Call us for a free, no-obligation estimate today! About Klaus Larsen: Klaus Larsen bought his first apartment building in Denmark at the age of 21, renovating every single one of the 13 apartments in it in less than three years. At the age of 32, he immigrated to the US with his tools and $300 in his pocket to live the American Dream. Little did he know those metric tools would do him little good in a country that only used inches and feet. By 1998 he was able to start his own home improvement business, becoming a roofing-only company in 2010. Klaus is well known for his historic work, using his ingenious creativity to update antique homes so their roofs perform properly while maintaining their architectural integrity. His attention to detail and Old World craftsmanship have earned him a reputation for helping to maintain New England’s rich history while integrating state-of-the-art roofing technology into it’s homes.
"Team (from Anthony the estimator to the install crew) was thoroughly professional. Communication from the company was excellent. Updates on schedule were frequent. Project started on time and completed true to the quote given. Not the cheapest quote we received (nowhere near the highest either) but certainly a good value."

"5 stars for the window replacement. Everything about it, and all of the various people involved (sales, measurements, installation, inspection) were fantastic. The installation team did leave some debris on-site, but the inspector took it away in his truck before he left. 4 stars for the siding work (subcontracted). They did a good job on a 90+ degree day. They did use some of our bricks that were being used as an animal barrier for our garden to level their ladder and didn't put them back. We also had language barriers that made the signing off process a littler longer. Some random metal pieces from the job were left in our driveway and boarders, but were easy to find before they did any potential damage to car tires. 1 star for the insulation work (subcontracted). The guy was supposed to come between 7-9 am, but due to a "communication issue" on their side, he didn't come until 12:30 pm. My wife took off work to be home to let him in, and had they told us he would be there in the afternoon, I could've been home and no time off needed. Punctual is supposedly one of their bill of rights. We wanted a radiant barrier put on our roof. He did maybe 70% and stopped, calling the job done. He also left a bunch of the fasteners on the floor of our attic and didn't take the time to cut off any excess material. My wife signed off on the paperwork without looking at the job (partially her fault), but the installer had her sign it on the first floor and made it seem like he was in a hurry to get back to PA where he's from. I called and complained about the job and sent photos and video. It was the end of the day, and I missed the call back, but there was no communication after. Without letting us know, it turns out, they are coming tomorrow between 10-noon. I only found this out because I called to complain about the gutter installation that was late and asked about a follow-up to the attic install. ZERO communication that someone was going to be coming, so now I have to take off of work again in hopes that they actually show up. It's not listed on the app that they tout as the greatest thing ever. 1 star so far for the gutter installation (subcontracted). The gutter installation was supposed to be done on Tuesday (two days ago, and a day after the siding since it goes on top of a portion of that), but then the app mysteriously updated itself to say Thursday (today) between 8-10 am. This isn't a huge deal since it's outside and no one needs to be home, but again, no actual communication from Power. At 11:30, we noticed that no one had shown up, so I called. It turns out, the install team couldn't source the black gutter materials, and so they'll have to do it tomorrow. ZERO communication from Power until I called them. The app even shows that they're still coming today between 8-10 even after I called and complained. It's supposed to rain today/tomorrow, and the manager assured me that it wouldn't do any damage to the siding that we just had them install. They have 10 bill of rights. They can go ahead and take off customer first, allocation, and punctual based on their descriptions. If you need windows done, I highly recommend them. When they try to sell you on other stuff, find someone else."

"I would highly recommend Ericsen Contracting! Eric ended up being the perfect fit for our project and literally made our vision come alive. I had many ideas, multiple products and his attention to detail, advice and experience let it all come together so successfully. Our project included everything exterior…the roof (asphalt and metal), replacing skylights, front door and exterior light replacements, gutters, soffits, metal trim, cedar woodwork, monogram siding, cedar impressions and Versetta stone. We also had 2 half moon windows taken out and he did all the sheetrock and interior finishing work for those areas. He took into account every little detail and always held the highest standards for his work and those that work for him. I am still in awe of all the work and detail put into the project. He was 100% invested in us from project start to finish. His estimate was not the lowest, but his passion for the project is what originally won us over and we don’t regret it."

Consider your budget, desired appearance, and durability needs. Wood, clay, or slate shingles make a striking impression for great curb appeal. Metal or composite shingles offer exceptional durability in humid climates. If you're looking for a cost-effective option that balances performance and affordability, asphalt shingles are a popular choice.
Professional roofers can install a straightforward asphalt shingle roof in one to three days. Complex designs or steep roofs may take up to a week, especially when using specialized materials that require extra care.
While it's possible to install new shingles over an existing layer, most building codes limit this to two layers of shingles. Overlaying shingles doesn't offer the same protection as a full replacement and may affect warranties and appearance. A complete removal is recommended for the best results.
The lifespan of a shingle roof depends on the material and environment. Asphalt shingles typically last around 20 years. Composite, vinyl, and wood shingles can last up to 50 years. Durable materials like clay and metal may last 80 years with proper maintenance, and slate roofs can endure for up to 100 years.
