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.
The Brown Roofing team repaired this roof for a returning customer. The area shown above used to house a skylight. Thanks to our incredible team, no one can tell that there was once a skylight here, it looks as good as new!
Middlebury homeowner and longtime member of the Brown Roofing family, Bill, reached out after a recent windstorm tore a few shingles from his roof. We originally replaced his roof in 2017, so we were more than happy to honor our 50-year warranty and take care of the repair right away. Our service crew quickly installed new ridge cap shingles that matched perfectly, and while there, they inspected the rest of the roof and confirmed it was still in excellent shape. It’s always a pleasure to reconnect with returning customers like Bill, and we’re proud to keep standing by our work years down the line. Brown Won't Let You Down!
Project Manager Bill and his skilled crew headed out to Torrington to fix the garage roof for homeowners Michael and Chelsea after a tree caused some serious damage. With expertise and efficiency, the team replaced the damaged plywood with strong new 1/2" CDX plywood, installed protective underlayment, and finished it off with gorgeous, heavyweight shingles. No more worries, no more tarps - just a roof built to last! Brown Won't Let You Down!
The customer had issues with ice dams and hired another roofing company to install a roof the problem was not remedied. The issue with this roof was that the two bedrooms in the rear of the house did not have much room between the sheet rock and the roof deck for the proper amount of insulation.
