The flashing here was in remiss, allowing water to seep in and cause damage. We applied wood shakes sourced from a cedar mill in British Columbia, and made sure the flashing around the chimney was renewed. Klaus Larsen works with all aspects of your roof.

We used architectural-style asphalt Tan shingles on this Colchester, Connecticut home. High quality materials that last are a high priority for us.
The entire front porch roof deck was treated with Ice & Water shield and we repaired the damaged collar ties in the attic. Collar ties are structurally important because they prevent the rafters of your attic from sagging. Uneven weight on top of your roof, such as large loads of snow, can cause them to sag and spread apart. They are recommended for roofs with up to approximately 18 foot spans. We also removed all existing chimney flashing and replaced it with new lead flashing.
For this home in Colchester, the entire roof was replaced. The homeowner was thrilled with the speed of the process and our customer service! Call Klaus Larsen for any of your roof repair and replacement needs!
At this contemporary ranch home in Colchester, CT we tore off the two layers of existing roofing materials. We put in new brown aluminum drip edge/rake flashing along the entire outside perimeter of the roof. To make sure no moisture passes through to the chimney, we inserted new lead chimney flashing along the entire chimney perimeter. What made this home unique is that it had cedar siding on the outer face of the home. We removed the existing ship lap cedar siding from around the upper roof and installed new cedar siding with new rake and fascia boards.
