Klaus Larsen Roofing Before & After Photos

Roof was roughly 35 years old on an older home. As Summer approached, the kind homeowners reached out to have us redo their entire roof. As their last part of remolding their home, they were ecstatic to see the finished roof and amazing shingles. 

Matt in Jewett City, CT, reached out to us at Klaus Larsen Roofing after noticing water spots forming on the ceiling of his master bedroom. Concerned about potential leaks and long-term damage, he wanted a professional inspection to get a clear answer on what was going on. Our sales inspector came by to assess the situation and walk Matt through the best solutions for his home. After an evaluation, we discovered that his aging roof and insufficient attic insulation were contributing to the problem. Matt decided to move forward with a full roof replacement and attic insulation upgrade. Now, with a brand-new Klaus Larsen roof and improved insulation, Matt can rest easy knowing his home is protected from future leaks and heat loss.

Here was a ranch home in Stonington, CT which had a lot of moss and lichen build up on its shingles. Both moss and lichen spores love to take hold and grow on the north side of trees, as well as the shady areas of roofs. Older, 3-tab shingles, like the ones used on this home, were not designed with any type of resistance to this type of fungal growth. Power washing and chemical solvents are not recommended as they will often actually take granules of asphalt off, and can even void some insurance plans! The amount of shade on this roof is still going to be conducive to moss growth, however the Owens Corning Duration shingles we install are manufactured to ward off algae.

The owners of this beautiful, coastal home in Stonington, CT called Klaus Larsen for a roof replacement on their home and garage. First, the Klaus Larsen team tore off a layer of shingles. Next, the damaged roof decking was replaced with new plywood. Three rows of Owens Corning Weatherlock G Ice & Water Shield was installed, along with Owens Corning Duration Shingles, in the color Brownwood. An Owens Corning VentSure Ridge Vent was replaced and installed, allowing these homeowners to feel secure during the rainy days.

We replaced the backside of the roof on this detached garage because they were having leaking issues due to their old vent boot! They figured they may as well replace the whole back of the roof while they were at it.
