Storm Damage Roof Repair in Columbus, OH: Durable Protection with Granite Black Shingles

 

A homeowner in Columbus, OH, reached out to repair roof damage caused by a recent storm. With attic access limited due to a closet with shelves, a detailed exterior inspection revealed the areas in need of repair. To restore the roof and provide long-term durability, we proposed a targeted solution using high-quality materials.

The repair includes the application of Dynasty Architectural Shingles in Granite Black, a heavy-duty option designed for enhanced durability. These shingles feature a tear-resistant Armour Zone strip, a larger nailing surface, and Fastlock sealant, creating a strong bond for maximum protection against future storms. They also come with a 130 MPH wind warranty and a weight of 231 pounds per square, ensuring both strength and style.

Additionally, we will install two rows of Klaus Roofing Systems’ Sealoron XT Ice & Water Barrier (or a comparable product) for added protection. This barrier will extend 6 feet from all eaves, wrapping 1 inch over the fascia board, and will be applied 3 feet in valleys and 18 inches around chimneys, skylights, dormers, and other roof penetrations. These measures will help prevent water infiltration and extend the life of the repaired sections of the roof.

This repair will not only address the immediate storm damage but also reinforce the roof for future weather conditions, giving the homeowner peace of mind.

Chimney Leak Repair and Roof Restoration in Columbus, OH

A homeowner in Columbus, Ohio, recently discovered water damage near their chimney while going through the refinancing process. The house, built in 1926, has a roof that is about 10 years old, but it’s unclear how long the leak has been an issue. Concerned about potential long-term damage, they reached out to have the problem properly assessed and repaired. Upon inspection, we found that the chimney flashing had begun to deteriorate, allowing water to seep in over time. Rather than risking further interior damage, the homeowner decided to move forward with a permanent solution. Following the Klaus Roofing way, we ensured that every step of the process was done with precision and long-lasting results in mind.

 

To resolve the issue, we will remove the chimney down to the roof level, apply new plywood, and install Dynasty Architectural Shingles in Atlantic Blue to create a durable and seamless repair. The interior portion of the chimney will remain intact to maintain the home's original structure. Additionally, we will install a Smart Vent system along the eaves to enhance attic ventilation, ensuring better airflow and long-term protection for the roof. Our team will also inspect the surrounding roof area for any additional weak spots or moisture concerns to prevent future leaks. By using high-quality materials like the tear-resistant Armour Zone strip and Fastlock sealant, we are providing maximum protection against the elements. With our 50-year transferable warranty, the homeowner can feel confident that their roof is built to last.
