Before & After Photos

A detached three car garage in Durham, CT was desperately in need of a roof replacement from moisture causing rapid algae growth. 

Gerald Reen in Durham, CT, wanted to replace the roof on his rental property, including both the house and garage. Our team at Klaus Larsen Roofing completed a full roof replacement, starting by removing the old materials and replacing any rotted plywood with new boards. We sealed the deck with SealoronXT Deck Tape, applied SealoronXT Ice & Water in vulnerable areas, and covered the rest of the roof with VeloraONE Roof Underlayment for complete leak protection. To finish the job, we installed IKO Dynasty shingles in Summit Gray, giving this sloped roof a clean, updated look. Now, with a new shingle roofing system installed by a trusted roofing company, Gerald’s property is fully protected and built to last for decades. The Klaus Roofing Way!

Here was a hipped roof Colonial in Cromwell, CT that had 25 year old shingles. This type of roof slopes down at all sides, toward the walls of the home. It is a great design style, however gutters are needed on each and every side. The wood in the attic was exhibiting signs of moisture permeation, from two laters of deteriorated shingles which had been installed on top of one another. There was some visible black algae streaking on these shingles as well. As a part of this job, we kept the attic turbine exhaust on and flashed around it. A debris receptacle is provided for all jobs, and all asphalt shingles that we remove are recycled. We also ensure that every single nail  is removed from the property. 

After tearing off one existing layer of shingles, the plywood decking was completed stripped and replaced with new material. New shingles were installed. Flashing on the chimney was replaced. An existing vent boot was replaced, in the color of Black. This home is now fully protected inside and out because of Klaus Larsen!

Seeking a contractor to carry out a roof replacement, owners of this 1987 contemporary-style home trusted Klaus Larsen Roofing with the job. We started by tearing off 2 layers of existing roofing materials, as well as replacing 5 layers of damaged plywood decking. Next, we installed three rows of Ice & Water Barrier near roof valleys, eaves, chimneys, etc. For shingles, we installed Duration TruDefinition Shingles in the color Slatestone Gray. These shingles included an Algae-Resistance Limited Warranty as well as a 130 MPH Wind Resistance Warranty. Lastly, we installed a mounted Velux FS Skylight. This attractive home is now complete with its new Klaus Larsen roof installment!
