Question:

Could you please provide specific information regarding Interlock Industries aluminum roofing. Both pros & cons if possible.... We live in Maine and have been approached by them about replacing our roof. Thank you.

Answer:

Hello, In my opinion an aluminum roof is not an option in a climate where ice is a factor. Aluminum is very soft and prone to damage. I have inspected aluminum roofs that have been damaged by sliding ice. I will not comment on specific brand names. Matt Churchill CP Roofing & Sheet Metal of Ottawa Ltd. 613-821-4455
