Klaus Larsen Roofing Before & After Photos

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.

In Pomfret Center, CT, we recently completed a roof replacement for an outbuilding with a roof that had exceeded 20 years of age. Over the years, wear and tear had taken its toll, leaving the structure vulnerable to leaks and weather damage. Our team installed durable IKO shingles, paired with high-performance materials like Velora One Roof Underlayment and Sealoron XT Ice & Water Shield, to ensure long-lasting protection. This upgraded roofing system not only enhances the outbuilding’s durability but also boosts its appearance. Whether it’s a home or an outbuilding, a reliable roof is essential to maintaining the integrity of your property.

This house in Woodstock CT was in need of a new roof. To start the process we tore off and disposed of one layer of existing roofing material, and replaced 5 sheets of damaged plywood decking. We installed 2 rows of ice & water near all roof eaves, valleys, chimneys etc. In terms of shingles, we installed IKO Cambridge Shingles in the color Dual Brown. We installed a brand new ridge vent to ensure consistent attic ventilation. We finished the job by removing and replacing the existing chimney flashing with brand new lead flashing. This house is now complete thanks to Klaus Larsen Roofing!
