This is a roof we did in Bemidji Minnesota. It consists of Metal Sales Image II Standing Seam, Carlisle TPO, and Granite Black Shingles.
When Maryanne of West Fargo, ND, noticed issues with her roof, she called Vita Roofing for a free estimate and expert guidance. Our team began by setting up tarps to protect landscaping and contain debris before removing the existing roofing system down to the decking. Once exposed, we carefully inspected the deck and replaced any soft or damaged areas using OSB, CDX, or 1x6 deck boards to ensure a solid, reliable base for the new roof.
Next, we focused on building a high-performance underlayment system designed to handle extreme Midwest weather. Two rows of Sealoron XT Ice and Water Shield were installed along all eaves, with an additional row in the valleys for added protection. All decking seams were sealed with Sealoron XT Deck Tape, followed by Velora One Synthetic Underlayment over the remaining roof surface. Aluminum drip edge was installed along the perimeter and seam-taped at the eaves to direct water safely away from the home.
The final step was installing IKO Dynasty Shingles, a Class 3 impact-rated shingle featuring built-in algae resistance, increased thickness, and upgraded tar and nailing strips for superior wind and impact performance. Starter shingles, venting, penetration flashings, and hip and ridge components were all installed to manufacturer specifications. During the project, we also completed a leak repair by cutting four inches into the siding, installing new step flashing, adding and painting a trim board, and sealing the edge for a clean, watertight finish. After a detailed cleanup, Maryanne was left with a durable, professionally installed roofing system built to last.
When Bonnie reached out to Vita Roofing about her over 100-year-old home in New Rockford, ND, she knew the project would require more than a simple repair; it needed a complete transformation. After a thorough, free, no-obligation estimate, the team recommended a full re-deck and roof replacement to ensure long-term protection. From the very beginning, Vita Roofing approached the job with precision, carefully setting up tarps to protect the surrounding landscaping and structures while preparing for a full tear-off down to the decking.
Once the old materials were removed, the crew conducted a detailed inspection of the decking, replacing any weakened areas to create a solid foundation. They installed Sealoron XT Deck Tape along every seam for added moisture protection, followed by an EPDM membrane system complete with bonding adhesive, screws, plates, and tapered Poly ISO foam for optimal drainage and insulation. The finishing touch was the installation of IKO Dynasty Class 3 shingles in the elegant Biscayne color, featuring impact resistance, algae protection, and enhanced durability through upgraded tar and nailing strips. Backed by the Klaus 50-year No-Leak Warranty, Bonnie can now enjoy peace of mind knowing her historic home is protected for decades to come.
Jim recently chose Vita Roofing, a Klaus Larsen Roofing affiliate, to give his home a much-needed roof replacement. Our crew began by removing the old roofing system down to the decking. Once the structure was fully exposed, we inspected every board, replacing any that were weak or rotted. This step ensured a solid, long-lasting foundation for the new roofing system.
With the decking replaced & secured, our team began installing multiple layers of protection designed to keep Jim’s home safe from the elements. We used Sealoron XT Ice and Water on all eaves and valleys for leak prevention, followed by a Synthetic Roof Underlayment. This roofing is a superior, four-layer underlayment featuring a non-woven top surface that provides excellent walkability for installers and a grip-enhanced backing that holds securely to the decking. This added layer significantly strengthens the roof system by providing an extra shield against moisture and wind-driven rain. To finish the protective barrier, we added an aluminum drip edge around the perimeter, starter shingles, updated venting, and durable flashings.
For the finishing touches, we installed Class 3 Impact Rated IKO Dynasty shingles, known for their strength against hail, wind, and extreme weather, while also enhancing Jim’s home with lasting curb appeal. At the roof’s peaks, we used IKO Hip & Ridge shingles, a heavyweight option made from a resilient, inorganic glass base coated with weather-resistant asphalt. These shingles come pre-tapered, perforated, and surfaced with ceramic-colored granules to provide long-lasting protection against ultraviolet radiation while giving the roof a clean, polished look.
After a detailed cleanup, Jim’s home was left with a beautiful, high-performance roofing system built to endure, done the right way, The Klaus Roofing Way.
