Klaus Roofing Systems of Upstate NY

Klaus Roofing Systems of Upstate NY serves Albany County with residential and commercial roofing designed specifically for the challenges of the Capital Region climate. The company handles shingle work, metal installations, and flat roof systems with a systems-level understanding of how roofing performs in cold climates. A roofing system in Upstate New York must address interconnected challenges. Snow loads require adequate structural support. Ice dams form when heat escaping from the attic melts snow that refreezes at the colder eaves. Moisture management depends on proper ventilation. Klaus approaches these as connected elements of a complete system rather than isolated problems. Metal roofing has become popular across the Capital Region for its ability to shed snow and its durability through harsh winters. Standing seam systems and metal panels both handle Upstate conditions well when properly installed. Shingle installations remain common and perform well when the underlying system is addressed correctly. Proper ventilation prevents the heat transfer that causes ice dams. Adequate underlayment protects against ice and water infiltration. Commercial flat roof systems require particular attention in cold climates. Drainage must account for snow melt. Membrane selection considers freeze-thaw durability. Klaus handles commercial projects with appropriate attention to these regional requirements. Repairs often reveal underlying system issues. Ice dam damage frequently indicates ventilation problems. Klaus addresses root causes along with visible damage. Licensed and insured in New York, serving Albany County with cold climate roofing expertise.
