This before-and-after photo from Chester, CT offers a close-up view of the details of this roof replacement. In the before image, the shingles are covered in a layer of white staining, with the color visibly leaking down the roof, creating an unsightly and unwanted appearance. This is certainly not the image the homeowners wanted for their property. During the roof replacement, our skilled team removed the old, worn flashing around the chimney. We then installed an Ice & Water seal around the chimney, ensuring a tight, leak-free barrier. Afterward, we applied new, high-quality aluminum flashing to provide both protection and aesthetic appeal. The after photo highlights the progress of the installation, showcasing the clean, sleek look of the newly flashed chimney. Not only does it elevate the appearance of the roof, but it also offers long-lasting protection, ensuring no future leaks. This transformation is a testament to the quality craftsmanship and attention to detail you can expect from Klaus Larsen Roofing!
At this 1990s home located in Somers, CT we completely stripped off the existing roof and replaced it with a new roofing system. We first tore off the existing shingles and roofing material and hauled them to the Asphalt Roof Recycling Center to be turned into asphalt pavement for roads.
We then replaced any damaged plywood decking and laid down Ice & Water Shield to create a moisture barrier between the decking and the shingles. For even more protection, we installed a synthetic underlayment, a durable, tear-resistant material that is engineered to repel water and adhere to the roofing surface. To top it off, we replaced the old chimney flashing with new lead flashing and installed a VentSure Ridge Vent to provide consistent attic ventilation to the home.

William in Somers, CT, reached out to us for a quote to replace his 32-year-old roof that had clearly reached the end of its lifespan. He wanted not just a new roof, but a fresh look that would make his home stand out. Our team installed a full roof replacement using IKO Dynasty shingles in the vibrant Monaco Red color. The new shingles gave his home a bold, updated appearance while providing lasting protection and strength, a perfect combination of style and durability.
This ranch home in Marlborough, CT had a roof that was about 25 years old with excessive leaking around the skylights. We stripped the old shingles, to start fresh at the decking. All of our disposed of asphalt is brought to a facility to be processed into recycled road asphalt. The ProArmor Synthetic Underlayment is installed beneath the shingles, which is another layer of water repellant material. We replaced the skylights with Velux Skylights, and flashed them to prevent any future leaking.
