This homeowner in Milford, Connecticut noticed a leak in their roof. To solve this problem, the Brown Roofing team re-flashed this chimney. This new lead step flashing will better protect this chimney, and prevent water from seeping in through this area.
The Brown Roofing team replaced the siding on this home in Milford. This customer was able to achieve a new version of the look that they already loved for their home. They chose the color Cream, which is similar to the original color of the home. Our team sought out the help of an electrician to remove and re-install the wires and boxes on this side of the home, while the crew worked on installing the new siding. Now, this home looks as good as new, while still preserving the original style of the home.
This home looks fantastic after the Brown Roofing team installed a brand new roof. The new color o the new IKO Dynasty shingles, Summit Gray, perfectly complements the color of this home. This building is now both full of charm and character, and protected by high-quality materials.
For this massive job it was all hands on deck, this was one of the biggest we have ever done. The church wanted a full roof replacement which meant ripping up all the old shingles along with the underlayment and then the decking layer. Once all the old materials were up we got to work laying down the new plywood decking layer, after this we put down Ice and Water along all the edges, valleys and peaks. Next we laid down the underlayment which acts as another layer of protection from the elements. lastly the shingles were installed and the church choose our IKO Dynasty Summit Gray Shingles which looked amazing and complemented the rest of the building.
For this home, we did a full roof replacement, the first step to this was inspecting the damage. This home was suffering from old age and algae growth. Next, we ripped up the old shingles to inspect the damage underneath, and to no surprise, there was rot on the decking layer. To fix this we ripped the old boards and checked to see if the rafters were also rotting, and luckily they were not. After this, we installed a brand new decking layer with ¾ sheets of plywood to ensure the rigidity of this roof. Next, we laid down decking tape, Sealeron Ice and Water, and a synthetic underlayment. These three layers not only act as another layer of protection for the roof but also as an insulator, creating a more energy-efficient home. Finally, we can install the shingles and the way we install them is by starting at the bottommost edge and working our way up. We layer them in this way to ensure that water is properly directed off the roof and not under the singles. As we work our way up the roof we also install flashings on any openings in the roof like vents and chimneys. We also install them anywhere shingles meet the siding. We made sure to complete this roof in just one day to ensure that we impeded the least on this homeowner's daily routine. Now they have a brand new roof and can be confident knowing that their home will be safe and sound all year round!
