During a recent inspection of a flat residential roof in Albany, NY, we identified several signs of aging, including noticeable cracking and separation in the asphalt. The existing Built-Up Roof (BUR) system, known for its cost-effectiveness, is constructed from a combination of tar and asphalt. This roofing style is popular due to its multiple layers of protection.

Our inspection revealed extensive white discoloration across various sections of the roof, indicative of significant calcium build-up. This issue garnered the attention of the homeowner, Joanna, as it poses potential long-term protection concerns if left unaddressed. Recognizing the urgency, Joanna decided to contact a contractor for a comprehensive evaluation and a complimentary estimate. This is where Klaus Roofing Systems of Upstate NY became involved.

We provided Joanna with an array of options, enabling her to make an informed decision regarding the replacement of her flat roof. She expressed her appreciation for our expertise and the thoroughness of our presentation, ultimately feeling confident in her choice moving forward.

Sissy and Mel reached out to Klaus Roofing of Upstate NY to request an estimate for their deteriorating asphalt roof. When our experienced team visits any property, we conduct a thorough inspection of the entire roof, both inside and out, to identify any repairable damage.

If our assessment reveals that the roof structure is beyond repair, we present several options for the homeowner to consider. Typically, homeowners prefer to explore repair options before opting for a full replacement. From a structural standpoint, it is essential to ensure that the surrounding shingles are capable of withstanding future storms, such as heavy wind and rain. Failure to do so could result in frequent repairs, ultimately costing more time and money than anticipated.
