Clarksville, TN's Trusted Roofing Contractor

Recent storms that run through Clarksville left a lot of damage on roofs in Middle Tennessee. 90 mph winds caused severe damage on roofs from missing shingles to trees completely destroying the roofs. 

The house below is an example of after storm damage. It has a large section of shingles missing that is now allowing water get under the roof since there is nothing to stop it. To repair this roof, we installed waterproofing barrier and new asphalt shingles that perfectly match color of the original roof. All cracks and nails were sealed to make sure no water can get through. The heavy-duty, tear-resistant waterproofing layers that we installed would stop water even if another unusual strong winds occurred in the future, blowing shingles off. Let's hope it won't happen any time soon and homeowners can enjoy their repaired roof!

Did you know that air from the main living area of your house rises and accumulates in the attic? In summertime, this air gets really hot because we don't have AC in the attic space, and the air needs to escape outside. If this air stayed in the attic, together with moisture they can cause mold growth and slow deterioration of the roof from inside, such as nails corroding, wood weakening.

Upon a call of homeowners of a house in Clarksville, Tennessee, we replaced old ridge vents with proper attic ventilation system. The hot air doesn't accumulate in the attic as it used to and the homeowners feel a big difference when they walk up there!

Our roof specialist Tyler arrived to a home in Clarksville, Tennessee, to inspect its roof and find the source of leaking. The homeowner was observing it for quite a while, but wasn't quite sure where it originated.

Tyler inspected the roof in the attic and from outside, climbed up and took drone images to have a complete understanding of what condition the roof is at the moment, and what all needs to be fixed. He found that the leaking is happening around the chimney. The original flashing failed, sealant was too old and cracked and needed to be repaired. 

Our roof crew removed old flashing and shingles around the chimney to inspect it for any water damage. They were not surprised to find a pretty bad rotten wood underneath. We replaced the decking and installed a waterproofing barrier called Ice&Water Shield to waterproof the area. Everything was sealed and a new flashing was installed before the shingles were put on. We also added a roof cricket to redirect water from hitting the chimney off the cricket and to the gutters. 

Now with our help and high quality materials that we use at Klaus Roofing Systems of Nashville, the homeowner doesn't need to worry about leaks any more!

 Sometimes it’s not the main house, but the garage that has roofing leaks and needs attention. Our roofing specialists Chuck and Tyler worked together to come up with the best solution for the homeowner of a house in Clarksville, Tennessee, who noticed some iffy areas on his garage. He was right. After the inspection Tyler discovered areas with leaks, deteriorating shingles. The roof was at least 15 years old, as the homeowner remembered, and needed to be replaced. A few shingles were missing most likely due to gusty winds that we often get in the Middle Tennessee.

While our roofing crew was working on the garage roof, Chuck and Tyler also noticed that the mesh gutter guards that were installed on the gutters on the main house were not working properly. They were damaged on several places, most likely from squirrels who tried to nest in there, or maybe birds. They noticed granule loss in the gutters, twigs and leaves, that were getting through large gaps. After they informed the homeowner about our RainDrop Gutter Guard system, he didn’t hesitate and allowed them to replace them.

The final results turned out really nice. The homeowner doesn’t need to worry about his gutters getting clogged, causing water to overflow and cause damage on the house anymore, and the new garage roof is nicely matching with the main house!

Homeowners in Clarksville, TN, own a neat little property. A house with a garage built close to it, all surrounded by trees. What makes for a beautiful view and privacy screen, may not always be best for a roof. The trees daily drop pine needles, acorns, and branches down on the roof, where they stay sitting. In combination with extreme weather that we experience in Tennessee, like heavy rains, strong winds, and occasional hail, caused the roof to slowly deteriorate.

The roof was several years old and showing signs of damage, so the homeowners decided to call Klaus Roofing Systems Nashville.

Our roofing expert inspected the roof and, together with the homeowners, decided to replace the whole roof. The garage roof was getting a complete new Klaus Roofing System, so the owners received a 50-year warranty on the roof! It’s the highest roof warranty you can get around here!

The roof was stripped down to the decking to ensure no rotten spots. When no damaged wood was found, it was time to install Sealoron XT Ice and Water Barrier and Synthetic Underlayment. These durable, tear-resistant materials are engineered to repel water and protect the house from leaks. The roof got a new drip and rake edge along all eaves and rakes of the roof. Now it’s time for shingles! Klaus Roofing Systems Nashville uses only shingles of the highest quality. They are heavy-duty and engineered to resist 130 mph winds. They are coated with copper for superior mildew resistance. The vent pipes were replaced with new black UV protected Perma Boots, and the old vent boxes were replaced with brand new UV protected Lomanco box vents. Lastly, when the roof was finished, our crew never forgets to sweep the yard with a magnetic roller to pick up all fallen nails from the ground.
