Gorgeous home in Middle Haddam. We are glad we could put a Klaus on their house!
This single-family colonial style home was in need of a new roof and trusted Klaus Larsen Roofing with the job. We started by tearing off and disposing of all roofing materials and installing new plywood decking over the existing structural framing of the home. We installed 2 rows of ice & water barrier near all eaves, valleys, chimneys etc. In terms of shingles, we installed Cambridge Architectural Shingles in the color Dual Grey. Lastly, we removed and replaced all flashing on the chimney with brand new flashing, to prevent leakage. This house is now complete thanks to Klaus Larsen Roofing!
This one-family colonial home in Manchester, CT was due for a roof replacement. To start this project we tore off and disposed of one layer of asphalt roofing. We then inspected the roof decking and replaced 5 sheets of damaged plywood decking. We installed two rows of Ice & Water Barrier and then a layer of Synthetic Underlayment to repel water and protect from inclement weather. For shingles, we installed a Klaus Larsen Roofing System using IKO Dynasty Shingles in the Granite Black colorway. To finish off this project we installed a new chimney flashing and vent pipe boot. This colonial home is now complete thanks to Klaus Larsen Roofing!
To begin this job we started by tearing away one layer of existing roofing material. Next, we evaluated the condition of the roof decking and determined that there were 3 sheets that were damaged and needed replacing. After the sheets of plywood decking were replaced, we then installed two rows of IKO Storm Shield Ice & Water Barrier as well as a synthetic underlayment to provide the home protection from the elements. For shingles, we installed a Klaus Larsen Roofing System using IKO Dynasty Architectural Shingles in the Atlantic Blue colorway. To finish the job we installed a ridge vent to maintain consistent attic ventilation and we also installed a brand new vent pipe boot.
This homeowner in Manchester, CT reached out to us about a roof cleaning. What is the Klaus Roofing Way to clean a home's roof? We use a soft wash cleaning method, which means that we do not power wash! Power washing will remove granules from roofing shingles, significantly reducing the life of your roof. Our goal is to extend the life of the roof by removing harmful organic growth from roofing shingles. We begin by protecting your home's landscape. We then apply our roof cleaning solution made up of household cleaners and surfactants. This solution immediately starts to work as it kills mold, mildew, algae, moss, or any other organic growth on your roof surface. Our solution is then left on the roof surface to ensure all organic growth has been killed down to the roots, meaning it's gone for good.
From there, we simply let mother nature take its course. Over the next 14 days, the rainwater will naturally rinse off all dead organic matter that was killed off during our soft wash process.
