Klaus Roofing Systems by Buck Buckley Before & After Photos

The homeowners roof had developed two separate leaks in different areas over the years. 

We re-estimated a project that required a full roof replacement with Emerald Green IKO asphalt shingles. During the assessment, we removed the kickouts and valley controllers due to space constraints. The project also involved replacing term bars with a drip edge, as we wanted to avoid using term bars on this roof. The estimate came in about 1K high on the asphalt side but 1k low on the EPDM side, resulting in a balanced cost. For the DCI smart ridges, Beacon can supply them, but they need to be special ordered.

The homeowner considered reusing the existing drip edge to save costs but ultimately decided to have Leaf guards remove the gutters for 2k. As an engineer, he thoroughly analyzed all options before making a decision. Although he would have liked to eliminate the box vents on the front side, a ridge vent was not feasible due to potential interference with the rubber to asphalt transition. The total roof area for this project is 11.5 SQ.

Full roof replacement in Racine, WI using IKO Dynasty architectural lifetime shingles

We transformed this customer's detached garage roof from old, rotting shingles into a new, long-lasting & affordable roof. 

The owner of this ranch style home knew he needed a professional because he could see that the ceiling was damp and starting to bulge. To start off we removed all of the existing materials and rebuilt the decking with CDX Plywood. The next step was to install ice & water and underlayment. They chose IKO Dynasty Shingles in the color Cornerstone, which is what was installed next. To keep proper ventilation we also cut out a new ridge vent, then installed chimney flashing to ensure a watertight seal. The owners of this Milwaukee, WI home can now relax, knowing that a leaky roof is something they won't need to worry about again.
