Missing Ridge Cap Shingles
The ridge vent is exposed, which means the ridge cap shingles that are supposed to cover and protect it are either missing or were never installed. This leaves the vent vulnerable to UV damage, debris, and water intrusion - defeating the purpose of having a vent in the first place.
Damged Shingles and Exposed Decking
The underlying wood is visible, which means shingles are either missing or lifted. This leaves the roof vulnerable to water intrusion and rot. The exposed section shows signs of wood rot or delamination, indicating prolonged moisture exposure.
Shingle Problems
Granule loss, exposed fiberglass mat, and misaligned patches compromise the roof's water-shedding ability and overall integrity. This roof is at high risk for leaks and needs professional replacement to restore proper function.
Tear off in Progress
Protective tarps in place to safeguard siding and landscaping as multiple layers of worn shingles are removed. Clean and efficient debris control is key to a safe and organized roofing project
Attic Inspection
Attic inspection reveals adequate structural support and ventilation light at the eaves-but note the uneven insulation coverage. Properly balanced attic ventilation and consistent insulation depth are key to energy efficiency and preventing moisture-related damage
Roof Decking
Roof deck prepped and protected with Velora One synthetic underlayment and Sealoron XT Ice & Water Shield in critical areas. Plywood sheathing replacement completed where needed.
Final Result
Final install complete-this architectural shingle roof features precision-cut ridge caps, properly placed off-ridge vents, and a clean, symmetrical layout for optimal performance and curb appeal. Built the Klaus Roofing Way for lasting protection.
