Roof Replacement Before & After Photos

These homeowners in West Haven, CT loved their home but knew that the exterior was in such bad shape that something needed to be done. After giving the homeowner's a free estimate they felt confident enough to hire us to replace the siding and roofing of the home! The results were amazing and the homeowners were thrilled with the quality of the work!

The wind and saltwater air of Long Island Sound had taken it's toll on the roof of this West Haven property. Project Manager Austin and his brigade tore up the old roof, replaced the decking, taped the seams, installed ice & water shield, underlayment and laid down IKO dynasty Biscayne shingles.

This homeowner has a leak around their skylight. Brown Roofing came to the rescue, by removing the old skylight, and installing an all new skylight with new flashing. The Brown Roofing team removed the shingles from around the skylight, and replaced them with the closest color match in order to achieve a great look.

This home had many issues with it's roof, some were primarily cosmetic and others were compromising. Due to this, we needed to replace the roof right away and we started with the demo.

Ripping the old shingles off was first, we needed to see what condition the decking layer was in and how much of it needed replacing. Surprisingly this roof's decking layer was in excellent condition and we only needed to replace one small section of it. Next, we started on the sealing layer where we laid down 3 separate materials to create a breathable yet water-tight seal on the home. First, we use strip tape over all the seams made by the plywood and along any other edge or seam. Next is our Sealeron Ice and Water, which is laid down on the roof most vulnerable areas like valleys and lower edges. Finally, a synthetic underlayment is laid down over the remaining uncovered decking layer.

Now we can move on to the last step which is installing the flashings and shingles. The flashings are installed in vulnerable openings in your roof like chimneys and skylights. The shingles need to be installed in such a way as to ensure that they do not have any compromising gaps between the pieces. To accomplish this we always start at the bottommost corner of a roof and work our way up and across layering and nailing each shingle.

By the end of the day this roof was completed and the homeowner was ecstatic about their brand-new roof that looked absolutely stunning.
