Brown Roofing Company, Inc. Before & After Photos

This customer's  leaking roof was in need of several repairs and a partial flat roof replacement. The Brown Roofing team re-flashed around the chimney and vent. Old and stained shingles were removed and replaced with a new EPDM roof.

At Brown Roofing, we recently completed a roofing project for Candice's home in Hamden. Our salesman, John, worked closely with her to choose the IKO Dynasty shingles in the sleek Granite Black color. His expertise ensured that Candice was confident in her decision, aligning her vision with the best options available.

With the project managed by our experienced team, the installation went smoothly and efficiently. The transformation was striking, and we documented the process with before and after photos that showcase the dramatic upgrade. The new roof not only enhances the beauty of Candice’s home but also provides the durability and protection she needs. We’re proud of the results and excited to continue serving homeowners with quality roofing solutions!

This homeowner worked with Inspector Geoffrey and Project Manager William to choose IKO Dynasty AR Class 3  Shingles in Summit Gray.

Brown Won't Let You Down!

This customer called us out to their home because a small section of their roof was leaking. This part of the roof happened to be a flat roof and instead of shingles so we installed an EPDM system. 

This system works differently than a shingle roof and they are mainly installed because of a low sloped roof. If the slope of a roof is too low typically a four-pitch and under an EPDM or SBS roof should be installed. 

The first step to a rubber roof is to strip the existing roof down to the decking layer and inspect it to see if it needs to be replaced. If it is an older roof then the wood needs to be replaced more often than not because the original installers used to glue the ISO boards directly to the plywood decking layer instead of using fasteners. Once this was done we laid down our own ISO board which is screwed down with the help of a 2-inch diameter plate. We also follow a specific pattern to ensure that the entire board is secure. 

Next, we lay down the rubber, this rubber is secured using a specially-made rubber adhesive. This adhesive is designed to mate the ISO board and rubber together and is extremely sticky creating an amazing bond. In the past, this adhesive needed to be rolled onto the rubber and then had to sit for about 30 minutes so it could tack up but now we can spray the adhesive and apply rubber immediately making the process more streamlined and exact. We also removed the siding on the wall to wrap the rubber up the wall then secured it with adhesive and a termination bar. 

To finish off the roof we add C-6 rake metals all around the edges of the roof and tape all the seams with a special seam tape. This was a small and simple job that took just under half a day, but by the end, the homeowner was ecstatic with the final product and glad they went with Brown Roofing.

The Brown Roofing team re-built this chimney in Oxford, Connecticut. All new bricks were used, along with new mortar, and a new chimney crown. This chimney is looking better than ever, and will maintain its quality for a very long time.
