Roof Replacement Photo Album: Transforming a 35-Year-Old Roof in Sandy Hook, CT with Top-of-the-Line Materials

Donna from Sandy Hook reached out to the Brown Roofing team after her insurance company told her she needed to get a new roof as soon as possible. While she hadn't experienced any leaks, her roof was definitely showing its age after 35 years, with discoloration and heavy moss growth on her beautiful, forested property. She knew that she could trust Brown Roofing to do the best job! Sales specialist and roofing expert Tyler worked closely with Donna to create the perfect plan for her dream roof. Once the plan was set, Project Manager Austin and his expert crew were excited to get started, bringing top-tier materials and craftsmanship to ensure the job was done right. Now, Donna - and her insurance company - can breathe easy knowing her new roof, backed by our 50-year warranty, will stay strong, beautiful, and ready to last another 35 years, plus 15 more! Brown Won't Let You Down!

The Teardown Begins

The crew begins by carefully stripping off the old shingles. Beneath them lies the roof's sheathing, made of multiple sheets of plywood. Once the shingles are removed, the sheathing is thoroughly inspected for any signs of rot, decay, or mold.

Sheathing Seams Are Taped

Damaged or rotted areas of the sheathing are removed and replaced with fresh plywood. Then, the seams of the plywood sheets are reinforced with heavy-duty, all-weather deck tape for added durability.

Underlayment Is Applied

Underlayment is installed to the entire surface of the sheathing. This is a thin, water-resistant layer of synthetic felt that shields the sheathing from harsh elements such as rain, snow, or ice.

New Shingles Are Installed

Next, it's time for the new shingles to be installed! Brown Roofing trusts the superior quality of IKO Dynasty premium-laminated shingles for all of our roofing endeavors. These shingles come in a variety of colors, and Donna has selected the beautiful shade of Brownstone for her new roof.

Once all the shingles are installed, the crew wraps up by adding ridge vents for proper airflow and installing flashing around the pipes. With that, Donna's new roof is all set and complete!
