Photo Album: Craftsmanship Meets Quality Roofing in Cheshire, CT

Inspector Darwin met with homeowner Ewa in Cheshire after she reached out to Brown Roofing about replacing her roof. Together, they came up with the perfect plan—pairing the highest quality materials with top-tier craftsmanship you can only find in Western Connecticut. Once everything was lined up, Project Manager Bill and his expert crew jumped into action. They laid down a strong protective underlayment and finished it off with sleek, ultra-durable IKO Dynasty shingles. Now Ewa can rest easy knowing her home is protected by a roof that’s not just beautiful, but built to last for decades! Brown Won't Let You Down!

The Teardown Begins

The crew kicks things off by carefully tearing all of the old shingles off of the roof. Underneath the old shingles is a layer of plywood called the roof sheathing. This is the structural foundation of the roof.

Bad Plywood Is Removed

As the structural foundation of the roof, the health of the sheathing is essential. The entire surface is examined closely for evidence of damage, like rot or mold, and those sections are removed.

New Plywood Is Installed

Durable new 1/2" plywood is installed, replacing the removed damaged sections of the roof, securing a solid and strong base for the new shingles.

Seams Are Taped & Underlayment Is Installed

The seams of each sheet in the sheathing are taped up with all-weather deck tape. After that, a layer of underlayment is installed over the entire surface. This thin, waterproof membrane protects the plywood from harsh elements like rain, snow, and ice.

New Shingles Are Installed

Now it's time to install the new shingles! For her new roof, Ewa has selected the stunning shade of Brownstone from our premium-laminated IKO Dynasty collection. These sleek, heavyweight shingles are proudly backed by Brown Roofing's 50-year guarantee!

New Flashing Is Installed on the Chimney

New flashing is installed around the edges of the chimney where it meets the roof. This thin metal barrier prevents water from seeping into the junction and causing moisture damage.

The Finished Look

After a few finishing touches, such as installing shingles over the ridge vent and securing flashing around the vents and skylights, Ewa's new roof is complete and looking fantastic!
