Roof before installing a Klaus Larsen Roofing System. Every homeowner is assigned a dedicated Klaus Larsen Roofing project manager. The on site project manager will tend to you and your project, before, during, and after the job to ensure you are completely thrilled with our work.
Protecting Your Property
How we protect the homeowner's property during a roof replacement is the first thing that sets Klaus Roofing Systems apart. We protect the homeowner's siding, windows, landscaping, and driveways.
Old Roofing Stripped
Stripping the old roof is necessary to do the job right and have a long lasting quality result.
Examining Existing Wood Decking
Once the old roof is stripped off, we can see the condition of the roof deck. Sections of the rotted roof sheathing are replaced and existing decking is renailed with the Ring Shank Nails, a cross between a nail and a screw. These nails are higher quality and won't come out in high winds--it's the "Klaus Roofing Way!"
Only the Best for Your Roof
Our Klaus Roofing System SealoronXT Ice & Water self-sealing membrane and high-performance Velora One synthetic underlayment protects the home in the harshest of conditions. We tape all plywood decking seams with our all-weather SealoronXT Deck Tape to add an extra layer of protection from water entering the home. Klaus Roofing System Drip and Rake Edge trims were installed which are heavier and 50% wider than what other contractors use. We aim todo everything better for long lasting and reliable performance.

Nails Matter
When the big storms come with driving, whipping winds, the nails are what holds the shingles to the roof. At Klaus Roofing Systems, we pay careful attention to what nails we use, how, and when. We use Ring Shank Nails, a cross between a nail and a screw. These nails are higher quality and won't come out in high winds. And we use 6 nails per shingle where the industry standard is just 4 nails-it's the Klaus Roofing Way!
Chimney Flashing
We also removed and replaced flashing on the chimney with new lead flashing. Flashing chimneys properly to prevent leaks over many years takes skill and the proper materials. Klaus Roofing Systems has you covered. The Klaus Roofing Way provides three levels of protection from water in all climates and atmospheric conditions, from thunderstorms, to snow and ice, to wind driven rain.
New Roof with IKO Dynasty Shingles
We love how the IKO Dynasty Performance laminated shingles enhanced the appearance of this home. The homeowner chose the IKO Dynasty Shingles in the color Driftshake. The deep shadow bands and color gradations combined to create texture and visual appeal.
Hips and ridges
Hips and ridges are covered with purpose-made shingles, matching the homeowner's shingle color of choice. This area of the roof is subject to lots of wind, but we get it right to protect all aspects of the home's roof! Ridge caps are made for the purpose with nail reinforcement strop and sealant in the right places.
Skylights
We also replaced the skylights with brand new Velux skylight swith Laminated, Low-E, "Clean, Safe, Quiet" glass with Velux factory flashing kit. It's ideal to install brand new skylights at the same time as a new roof install as it's very difficult to re-flash an existing skylight.
Roof Boots
What are roof boots? Every house has at least one pipe penetration for the plumbing vent. We replaced all old boots with Klaus Larsen Systems special heavy-duty boots that will last as long as the roof does.
RainDrop Gutter Guard
We installed our RainDrop Gutter Guard to their existing gutters. Why RainDrop? Gutters are supposed to take water away from the home. If they are clogged, water overflows and ends up running down the side of the home and eventually causing foundation problems. RainDrop provides gutter protection like no other gutter guard available. Every aspect of the RainDrop Gutter Guard is essential in it's goal to provide a maintenance free & self-cleaning gutter protection system, far more advanced than anything available on the market today. RainDrop fits on every home as it's the most versatile gutter guard available. The RainDrop Gutter Guard can handle any amount of water from the worst downpour. Even high-volume valleys are no problem, which is where other products tend to struggle. RainDrop is known for it's unbeatable performance and durability and is made from its own unique blend of polypropylene.This special blend of polypropylene and UV stabilizers can and will withstand the harshest storms, hottest climates and coldest seasons imaginable.
