to seep through the crappy asphalt shingles and into the house. We called a local contractor and had the ice dam removed, but this didn’t fix the underlying problem that our current roof was cheap and damaged. My wife and I moved into a beautiful three-story brick Tudor on Madison’s near west side in the fall of 06′. It was perfect in that it had been beautifully remodeled with gorgeous woodwork, marble, and stunning attention to detail, with the exception of the roof. We had decided that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this was the house we were going to stay in until retirement, so why not invest in a metal roof. After a couple of weeks of research and interviewing, we settled on Interlock. Part of the choice was made on the quality of the product, and part was made on the salesmanship of the rep, Chuck. Work started and except for some problems with the weather, things progressed smoothly. We were especially impressed with the steps the crew took in regard to safety, and our stay-at-home neighbor told us about how exciting the crew was, “you’re definitely getting your money's worth,” was her exact quote. At the end of the job, the crew even emptied all the trash we had pulled out of the attic for us. Now that’s service! After everything is said and done, we’ve been able to cap off our gorgeous house with an equally gorgeous roof.

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Kennedy Heights
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Kennedy Heights, Wisconsin. 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 Kennedy Heights.
How does a metal roof handle Kennedy Heights' annual snowfall and freeze-thaw cycles?
Aluminum sheds snow and ice far more effectively than asphalt because its smooth, hard surface won't trap moisture or degrade under the area's 84 freeze-thaw days per year. The four-way interlocking panels are warranted to 120 mph wind speeds, so the weight of about 120 cm of annual snow won't stress the fastening system. Unlike wood shakes that crack and curl when wet, or asphalt that deteriorates through repeated freezing, aluminum's oxide layer self-heals when scratched by ice movement, staying intact through decades of Wisconsin winters.
Why does an aluminum roof never rust, and why does that matter in Wisconsin?
Aluminum cannot rust because it contains no iron—the element that oxidizes and corrodes in wet climates. Instead, a microscopic oxide layer forms on the surface and self-heals when scratched, meaning exposure to Dane County's 781 mm annual rainfall won't trigger the rust cycle that weakens steel roofing over time. The Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon finish is applied to both sides of every panel and warranted 30 years against chalking, adding a second corrosion barrier. You're buying a roof that won't weep rust stains into your gutters or weaken at seams.
Will freeze-thaw damage aluminum roofing like it damages asphalt and wood?
No. Aluminum roofing is immune to the moisture damage that freeze-thaw cycles inflict on asphalt and wood shakes. Kennedy Heights experiences about 84 freeze-thaw days annually, during which water enters asphalt shingles, freezes, expands, and tears the binder. Aluminum doesn't absorb water, so it expands and contracts uniformly without cracking or curling. The 3105-H24 aluminum alloy (ASTM B209 roofing grade) and dual-sided Alunar coating mean your roof survives 20+ Wisconsin winters without the degradation that forces asphalt replacements every 15–20 years.
How much lighter is an aluminum metal roof than traditional tile, and do I need to reinforce my roof structure?
Interlock's Mediterranean Tile profile is about 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile, installing at just 0.59 lb per square foot—roughly the weight of two sheets of drywall over your entire roof. Because of this extraordinary light weight, most homes don't require structural reinforcement, and installation can often proceed directly over an existing asphalt roof. Compare that to traditional tile at 15+ lb per square foot: you'd need costly framing work. This weight advantage means faster installation, lower labor costs, and no disruption to your home's foundation.
Can a metal roof withstand the wind gusts that Kennedy Heights gets?
Yes. The four-way interlocking panel design is warranted to resist sustained winds up to 120 mph, and Dane County's typical gusts reach about 104 km/h (65 mph). The interlocking edges lock each panel to its neighbors, preventing wind from lifting corners or edges the way it can with shingles. This mechanical connection, plus the lightweight aluminum construction, means your roof stays intact during spring thunderstorms and winter gusts that might lift asphalt shingles. The Guardian warranty explicitly covers wind resistance when panels are installed to specification.
What's the hail rating on Interlock metal roofing, and can it help me save on insurance?
Interlock achieves UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the warranty covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. Class 4 means the roof resists impact damage better than 99% of residential products. Some insurance carriers offer discounts (typically 15–30%) for Class 4-rated metal roofs because claims are rare. Call your agent with the UL 2218 documentation; many insurers will recognize the durability and lower your premiums, offsetting some of the initial material cost over the 50-year transfer warranty term.
How long does installation take, and can it be installed over my existing roof?
Installation typically takes 3–7 days for a full residential home, depending on roof size and complexity. Because aluminum panels are so light (Slate at 0.41 lb/sq ft), most homes can skip the expensive tear-off and install directly over the existing asphalt roof—reducing labor, disposal costs, and job-site disruption. Your installer measures the roof, snaps chalk lines to align the interlocking panels, and fastens them to the deck. No special framing is needed. Interlock has served the region since 2001, so the local crew knows Kennedy Heights homes and building codes, and can schedule around Wisconsin's weather windows.
What does the Interlock lifetime warranty actually cover, and how long will the roof really last?
The Guardian Warranty is a lifetime limited, non-prorated material warranty for the original owner—covering rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance. It transfers once to the next owner, giving them 50 years of coverage from completion. Because aluminum doesn't rust, doesn't rot, and the Alunar coating is warranted 30 years against fading, the roof typically outlasts 2–3 asphalt replacements. Many Interlock roofs installed in 1998 are still on homes worldwide, from coastal salt-air homes to Antarctica. You're buying your last residential roof.
Is metal roofing better for the environment than asphalt shingles?
Substantially. Aluminum roofing is approximately 95% recyclable at end of life, whereas asphalt shingles end up in landfills—millions of tons annually in North America. Because Interlock roofs last 50+ years and don't require tear-offs every 15–20 years, you eliminate the cycle of removing and discarding old asphalt. Kennedy Heights receives about 3,089 sunshine hours per year; energy-efficient colors with 0.84 thermal emissivity and up to 0.55 initial solar reflectance also reduce cooling load and peak-demand strain on the grid. You're choosing a roof that works with the environment, not against it.
Is a metal roof worth the upfront cost compared to asphalt over the long term?
Metal roof cost-per-year is dramatically lower over a 50-year horizon. Asphalt averages $8,000–$12,000 installed and lasts 15–20 years; you'll replace it 2–3 times by year 50, costing $24,000–$36,000 plus labor inflation and disposal. A quality metal roof costs more upfront but lasts 50+ years, requires minimal maintenance, and doesn't need a tear-off. Add the one-time 50-year transfer warranty, potential insurance discounts (UL 2218 Class 4), and no emergency repairs from freeze-thaw damage or wind lift, and the total cost of ownership favors metal decisively. You're replacing a consumable with a permanent one.
