This homeowner in Madison, IN was struggling with their roof drainage system. The gutters and downspouts were all clogged with debris, and this was causing their roof to host pools of water, instead of their yard. We were able to reconfigure their gutters and downspouts by first unclogging them. We then installed RainDrop Gutter Guards over their gutters to make sure it doesn't clog again.
The overhanging trees over this roof were causing some issues for the roof. They were shedding "helicopter seeds" and were providing too much shade to the roof. The shade was accelerating moss growth, and the seeds were getting stuck in the shingles and gutters. We trimmed the trees back to combat these problems and to be able to properly install the roof without any obstacles. We replaced the roof the "Klaus Roofing Way" with IKO shingles in a Frostone shade.
We replaced certain roofing sections on this house. The owner only wanted that section done, so we agreed to take care of it. this existing roof had 2 layers of shingles, which can actually speed up the process of roof damage by trapping more heat than it should plan for. After we stripped two layers of shingles, we placed 15 overlay boards over the sheathing. We then placed down our IKO Stormshield Ice & Water adhesive membrane two feet up from the bottom of the house roof and everywhere on the porch roof, and then we placed Tri-Built synthetic underlayment everywhere else. Then we installed IKO Dynasty shingles in a granite black shade all over the roof, including the hips and ridges. For the final details, we installed step flashing, apron flashing, IKO edges, and ACM aluminum rake edges.
The existing skylights on this home were pretty old and rusted. When we were replacing this roof, the homeowner was debating getting new skylights, so we showed them our pamphlet. They fell in love with our sleek, rectangular skylight option, so we installed it for them. These skylights have a remote control to open and close the blinds attached to them. In the hot summer days when the homeowner leaves for work, they can close their blinds and save money on cooling!
