This small, one-family residential home in North Windham was due for a roof replacement. We started this job by tearing away one layer of pre-existing asphalt roofing and disposing of it properly. We then inspected the roof deck, where we found and replaced 2 damaged sheets of plywood roof decking. Two rows of Ice & Water Barrier were installed followed up by a layer of Synthetic Underlayment in order to repel water. For shingles, we installed a Klaus Larsen Roofing System using Cambridge Architectural Shingles in the Super White colorway. To finish off this project, we installed a ridge vent to maintain attic ventilation as well as replacing the chimney flashing and vent pipe boot. This home is complete thanks to Klaus Larsen Roofing!
For this project in North Windham, CT we tore off two layers to be recycled, and carefully took down a satellite dish. All rotted plywood was replaced, as well as the swan board decking. A water repellent underlayment was installed with three rows of Ice & Water shield, to inhibit any water from getting in under the shingles. For ventilation, Smart Vent eave vents were added along the eaves and garage of the house. The finished shingles are Owens Corning Duration Driftwood, and look amazing with the color of this home!
Shingle-style homes are iconic in how they portray New England summers, and it was a pleasure working on one. This Groton home was in need of a complete roofing overhaul. We used ice and water shield to protect it from coastal storms. Call us today and we can cater our expertise to your home's needs.
On this Groton, CT project, we installed a new roof using IKO Cambridge Earthtone Cedar shingles. This type of shingle is made larger than other brands, to achieve the appearance of wooden shake. We think it looks great!
We finished this Groton, CT house in the spring of 2014. Here's what the homeowner had to say:
"The team at Klaus Larsen did an excellent job replacing the roof, trim, and gutters on our 1940's Dutch colonial revival. We have extremely high winds down here close to the water but the roof has held tight and dry. The team was professional and personable and we couldn't have made a better choice for a roofing contractor. Our neighbors were so impressed with the team that they hired them for their roofing project later last year as well. I have passed their name along several times to friends and family as a trustworthy, inexpensive, and detail oriented company."
