This is a roof we did in Bemidji Minnesota. It consists of Metal Sales Image II Standing Seam, Carlisle TPO, and Granite Black Shingles.

Jim recently chose Vita Roofing, a Klaus Larsen Roofing affiliate, to give his home a much-needed roof replacement. Our crew began by removing the old roofing system down to the decking. Once the structure was fully exposed, we inspected every board, replacing any that were weak or rotted. This step ensured a solid, long-lasting foundation for the new roofing system.

With the decking replaced & secured, our team began installing multiple layers of protection designed to keep Jim’s home safe from the elements. We used Sealoron XT Ice and Water on all eaves and valleys for leak prevention, followed by a Synthetic Roof Underlayment. This roofing is a superior, four-layer underlayment featuring a non-woven top surface that provides excellent walkability for installers and a grip-enhanced backing that holds securely to the decking. This added layer significantly strengthens the roof system by providing an extra shield against moisture and wind-driven rain. To finish the protective barrier, we added an aluminum drip edge around the perimeter, starter shingles, updated venting, and durable flashings.

For the finishing touches, we installed Class 3 Impact Rated IKO Dynasty shingles, known for their strength against hail, wind, and extreme weather, while also enhancing Jim’s home with lasting curb appeal. At the roof’s peaks, we used IKO Hip & Ridge shingles, a heavyweight option made from a resilient, inorganic glass base coated with weather-resistant asphalt. These shingles come pre-tapered, perforated, and surfaced with ceramic-colored granules to provide long-lasting protection against ultraviolet radiation while giving the roof a clean, polished look.

After a detailed cleanup, Jim’s home was left with a beautiful, high-performance roofing system built to endure, done the right way, The Klaus Roofing Way.

This home, built in 1993, required a complete roof replacement. Once a roof is aged over 30 years, this is generally around the time a roof needs a facelift. After receiving a phone call from the property owner, we offered a free, no-obligation roof estimate from the professional roofing contractors at Vita Roofing. Our trusted salesman provided several recommendations for the best roofing options. After careful consideration, Ryan decided to proceed with a full shingle replacement, opting for IKO Dynasty Asphalt Shingles in Granite Black. These Class 3, impact-rated heavyweight shingles are made with a resilient, inorganic glass base that is coated with weather-resistant asphalt. The shingles feature a perforated, three-piece, pre-tapered design, ensuring long-lasting performance, and are surfaced with ceramic granules that protect the asphalt from ultraviolet radiation. During the roof renovation, we set up tarps to protect the surrounding structures and contain debris. We removed the existing roofing system down to the decking and inspected the decking for any soft or rotten areas, replacing them as necessary. Next, we installed two rows of Ice and Water Shield along all eaves and one row in the valleys. We then applied synthetic underlayment to the remaining areas of the roof and installed an aluminum drip edge around the perimeter.

Ryan was very pleased with the final results and will recommend Vita Roofing to everyone he knows!
