Before & After Photos

Cracked and curled shingles. Organic Growth. This roof was well past its prime and in need of replacement rather than repair. This homeowner opted for a brand new standing seam metal roof.

A Watertown homeowner contacted Brown Roofing after noticing that the roof was beginning to fail. The shingles were breaking down with age, and the chimney had been sealed with caulk instead of real flashing. Inspector Dennis walked her through the issues and explained what a proper, long-term solution would look like. Under the direction of Project Manager Jared, the crew removed the old roofing, replaced sections of damaged tongue-and-groove decking with fresh CDX plywood, and installed a modern underlayment system. The new roof was finished with IKO Dynasty shingles in Biscayne, along with professionally installed metal chimney flashing and a new cricket to channel water away from the chimney base. The result is a roof that not only looks sharp, but is now correctly built and fully protected for decades ahead. Brown Won't Let You Down!

This customer in Middlebury had us install IKO Dynasty Granite Black Shingles.

This homeowner needed help with their beautiful stone chimney. The Brown Roofing team repointed the chimney by removing damaged mortar, and replacing it with new mortar. The pictures above show a close up of damaged motor, and a full view of the finished chimney. 

This home needed a simple chimney reflashing. There are a few steps to this process to ensure that the chimney is water-tight. We first start by removing the surrounding shingles and taking off the old flashing. If there is any damaged wood we would replace it but in this case there was none. Then we clean the area by removing any dirt, debris, old caulking, and mortar. Next, we install our Sealeron Ice and Water around and up the sides of the chimney.

Then we step flash and re-shingle up the roof. How does this work, well we start by laying the flashing on the front of the chimney in an L shape with one side running up the chimney and the other side running along the decking. Next, we run this flashing up the sides of the chimney in the same way while also re-shingling the exposed underlayments. Then, we counter-flash the entire chimney to ensure that water is effectively diverted away from the chimney. Lastly, we caulk any seams that may be exposed.
