Metal Roof Replacement in Chester, CT

This photo shows the barn's roof before any repairs, with old, worn-out shingles and moss growing across the surface. The moss had spread over time, making the roof look neglected and run-down. It was clear that the roof needed attention, both to improve its appearance and to prevent any further damage.

At this stage of the project, the crew needed to remove the old shingles to start with a clean slate. Upon stripping the roof, they discovered skip sheathing underneath, which required a layer of plywood for proper support. In this photo, you can see the crew installing the plywood boards, which will provide a solid base for the nails and ensure a secure attachment when the new shingles are installed. This step is crucial to guarantee the long-term durability of the roof.

At this point in the project, the protective layers are being applied to the roof deck. First, the crew uses SealoronXT Deck Tape to seal the plywood seams, allowing the wood to breathe while preventing any water from seeping through. Next, SealoronXT Ice & Water is installed in vulnerable areas, like the roof's edges, to offer extra protection against moisture. Finally, the VeloraOne Roof Underlayment is applied to the rest of the deck, creating a strong barrier to prevent leaks and add an extra layer of defense beneath the shingles. These layers work together to ensure long-lasting protection for the roof.

Now, the crew is in the final stages of the project, applying the ProVia Metal Roof panels. These durable metal sheets are carefully installed to create a sleek, modern look while providing top-notch protection against the elements. Each panel is secured in place, ensuring a strong, weather-resistant barrier that will stand the test of time. The metal roofing not only improves the barn's appearance but also offers long-lasting durability, making it a smart and stylish upgrade.

The barn's new roof looks amazing. What was once a mossy, weathered surface has been replaced with a clean, sleek ProVia Metal Roof. The fresh, updated look not only improves the barn's appearance but also blends nicely with the surrounding property. Beyond just the appearance, the new roof provides solid protection, ensuring the barn is safe from the elements for years to come. It's a great example of how a Klaus Larsen roof replacement can completely transform a building.
