Klaus Roofing of Ohio Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Columbus, Ohio, recently discovered water damage near their chimney while going through the refinancing process. The house, built in 1926, has a roof that is about 10 years old, but it’s unclear how long the leak has been an issue. Concerned about potential long-term damage, they reached out to have the problem properly assessed and repaired. Upon inspection, we found that the chimney flashing had begun to deteriorate, allowing water to seep in over time. Rather than risking further interior damage, the homeowner decided to move forward with a permanent solution. Following the Klaus Roofing way, we ensured that every step of the process was done with precision and long-lasting results in mind.

To resolve the issue, we will remove the chimney down to the roof level, apply new plywood, and install Dynasty Architectural Shingles in Atlantic Blue to create a durable and seamless repair. The interior portion of the chimney will remain intact to maintain the home's original structure. Additionally, we will install a Smart Vent system along the eaves to enhance attic ventilation, ensuring better airflow and long-term protection for the roof. Our team will also inspect the surrounding roof area for any additional weak spots or moisture concerns to prevent future leaks. By using high-quality materials like the tear-resistant Armour Zone strip and Fastlock sealant, we are providing maximum protection against the elements. With our 50-year transferable warranty, the homeowner can feel confident that their roof is built to last.

The decking on this roof was rotted and falling through into the attic. Our team repaired the damaged. 

This roof was rotted through to the decking. Our team replaced 44 sheets of plywood, put down a protective layer of ice and water shield, and then finished the job with brand new IKO Dynasty shingles.

The Klaus Roofing team, led by Project Manager Lamont Martin installed IKO Cambridge shingles in charcoal gray. The entire project took less than a day. The homeowner was thrilled with the result.

A valued return customer reached out to complete their roofing project. Earlier, we had successfully handled the first portion of the job, and now they were ready to finalize the transformation. Having experienced the quality and care we bring to every project, the customer knew they could trust us to finish the work seamlessly.

The next step involved installing hip and ridge shingles to perfectly match the existing roof. Using premium materials from Klaus Roofing Systems of Ohio, we ensured the shingles complemented the earlier work for a unified and polished appearance. By maintaining

consistency in both style and durability, the roof’s overall integrity and aesthetic were preserved.

This final phase of the project reinforced our commitment to customer satisfaction and high-quality craftsmanship. With the roof now fully restored, the customer could enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing their home was protected and looking its best. It was a privilege to be part of this journey, helping to bring their vision to completion.
