Before & After Photos

We replaced this 27-year-old roof in Ivoryton, CT and gave it a whole new look with the new color choice!

Callie contacted Klaus Larsen Roofing for help with her newly purchased home. She was informed that the roof had been damaged by previous pine trees that lined the property. There was also plywood attached to the ceiling indicating a leak at some point; however, she was unsure. Klaus Larsen Roofing provides free estimates and quotes, and we are always happy to help! Callie decided to move forward with a full Klaus Larsen Roof Replacement, and with our 50-year warranty, this will be the last roof she will have to worry about! Callie chose the color Granite Black for her new IKO Architectural Dynasty shingles, which will stay looking new for years to come. This before-and-after shows the damage caused by the trees and how we were able to repair it by stripping off the old decking and replacing it with new plywood. With new roofing, new chimney flashing, and striking new shingles, this transformation is amazing! The Klaus Roofing Way!

This Manchester, CT roof was 23 years old and beginning to show signs of its age, with algae streaks and prevalent discoloration. The overhauled roof came equipped with all new aluminum seamless gutters & downspouts, as well as the 'seal, defend and breathe. Balanced attic ventilation, protection against nature's elements and a water-proof barrier are all components that must work in conjunction with one another, to be a functioning roof system. Every Klaus Larsen roof is installed with strict adherence to this criterion.

Whether your home is small or large the time comes when the roof needs to be replaced. It could be because the roof is leaking or you it may be that the roof is just old and you don't want it to start leaking. This home had a roof had 3-tab shingles that were over 20 years old which is about how long a 3-tab shingle will last. By this point, the shingles had become completely blackened by algae. Our crews came and started around 7:00 am. They attached tarps to the roof edge before tearing the roof off. Then they removed the old skylight and covered the opening with plywood. Next, we installed self-sealing Ice & Water barrier nine feet up the roof. The crew also installed it around the dormer and in the valleys to protect those vulnerable areas. Above the Ice & Water, the Synthetic underlayment was nailed down. 

This 21-year-old home needed a new roof replacement and had damage from ice dams this past winter. To ensure that no moisture can pass through this roof, we installed three rows of Ice & Water Shield and ProArmor Synthetic Underlayment. To provide top-notch attic ventilation we put in a new VentSure Ridge Vent. This home will no longer have to worry about any future ice dams this upcoming winter season.
