Klaus Roofing Systems by Quality 1st Case Studies: Roof Replacement in Highland Park, NJ

Seeing their roof covered in black streaks was a major concern for this home in Highland Park, NJ. The homeowner needed to know what steps they had to take to repair their roof, so they searched the Internet. They found Klaus Roofing Systems by Quality 1st was offering free roofing estimates. The homeowner saw this as an opportunity, so they contacted the company to schedule an appointment. Our roofing specialist arrived at the home and provided a thorough inspection of the roof. Without hesitation, our roofing specialist immediately knew the roof has to be replaced. Not only were there black streaks, but the shingle was covered in algae. Our roofing specialist presented this to the homeowner and told them the roof needed to be replaced. The homeowner agreed and scheduled another appointment for our crew to come out and replace the roof. 

Within a week, our crew arrived at the home and replaced the roof. They first placed a large tarp around the perimeter of the home and removed any loose materials from the roof. These materials included branches, plants, and shrubs. Our crew then stripped the roof. Once the old shingles have been stripped, our crew inspected the roofing deck. They noticed some plywood was rotting, so they replaced it with thick and durable CDX plywood. They then laid the ice and water membrane on top. The ice and water membrane protects the roofing deck from water seepage. Finally, our crew installed the new shingles and did a thorough cleanup before completing the job. The homeowner was very pleased with the results! Their home was protected from the outside elements and their problems were eliminated.
