Photo Album: Naugatuck, CT Neighbors Get a Nice New Roof

Naugatuck homeowners Kathy and Andrew contacted Brown Roofing after discovering a leak and learning their existing roof was no longer sealing properly. During the inspection, Austin found that the shingles had lost their adhesive bond, leaving the home vulnerable to water intrusion. Project Manager Bill and the crew removed the aging roofing system, inspected the plywood decking, and replaced any damaged sections with new CDX plywood. The roof was then protected with ice and water shield in critical areas, along with Velora One synthetic underlayment for a durable, breathable barrier. To complete the project, the team installed IKO Dynasty architectural shingles in Castle Gray — an Impact-3 rated shingle backed by Brown Roofing’s 50-year warranty — and finished with new chimney flashing to ensure long-term leak protection. The result is a strong, reliable roofing system built to protect the home for decades to come. Brown Won't Let You Down!

The Roof Before

Here's what Kathy and Andrew's roof looked like before the renovation. Swipe through to see the transformation!

Before: Loose Shingles

During the inspection, Inspector Austin found that the shingles could be lifted by hand - a clear sign that the adhesive seal had failed and the roof was no longer protecting the home properly.

The Teardown Begins

The crew begins by carefully stripping away all of the old shingles. Before work starts, large tarps are placed around the home to protect the property and allow for a clean, efficient teardown.

The Decking Is Exposed

With the shingles removed, the plywood decking is exposed. This layer serves as the structural foundation of the roof.

Bad Plywood Is Removed

The decking is thoroughly inspected for signs of rot, mold, or decay. Any compromised sections are removed and replaced with brand-new CDX plywood to ensure a solid base.

Seams Are Taped & Ice and Water Shield Is Installed

All plywood seams are sealed with all-weather deck tape to meet current building codes. Ice and water shield is installed from the eaves up six feet, as well as in valleys and around roof penetrations. The remaining decking is covered with Velora One synthetic underlayment for full protection.

Underlayment Is Completed & New Shingles Are Installed

It's time for new shingles! Kathy and Andrew chose IKO Dynasty shingles in the sleek shade of Castle Gray. These Impact-3 rated architectural shingles are backed by Brown Roofing's 50-year warranty.
