The roof is getting ready for the preperations
This is after we roved all the old asphalt shingles and will begin the water barrier. We use the Klaus Roofing-approved underlayment and then seal the decking. Eventually, the new roofing shingles will go up.

Roving the old shingles
Here we are removing the old, damaged shingles and make way for the new roof.

Adding the protective layers
As you can see, we are creating a waterproof seal using our sealant tape, under the new asphalt shingles.
