Before & After Photos

This flat roof in Columbus, Ohio was in desperate need of an upgrade. As shown in the before photo, the rusted metal roof was 10 years old, leaking, and had been installed by the homeowner himself. To address these issues, the homeowner reached out to Klaus Larsen Roofing for a lasting solution. Focusing on the garage, we installed a brand-new roof and added new gutters to ensure complete protection. We began by removing all the old roofing to inspect and replace any damaged or rotten plywood. Next, we applied a black EDM membrane and ISO Insulation, giving this flat roof a fresh, durable look.

Now, the garage roof is not only functional but also built to last, with enhanced durability and a sleek new appearance. Thanks to Klaus Larsen Roofing, this homeowner can enjoy peace of mind and protection from the elements for years to come. The Klaus Roofing Way!

The homeowner had been dealing with recurring leaks near their fireplace, raising concerns about the roof’s long-term durability. They reached out to Klaus Roofing Systems of Ohio for a permanent solution and were interested in upgrading from asphalt shingles to metal slate roofing. This choice promised enhanced durability, energy efficiency, and a sleek, modern appearance. After inspecting the roof, our team confirmed the leak sources and prepared a plan to replace the shingles with metal slate panels.

Following The Klaus Roofing Way, we carefully removed the existing shingles, paying close attention to the area around the fireplace where leaks were common. We installed new flashing and sealants to prevent future water intrusion in that vulnerable spot. With the prep complete, we installed the metal slate roofing, ensuring each panel was securely fastened for maximum durability. The homeowner was thrilled with the transformation, noting both the improved look and added peace of mind. The new roof not only resolved the leak issue but also provided lasting protection, making it a worthwhile investment.

The homeowner contacted us for a roof replacement after being advised during their home purchase four years ago that both the roof and decking would eventually need replacement. Although attic access was not possible during the assessment, our exterior inspection revealed the aging asphalt shingles were nearing the end of their lifecycle, making a replacement essential for protecting the home from future damage.

Our proposal includes the installation of Dynasty Architectural Shingles, known for their heavy-duty construction and exceptional durability. These shingles feature a larger nailing surface, a tear-resistant ArmourZone strip, and Fastlock sealant for a stronger bond. With a 130 MPH wind warranty and a weight of 231 pounds per square, they are designed to provide maximum protection and long-term reliability. The homeowner selected the Glacier color, which offers a modern, crisp aesthetic that complements the home’s exterior.

As part of the project, we will remove the existing vent pipe boot and install a new 3" Perma-Boot in black to ensure proper ventilation and a secure, leak-free seal. This comprehensive roof replacement will not only enhance the home’s structural integrity but also provide peace of mind for years to come.

A homeowner in Columbus, OH, contacted us after their insurance company required them to have their 15-year-old roof inspected due to lifting shingles. Concerned about the roof's condition, they also wanted to address their gutters and improve water drainage to protect their home more effectively.

For the gutter system, we proposed installing 5" heavy-duty .027 Aluminum Seamless Gutters by SpeOHra in the homeowner's chosen color. These gutters come with a one-year limited paint finish warranty, protecting against blistering, flaking, chipping, peeling, cracking, rotting, splitting, or red rust. The project will replicate the existing gutter system, unless otherwise specified, with standard 2x3 downspouts and upgraded 3" x 4" aluminum downspouts to improve water flow.

Additionally, we will install RainDrop Gutter Protection, which uses a proprietary durable blend of polypropylene and UV stabilizers. Its "Flex-Flange" design ensures adaptability to any situation, keeping gutters free from debris and minimizing maintenance. To enhance functionality further, we will add Klaus Roofing Systems of Ohio Gutter Shutter Accessories, including durable downspout elbows. The system is backed by a 5-year limited workmanship warranty, ensuring peace of mind for the homeowner.

This comprehensive approach not only meets insurance requirements but also provides the homeowner with a durable and efficient roof and gutter system that safeguards their home for years to come.
