Roof Replacement Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Columbus, OH reached out to Klaus Larsen Roofing, a trusted roof repair company, after noticing significant issues with their aging asphalt shingle roof. The roof’s exact age was unknown, but active leaks, nail pops, and curling shingles made it clear that a full replacement was needed. Complicating the project, the home was located on a street surrounded by heavy construction, with periodic closures that would require careful planning and communication to maintain project flow.

Our roof replacement contractor team will replace the roof on the main house, excluding the detached garage. To ensure a solid, long-lasting system, the existing plank decking will be overlaid with new OSB before the new shingles are installed. Additionally, two skylights will be removed and replaced, providing enhanced protection against future leaks and improving the home’s energy efficiency.

As an experienced roof repair contractor and roof replacement company, Klaus Larsen Roofing will work closely with the homeowner to manage material deliveries, coordinate site access, and navigate local construction disruptions. Once completed, the home will have a durable new roofing system built to stand up to Ohio’s harsh seasons, restoring both protection and curb appeal with the quality craftsmanship that defines the Klaus Larsen Roofing way.

This roof had extensive damage and missing sections. The wood decking was rotting leading to a leak through the house. The homeowner called Klaus Larsen Roofing to find a solution.

This homeowner in Columbus, OH called Klaus Roofing because his shingle roof has some damage and needed to be replaced. The rubber roof portion also needed to be replaced. One of our certified inspectors went out to the home to do an inspection and provide a free quote for replacement. The homeowner decided to go with us for the project. He is happy with the results and won't have to worry about leakage for years to come.

A Columbus homeowner contacted us for a roof replacement on their 20-year-old roof, recognizing it was time to upgrade for better protection and durability. Our plan includes tearing off one layer of the existing roofing materials and cleaning up all debris using a magnetic roller to ensure no nails are left behind. All debris will be loaded into a contractor-supplied dumpster and responsibly hauled to the plant for disposal. Before we begin, we advised the homeowner to cover any valuables in the attic area, as dust or debris may fall through the roof boards during the process.

For the replacement, we’ll be installing Dynasty Architectural Shingles in Froststone Grey, a high-performance option with a larger nailing surface, tear-resistant Armour Zone strip, and Fastlock sealant for maximum protection. These shingles offer a 130 MPH wind warranty and a weight of 231 pounds per square, ensuring a durable and secure roof for years to come. The project will also include cutting in a ridge vent on the main roof for improved ventilation, removing the existing hat vents, and retaining the hat vent on the lowest back portion of the roof. The garage roof is not part of this replacement, but the house, including the flat roof, will be fully upgraded. This comprehensive approach ensures the homeowner's peace of mind and a stylish, weather-resistant roof for their Columbus home.
