Santa-Ready Your Roof (Part 2)

• Ice dam protection
  Proper underlayment and ice-and-water shield mean fewer ice dams and safer landings.

“Brown Roofing installs it like they’re gift-wrapping the eaves,” Santa jokes. “No triple-lutz into a snowbank for me.”

• Post-flight condition

“After takeoff I always do a quick look back,” Santa says. “On a Brown Roofing job, every shingle is still nailed down tighter than the lid on the naughty list.”

How to Make Your Roof “Santa Ready”

Fun story aside, a Santa-approved roof is really a winter-ready, family-safe roof. Here’s Santa’s recommended checklist for homeowners:

1. Schedule a Roof Inspection

Before the snow piles up, have Brown Roofing check for:

• Loose, broken, or missing shingles
• Soft spots or rotted decking
• Worn or poorly installed flashing
• Potential leaks waiting to become “indoor rain events”

2. Upgrade to IKO Dynasty Shingles

If your shingles are older than some of the elves, it might be time. With IKO Dynasty installed by Brown Roofing, you get:

• Long-lasting protection
• High-wind performance (up to 130 mph)
• Beautiful color blends and boosted curb appeal
• A roof Santa actually looks forward to landing on

3. Get Your Gutters Off the Naughty List

Santa is trying to land a sleigh, not dodge ice dams and overflowing gutters. Make sure to:

• Clean gutters and downspouts
• Repair or replace sagging or damaged sections
• Ensure water flows away from your foundation and walkways

4. Show the Chimney Some Love

Cracked mortar, loose flashing, or missing caps are all red flags:

“If I see a chimney that hasn’t been touched in years,” Santa warns, “I’m strongly considering the front door.”

Brown Roofing can clean, repair, or rebuild your chimney so it’s safe for both Santa and your fireplace.

Santa’s (Totally Real, Definitely Not Made-Up) Final Endorsement

We asked Santa for his bottom-line opinion on Brown Roofing. Here’s what he had to say:

“There are roofs I land on, and roofs I look forward to landing on. Brown Roofing roofs? Those are the ones I circle on the map.
Clean chimney, sturdy masonry, and IKO Dynasty shingles under my boots… Brown Roofing makes my job easier and your home safer. That’s a Christmas miracle right there.
Brown Roofing: Because even immortals appreciate not breaking their tailbone on Christmas.”

And, of course, he added the line your family already knows:

“Brown Won’t Let You Down.”

Give Santa (and Your Family) the Gift of a Great Roof

Having a Santa-ready roof isn’t just a cute holiday idea. It means:

• Your family stays warm, dry, and safe
• You avoid surprise leaks and mid-winter emergency repairs
• Your home looks fantastic for guests, photos, and holiday lights
• You get peace of mind through every New England storm

So while you’re hanging stockings and setting out cookies, take a second to think about what’s over all that holiday cheer.

If your roof has seen one too many winters, Santa’s advice is simple:

“Call Brown Roofing before I call them for you.”

Because whether it’s Santa, his reindeer, or just a good old-fashioned Connecticut snowstorm landing on your roof this winter…

Brown Won’t Let You Down.
