Roof Replacement Photo Album: Prospect, CT Home Gets a Picture-Perfect New Roof

When Steven in Prospect decided it was time for a new roof, he knew exactly who to call. His parents had trusted Brown Roofing years ago, and he had just watched his neighbor get a brand-new roof from us - so the choice was easy! Inspector Geoff headed out to walk him through the process, ensuring he got the best materials and top-tier craftsmanship. Then, Project Manager Noel and his expert crew got to work, reinforcing the sheathing, installing protective underlayment, and topping it all off with stunning new shingles. Now, Steven’s roof is built to last, looking fantastic, and - just like his parents' and neighbor’s - backed by our 50-year warranty! Brown Won't Let You Down!

The Old Roof

Here's what Steven's roof looked like before the makeover. Click through to see the awesome transformation!

The Teardown

The crew kicks things off by stripping away the old shingles. To keep the homeowner's property fully protected, they lay down large tarps around the house and yard. This not only prevents debris from causing any damage but also makes cleanup a breeze!

The Sheathing

Underneath the old shingles is a layer of plywood called the roof sheathing. This is the structural foundation of the roof. Any areas found with damage, such as rot or mold, are removed and replaced with brand-new sturdy CDX plywood.

The Underlayment

All of the plywood sheets are taped at the seams with Sealoron XT deck tape. Then, underlayment is installed over the entire surface. This is a thin, waterproof material that protects the sheathing from rough elements like rain, wind, snow, or ice.

The New Shingles

Now it's time to install the new shingles! For his new roof, Steven has selected the beautiful shade of Summit Gray from the prestigious and premium-laminated IKO Dynasty collection.

The New Roof

A shingle vent and cap are installed along all of the ridges of the roof, and the chimney and roof pipes are secured with strong flashing. Now the new roof is complete!
