A beautiful transformation for this home in Vernon, CT with a full Klaus Larsen Roofing System! What goes into a full Klaus Roofing System? An important part of the Klaus Roofing Way is our Sales Team inspects the attic space to identify any structural problems and molding during the initial inspection and meeting with the homeowner before scheduling the roof installation. Upon the roof replacement, we first replaced any damaged plywood and renailed the existing decking with Ring Shank Nails, a higher quality nail that is a cross between a nail and a screw and won't come out in high winds. We then laid down our Klaus Larsen Roofing SealoronXT Ice & Water self-sealing membrane to create a moisture barrier between the decking and the shingles. We also added 100 extra feet of Ice & Water for the lower slope roof on left rear of house. For even more protection, we installed our own Velora One Underlayment, a high performance synthetic underlayment designed to protect the home in even the most severe weather. We also took the extra step to protect the home by taping the the plywood steams with our all-weather SealoronXT Deck Tape. It's the Klaus Roofing Way! To top itoff, for new asphalt shingles, we installed IKO Dynasty Architectural Shingles featuring a 1-1/4" nailing area made with a tough reinforcing woven band for incredible nail-holding power to protect the home against Mother Nature's fury. The homeowner choose the shingle color Firestone Gray for their new roof.

Michael, a homeowner in Vernon, CT, had a faded grey roof that was showing clear signs of weathering and moss growth throughout the shingles. After a detailed consultation with one of our Klaus Larsen Roofing Sales Inspectors, he realized it was time to give his roof a fresh start.
On the day of the renovation, our crew got right to work. While some team members began stripping away the old, weathered shingles, others carefully protected the home by covering it with tarps to ensure no falling debris would damage the property. Once the roof was stripped, we inspected the plywood decking to assess its condition. We discovered areas of rotting plywood, which we promptly replaced, giving Michael’s roof a new, solid foundation.
After replacing the damaged decking, we applied protective layers, starting with the SealoronXT Ice & Water Shield to cover the roof’s most vulnerable areas, ensuring protection against rain, snow, and ice. Next, we installed the VeloraOne Underlayment to further protect the rest of the decking from any water that could seep from under the shingles and cause a leak in your home.
The final touch was the installation of IKO Dynasty shingles in the striking Granite Black color. Known for their durability, these shingles not only provide long-lasting protection but also enhance the curb appeal of any home. The color Granite Black added a sleek, modern look to Michael's house giving the home a refreshed appearance. With built-in algae resistance, these shingles prevent the growth of blue-green algae, keeping those unsightly black streaks and discoloration at bay for years to come.
