Before & After Photos

Justin in Coventry, CT, reached out after a recent roof inspection uncovered several concerns involving both the roofing system and attic ventilation. The inspector noted possible leaks near the lower sections of the roof and signs that past ice damming may have caused damage over time. 

After evaluating the home, our team recommended a full roof replacement along with updated attic insulation and ventilation improvements to help correct the underlying issues. Poor airflow in an attic can trap heat and moisture, which often leads to problems like mold, ice dams, higher energy bills, and premature roof deterioration. We removed the existing roofing system and installed SealoronXT Ice & Water Shield in vulnerable areas to help protect against future water intrusion caused by ice buildup and severe weather. VeloraONE Roof Underlayment was installed across the roof deck, along with SealoronXT Deck Tape to seal the plywood seams and add another layer of protection. To help the attic ventilate properly again, we addressed the airflow issues and completed new attic insulation work designed to improve energy efficiency and reduce temperature buildup inside the home. The project was finished with IKO Dynasty shingles in Granite Black, giving the home a sharp, updated appearance while providing long-term durability and protection. With the new roof and attic improvements complete, Justin’s home is now better protected against leaks, moisture, and future ice dam issues while allowing the attic to function the way it should.

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!
