These old gutters were thin and had some sagging. This customer chose to have their gutters replaced by the Brown Roofing team. The new Gutter Shutter system installed by our crew is guaranteed to never sag. Not only did this gutter replacement solve the issue of sagging gutters, but it will prevent this issue from reoccurring in the future.
Algae, moss, and lichen once covered this roof, but now beautiful IKO Dynasty shingles make this home look fantastic! This transformation is thanks the efforts of the Brown Roofing team, who preformed a roof replacement for this customer in Hamden. This home had an incredible visual transformation! However, this homeowner might value their home's new grade of safety the most. Summit Gray was the shingle color chosen by our customer for their home's new look.
This old chimney in Hamden needed a lot of help. The chimney crown was almost fully eroded, the flue was damaged, and the mortar was aged and weakened. Once the Brown Roofing team re-built this chimney, this chimney's problems were solved. This chimney can now preform its job well, all while losing great.
This homeowner worked with Inspector Chase and Project Manager William to choose IKO Dynasty W/ ArmourZone Shingles in Frostone Gray.
Brown Won't Let You Down!
This job was massive, this roof was over 4,800 square feet with complicated gable dormers. There were spots all around the front side of the home that were covered in lichen. Even on a hot sunny day, the front of the roof remained cool and damp which signified that there was major water damage within the roof.
The first thing that we did was rip up the old shingles. After that, we could take a better look at the decking layer below. Sure enough, the roots of the lichen reached the plywood allowing water to seep through into the home. This water causes the decking layer to rot and mold over time.
Next, we ripped up every rotting piece of plywood and replaced them with brand-new sheets of plywood. Once this was done we laid down decking tape, Sealeron Ice and Water, and a synthetic underlayment. These three layers help insulate the home and they also help seal the home from the elements.
Finally, we can install the shingles and flashings. When installing the shingles we always start at the bottommost edge so the shingles overlap properly. We install the flashings over any openings in the roof like vents and chimneys, but we also install them anywhere the shingles meet the siding.
Now that this customer has a brand new roof they can have peace of mind knowing that their home will be safe and sound all year round.
