Klaus Larsen LLC Before & After Photos

For this Wethersfield, CT project we tore off the existing roofing materials to be recycled. All debris was meticulously cleaned up, including nails which were picked up by a magnetic roller. In order to create a full moisture barrier, we installed three rows of Owens Corning Weatherlock G Ice & Water shield in addition to Synthetic Underlayment. This is a durable, tear-resistant material engineered to repel water and adhere to the roofing surface. We finished the project by installing a Copper Cat Algae Terminator on the rear roof above the porch. This double-sided copper strip prevents any growth of algae, moss or mold. 

The roof on this Wethersfield, Colonial was exceeding 20 years and was failing to protect the home. We totally removed the old shingles to be recycled at a roofs-to-roads asphalt recycling plant in Stratford, CT. The decking below was also inspected and revamped where necessary. An Owens Corning roofing system with estate gray shingles was installed, which includes a tear-resist underlayment over Ice & Water Shield. We eliminated a small vent at the roof/wall intersection over the garage and added a ridge vent in this area to allow maximum breathability.

Built in 1992, this colonial style home was in need of a new roof. Klaus Larsen began work right away. After tearing off two layers of existing roofing materials, the damaged plywood decking was replaced. Three rows of Owens Corning Weatherlock G Ice & Water Shield was installed. 5" of MicrcoGuard by Englert Gutter Guards were installed as well to prevent any debris from entering the gutters. Owens Corning Duration TruDefinition shingles, in the color of Estate Gray, were used on the roof. Klaus Larsen gave the home just what it needed to be protected for years to come!

This custom built brick colonial located in Wethersfield, CT was in desperate need of a new roof. The roof was 27 years old and original to the home, built in 1991. This home was having leaking issues and getting water spots on the ceilings. We first stripped the existing roof and hauled it to the Asphalt Roof Recycling Center located in Stratford, CT. Then, we replaced the rotted plywood decking and laid down Owens Corning Weatherlock G Ice & Water to ensure that any moisture stays out of the interior of the home. For shingles, we used Owens Corning Duration Shingles in the color Estate Gray. To top it off, we installed VentSure Ridge Vents to provide consistent top-notch attic ventilation to the home to prevent any mold from forming in the attic. 

The homeowner of this colonial in Wethersfield, CT contacted Klaus Larsen because of storm damage. The customer said that a recent storm knocked some shingles off of the roof and light was seen. After a sales representative from Klaus Larsen looked at the roof, it was determined that only a partial roof replacement was needed. After tearing off one layer of existing roofing materials on the damaged section of the roof, three rows of Ice & Water sheild was installed. White aluminum drip edge/rake flashing was installed along the outside perimeter of the roof. To finish the replacement, architectural-style asphalt shingles in the color of Colonial Slate, were used!
