Roof Replacement Before & After Photos

This Tudor style home located in Bloomfield, CT has just gone under a complete roof replacement. When we arrived at the job site we first stripped the existing roof and replaced 7 sheets of damaged plywood decking. To keep out any outside moisture from coming into the interior of the home we laid down Ice & Water Shield. For the new shingles, we used architectural-style asphalt shingles in the color Teak. To top it off we installed VentSure Ridge Vent to provide consistent top-notch ventilation to the attic. 

This 1900 Victorian style home located in Bloomfield, Connecticut was completely stripped of its roof which had water damage, and replaced with a new Klaus Larsen roofing system. We first started by stripping two layers of existing roofing materials and replacing all damaged plywood decking. We then installed three rows of Ice & Water barrier from all eaves, valleys, chimneys etc. For shingles, we installed grey asphalt which includes a 10 year Algae-Resistance Limited Warranty and a 130 MPH Wind Resistance Limited Warranty. We finished by removing and replacing flashing on the chimney with new lead flashing.  

Here was a hipped roof Colonial in Cromwell, CT that had 25 year old shingles. This type of roof slopes down at all sides, toward the walls of the home. It is a great design style, however gutters are needed on each and every side. The wood in the attic was exhibiting signs of moisture permeation, from two laters of deteriorated shingles which had been installed on top of one another. There was some visible black algae streaking on these shingles as well. We installed a single layer of Owens Corning shingles, nailed into both a tear resistant underlayment, as well as Ice & Water shield. As a part of this job, we kept the attic turbine exhaust on and flashed around it. A debris receptacle is provided for all jobs, and all asphalt shingles that we remove are recycled. We also ensure that every single nail  is removed from the property. 

After tearing off one existing layer of shingles, the plywood decking was completed stripped and replaced with new material. Three rows of Owens Corning Weatherlock G Ice & Water shield was installed to protect any moisture from entering the home. Owens Corning Duration TruDefinition shingles, in the color of Sierra Gray, were installed. Flashing on the chimney was replaced. An existing vent boot was replaced, in the color of Black. This home is now fully protected inside and out because of Klaus Larsen!
