Full Roof and Siding Replacement in Colerain Township, Cincinnati, OH
Challenge
After a strong windstorm swept through Colerain Township, this homeowner was left with visible damage to their roof and siding. Although some areas were clearly impacted, others showed more subtle signs of wear requiring a detailed inspection to build a strong case for insurance. The homeowner contacted multiple companies but was unsure how to move forward with the claim process or find a contractor who could handle both the storm damage restoration and the design updates they wanted to make at the same time.
The homeowner needed a contractor who could:
-
Identify storm-related damages and document them thoroughly
-
Assist in getting the proper insurance claim approved
-
Coordinate a full exterior remodel (roof, siding, and shutters)
-
Keep project timing tight and efficient, since the homeowner’s work schedule only allowed a narrow window
-
Offer financing for costs beyond what insurance would cover
Solution
Klaus Roofing Systems of Cincinnati began with a thorough attic-to-rooftop inspection, which included documentation of wind damage, multiple layers of shingles, and compromised siding. Thanks to our detailed photos and inspection report, the homeowner’s insurance provider approved a full replacement for all storm-affected areas. From there, the homeowner opted to fully update the entire exterior to achieve a clean, uniform new look.
Over the course of just two days, our team replaced the aging roof with IKO Dynasty AR shingles in Granite Black, a high-performance Class 3 laminated shingle known for its durability and wind resistance. We installed IKO StormShield Ice & Water Shield around vulnerable areas, followed by Tri-Built synthetic underlayment across the field for long-term protection. This roof is now backed by our 10-year no-leak warranty for added peace of mind.
On the siding side, we removed nearly 2,000 square feet of old cladding and replaced it with Slate-colored EXP Market D45DL vinyl siding. The homeowner chose clean white cathedral-top shutters to complete the crisp new look. We also reset the home’s gutters and soffits, made light fascia and rafter repairs, and wrapped the structure in a high-performance vapor barrier for added moisture control.
To cover the costs outside the insurance scope, the homeowner took advantage of our financing options, spreading the investment out while still getting the full-color, full-home transformation they envisioned.
