Donald, a homeowner in Manchester, CT, had a barn roof that had seen better days. At 25 years old, the roof was showing significant wear and tear, as evident from the before photo, where its condition made it clear that it was in dire need of attention. Recognizing the importance of protecting his barn and everything it housed, Donald decided it was time for a lasting solution. He contacted Klaus Larsen Roofing, and our team got to work right away. We began by carefully stripping away the old, deteriorated roof to ensure a clean foundation. Next, we installed our roofing system, which includes SealoronXT Ice&Water for a watertight seal and VeloraOne Roof Underlayment for leak protection. Finally, a brand-new Klaus roof was installed, designed to withstand the elements and keep the barn secure for years to come. The result? A durable, beautiful roof that not only restores the barn’s functionality but enhances its appearance, all completed with The Klaus Roofing Way!
A homeowner in Manchester, CT, was dealing with a persistent roof leak in their kitchen every time it rained heavily. Concerned about the growing damage and the need for a long-term solution, they turned to Klaus Larsen Roofing for help. After assessing the roof, it became clear that a full roof replacement was the best course of action to ensure their home remained safe and protected. Our team installed a durable, high-quality shingle roofing system, complete with Velora One Roof Underlayment and Sealoron XT Ice & Water Shield for added protection. Now, their home is safeguarded against future leaks, and the new roof has enhanced the overall appearance of their property. The homeowner can rest easy knowing their kitchen and the rest of their home are fully protected, rain or shine.
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.
