Stanley in Kensington, CT, had been keeping a close eye on his roof, which was about 25 years old. Recently, he noticed mold growth on the backside, heavy black streaking, and gutters filling with granules from the aging shingles, all signs that the roof was nearing the end of its life. He reached out to Klaus Larsen Roofing for a consultation, and after reviewing the condition, we recommended a full roof replacement to protect the home from further damage. Our crew stripped the old shingles, sealed the roof deck with SealoronXT Ice & Water and VeloraONE Underlayment, and taped all seams with SealoronXT Deck Tape for added protection. Finally, we installed IKO Dynasty shingles in Biscayne, giving the home a fresh, vibrant new look with superior defense against algae and streaking. Now, Stanley’s home not only looks refreshed but is also fully secured with a roofing system built to last.
Here was a gorgeous Colonial in East Granby, CT that had been suffering from an underperforming roof. Algae and moss were making a home in the seams between the 3-Tab shingles, which do not overlap like the architectural style that we work with. The underlying structure which the roof is supported by, otherwise called the decking, was refreshed with new CDX plywood. To prevent any stealth leaking we also re-flashed a medium-sized chimney. The shingles are made of an algae-resistant material, so this house will look (and perform) great for years to come!
At this home located in East Granby, CT, the homeowner was having issues with leaking skylights within the roof on the home. When we further inspected the roof we were able to determine that it needed to be completely replaced. We first stripped the existing roof and hauled the old shingles to the Asphalt Roof Recycling Center in Stratford, CT. We then replaced any damaged plywood decking to protect the home from any outside moisture and new shingles. In addition, we installed 3 brand new Velux Fixed Deck Mount Skylights with a 20-Year No Leak Warranty. This homeowner can now face the upcoming winter months with complete peace of mind.
This West Hartford house underwent several renovations, and we were enthusiastic about providing a roof to top off this home makeover project. These shingles were the perfect touch for their remodeling.
This ranch home, in West Hartford, was experiencing issues with ice dams over the bay windows and soffits. We also added a ridge vent and updated the interior insulation, to make this roof that much more resilient.
