Plus for ur information properly installed gutters must hold at leat 200lbs at the clipping or nailing point brackets or nails are spaced 1.2-2feet apart installed on a good solid base board. And even after that if they bend or coming off look into gutter guard that will make ur gutters 10-20 times stronger that u can easily walk on them plus debris won't get inside gutters.
u gotta do all the time snow falls don't just let it sit there. It's like cleaning ur walk way. If u don't ice forms. They even have a tool for sale at home depot for cleaning edges of ur roof from the ground And u really should figure that out b4 installing aluminum roof. So really there is no1 to blame. come on man. I see that u just complain about everything.
@ banjura let's just not talk about who finished school and who didn't ok? That has nothing to do with anything. I speak 3 languages and English is not my 1st language. Plus I'm not saying snow doesn't slide of alum roof. I know it does all I'm saying if u have big snow fall u need to clean edges of ur roof no mater what type of roof u got. My friend owns siding company and he deals with bend gutters all the time. So don't just blame alum roof for it. It's simple maintenance u gotta do all the
Lol ur pathetic ice and snow on your gutters and you are blaming ur roof? And saying alum roof is crap? Really? Wow. Name me one roof that will have 0 snow on it after snow fall. Ull always have ice there no meter what type of roof u have. Clean your gutters if u don't want crap happen to them. And clean snow of the end of your roof like every1 else does.
@antohich Please stop embarrasing yourself. Gutters are clean - aluminum is smooth, snow slides down aluminum when it warms up - hangs off gutter and pulls them down. Other roofs aren't smooth, snow doesn't slide. I can't explain it any more simply that that, And learn how to spell - its "matter" not "meter".
Here in Oregon in rain country, we've had no problems with our roof. Our house is the only one in our cul de sac with these right now, and we stand out. The aluminum roof is crisp, defined, and really adds a lot to our place. I'm not sorry we purchased ours. I'll worry about it in 2059.
i am glad you feel this way, unfortunately it won't last. Mine looks great also - tho it doesn't help when water is dripping on your bed. Wish you luck, you are going to need it.
Never had to do any repairs lifting shingles due to existing roof under aluminum interlock shingles. And here in Alberta temperature changes is common occurrence. I don't agree with snow/ice damaging ur gutters just bc u have alum roof. They require maintenance. If u have ice in them it has nothing to do with ur roof. At least no particles of alum roof are falling in ur gutters unlike other type of roofs. Plus snow and ice that builds up on alum roof way less then on other types of roofs.
Bet you don't have an interlock roof on your place. Of course you don't. So you have no idea whether snow builds up on the gutter and bends it cause the snow gets caught on it when it can't completely slide off. There is no defending this piece of crap, and you know it... so why bother? I have lived with this, so i don't care what you agree with or don't - everything i have said is fact.
If u guys have problems with interlock roof and nothing gets done after calling you local office I suggest contacting head office in Vancouver BC and explain what's going on. I'm an installer in Alberta and we take care of all the problems our costumers have b4 going to the next job.
Why we don't take ur old roof b4 installing interlock is bc building code says u can install it if layers of the existing roof are not grater then 2.
@skitzostudios It will normally take a few years when the metal lifts from hot summers and cold winters. Mine was good for about 6 years before the problems really started.
@iaceit In summer we get 80 (F) one or twice in the summer. But in winter like to day it is -11 (F). The lifetime warranty they gave us should help in case it stops working.... Here in quebec the law is always overprotecting the consumer. The people who installed it are not going to be out of buisiness soon...
We paid (and are still paying) 15k (CAN$). The installation was done by les Toit Permanents du Québec. For now I will get a friend of mine to fix it again and I'll bill the company. They will come back this summer to, hopefully, make it better.
My old roof was 30years old but was not leaking. We'll see what'll happen. The company that did the job will come back this summer to make it better (we hope)
@aacceerr808 Mine was a couple thousand less but was done in 1997. Good that the old roof wasn't leaking yet. I hope the old roof doesn't lift the Interlock if too much moisture gets past the aluminum. I wonder why they didn't remove it? From the web page of les Toit Permanents du Québec they look like installers of Interlock Roofs rather thank Interlock themselves, so that's a good thing. Good luck my friend. Hope it works out. for you.
I feel for you. In only a few years this roof will leak. The 50 year warranty means nothing. Expansion and contraction will lift the metal and water will penetrate inside your house. Snow will slide off the roof and will damage your gutters - they will leak soon as well if you have any snowfall. When the snow slides off your house will vibrate and wake you up in the middle of the night. But the worst part is you spent all that money and your EXPENSIVE metal roof will leak. Mine does. Good luck
@badjura Hi, your message is scary. I got an aluminum roof by interlock. But they put mine on top of the old one, maybe that help to keep us dry. Snow does fall but the gutter hold well.
My issue is with soffit ans fascia. Year after year it falls down. The company (Les toits Permanent du Québec) came back each year to fix it. But it like they are unable to make it last a full winter. I'm far from their office and I belive this is why the did a crappy job.
@aacceerr808 You are lucky in the fact that they actually came out to 'attempt' to repair your soffit and fascia issue. 99.9% of folks with an Interlock roof will never get that luxury. I had to coat my entire roof (twice) with a commercial grade roof coating as well as seam tape over all large seams. It look well over 3 months! Interlock should not have installed their crap over your old roof in the first place, but in this case, dependening on its shape, might help. How much was your roof?
@badjura Ya they try. They are the only one who install interlock roof in the province of quebec. I wrote a review explaining was happen but they didn't publish it.
I'm hopping to get a full winter without loosing anything..... maybe next year!

Bet they don't have this piece of crap Interlock/Future roof where ever you are from.
You have made my point trying to defend this junk so vigorously, so thanks for your help.

@LUVallova As the film shows, it was installed. We have had no leaks or problems. Where we live, we get a lot of rain. Our roof works just fine.
