Photo Album: Mother-in-Law Suite Roof Replacement in Brookfield, CT

Dorothy and Cliff in Brookfield reached out to Brown Roofing to give their mother-in-law suite a roof makeover. After about 10 years of wear and tear, the old roof was definitely showing its age. Project Manager Carlos and his crew were excited to take on the project and did so with expert precision. They replaced old plywood sheathing, added a durable underlayment, and topped it off with stunning new IKO Dynasty premium-laminated shingles. Now Dorothy and Cliff can rest easy knowing their mother-in-law suite is not only beautiful but also protected for many years to come! Brown Won't Let You Down!

The Roof Before

Here's what the roof looked like before the transformation - definitely seen better days after years of rough weather. Click through to see the amazing makeover!

Old Shingles Are Removed

The crew kicks things off by carefully stripping off the old shingles. This reveals the layer of plywood underneath, which is called the roof sheathing.

Bad Plywood Is Removed

As the structural foundation of the roof, the sheathing needs to be in tip-top shape. Any parts that are found with damage like rot or mold - such as this sheet here - are promptly removed and replaced with brand-new sturdy CDX plywood.

Underlayment Is Installed

Next, a layer of underlayment is installed over the entire surface. This thin, waterproof membrane protects the sheathing from harsh elements like rain, wind, snow, or ice.

New Shingles Are Installed

Now, it's finally time to start installing the new shingles! Brown Roofing stands by the superior quality of IKO Dynasty premium-laminated architectural. These shingles come in a variety of colors. Dorothy and Cliff have chosen the sleek shade of Summit Gray for their new roof.

The Roof After

After a couple finishing touches like securing the flashing around the base of the pipes and installing a ridge vent for proper airflow, Dorothy and Cliff's new roof is complete!
