Roof Replacement Before & After Photos

This home was damaged by the March 2025 hail storm in Kerrville, Texas

Mr. Pruski contacted Klaus Roofing Systems regarding a roof replacement estimate. He decided he did want to worry about doing the job twice and hired us on the spot. 

When Mrs. Cline called us out to her corner lot on Apex Ave, she wasn't just looking for a new color—she was looking for a roof that could handle the wind exposure of The Pinnacle subdivision. As a New Braunfels local, I know that these corner properties take the brunt of Central Texas storm fronts, so we approached this with a "system-first" mindset.

The Inspection & Tear-Off We started with a clean tear-off down to the original wood. In this neighborhood, you can't guess what’s happening underneath. Fortunately, the roof deck was sound, with no rotten plywood, giving us a solid foundation to build on.

The "Klaus Way" Protection System Rather than just slapping on shingles, we installed a multi-layered water barrier:

• Ice & Water Shield: We armored all eaves and valleys to ensure water never migrates under the system.

• High-Performance Underlayment: A secondary synthetic barrier was laid to protect the home against wind-driven rain.

• Architectural Shingles: Mrs. Cline chose a high-definition architectural shingle that maintained her home's classic look while providing a massive upgrade in durability and wind resistance.

The Result The finished product isn't just a "roof replacement"; it’s an engineered system designed specifically for the Texas Hill Country. Mrs. Cline can rest easy knowing her home is now backed by a fail-proof standard that will keep her dry and safe for decades.

When Diane and Cliff reached out, they were dealing with a leak in a roof that was only 9 years old. In a premium neighborhood like Havenwood, you expect more than a decade of protection, but standard asphalt shingles often struggle with the Central Texas hail and heat cycles. They were done with "patch-and-pray" repairs—they wanted a permanent solution they didn't have to worry about again.

The Recommendation: F-Wave Revia I suggested the F-Wave Revia Shingle for homeowners who want the high-end aesthetic of hand-split cedar shake but need a system that is virtually "worry-free". In Havenwood (78132), where curb appeal is mandatory, this was the right technical and visual move.

The "Klaus Way" Engineering To ensure this was the last roof they’d ever need, we executed a complete system overhaul:

• Virtually Hail-Proof: F-Wave is a single-piece commercial-grade polymer with a Class 4 impact rating—meaning it doesn't just resist hail; it’s designed to survive it without the granular loss common in asphalt.

• System-Based Sealing: We addressed the 9-year-old failure points by installing premium high-performance secondary water barrier.

• The Foundation: We stripped the roof to the deck to verify the "bones" of the home were sound before installing the new 50-year system.

• The Result Diane and Cliff now have a roof that outclasses everything else on the block. It provides the timeless look of cedar shake with the peace of mind that comes from a synthetic system built for long-term performance, not short-term fixes. (Updated: 02/27/2026)
