Roof Replacement Before & After Photos

This was another 'Roof Your Neighborhood' project in the town of Glastonbury, CT. When homeowners in the same community invest in their roof at the same time, we can offer a sizable discount on materials, as we are able to buy them in bulk. The first part of the process entailed removing and recycling one layer of old shingles. This was followed by inspecting and replacing all deteriorated plywood, so that we could safely install an underlayment membrane for added moisture protection. The finished shingles here are Slatestone Gray.  

When Scott of Vernon, CT began noticing leaks inside his home and shingles falling from his roof, he knew his original roof had reached the end of its lifespan. Like many homeowners, Scott wanted to make sure he made the right investment, so he gathered multiple estimates from local roofing contractors before making his decision.

After comparing his options, Scott chose Klaus Larsen Roofing because of our reputation for expertise, attention to detail, and thorough approach to every project. From the initial inspection through the final installation, our team took the time to explain the condition of the roof, outline the replacement process, and provide a solution designed to protect his home for years to come.

To give Scott a durable, high-performance roofing system, we removed the aging roof and installed a brand-new roof featuring IKO Dynasty shingles in the beautiful Biscayne color. The Biscayne shingles provide a clean, modern appearance while offering exceptional protection against the harsh New England weather that Connecticut homeowners experience throughout the year.

Today, Scott can enjoy peace of mind knowing his home is protected by a roofing system built to last. No more worrying about leaks, missing shingles, or unexpected repairs—just reliable protection and a refreshed look that enhances his home's curb appeal.

If your roof is showing signs of age, leaking, or losing shingles, Klaus Larsen Roofing can provide the same expert guidance and quality craftsmanship that helped Scott confidently invest in his home's future.

Peter and Maria in Essex, CT, reached out when it was time to replace their roof and make sure their home stayed protected for the long run. Our team began by removing the existing shingles and inspecting the roof deck to check for any areas that needed attention before moving forward.

Once the surface was properly prepared, we installed SealoronXT Ice & Water along the edges and key areas, followed by VeloraONE Roof Underlayment across the rest of the roof for added protection. The project was completed with IKO Dynasty shingles in the color Driftshake, giving their home a refreshed look along with a durable roofing system built to handle the elements for years to come.

Dean in Amston, CT reached out to us after noticing some clear signs that his roof had reached the end of its life. His asphalt shingle roof was over 20 years old and had previously sustained hail damage back in 2009. Lately, Dean had started seeing light coming through areas around the ridge vent and noticed a significant amount of granule loss from the shingles, both common indicators that a roof needs replacement. We completed a full roof replacement on both the home and the shed in the backyard. For this project, we used IKO Dynasty shingles in Granite Black, giving the entire property a refreshed, modern look. Now, Dean has a durable roofing system built to handle the elements and last for years to come. 

After living in their Columbia home for more than 40 years, Ed and Patty knew it was time to replace their aging roof. During our thorough inspection, we discovered a problem that had been affecting their home for decades: the attic had never been equipped with proper intake ventilation.

The lack of balanced airflow had trapped heat and moisture inside the attic, leading to mold damage and deteriorated roof decking. To restore the roof's structural integrity, our team replaced multiple damaged roof sheathing panels before installing a new roofing system.

To ensure the problem wouldn't return, we upgraded the home's ventilation with the Klaus AirFlow Complete™ System, providing the balanced intake and exhaust ventilation the attic had always needed. This complete roofing system helps regulate attic temperatures, reduce moisture buildup, and protect the roof for years to come.

As part of the project, we also replaced several rotted exterior trim boards, giving the home a refreshed appearance while addressing areas affected by years of weather exposure.

After comparing their options, Ed and Patty chose Klaus Larsen Roofing because of our expertise, attention to detail, and comprehensive approach. Rather than simply replacing shingles, we identified and corrected the underlying issues that were impacting the performance and longevity of their roof.

The finished project features beautiful IKO Dynasty® shingles in Sentinel Slate, giving the home lasting protection, improved attic performance, and a clean, updated look that will serve the homeowners for years to come.
