Aging Flashing
This close-up shows old chimney flashing with visible wear and staining. Replacing these vulnerable areas helps prevent future leaks around the chimney.
Decking Inspection After Tear-Off
With the old shingles removed, the crew can clearly inspect the wood roof deck. Any weak or damaged areas must be addressed before the new roof is installed.
Old Roof Removed
The crew has removed the aging shingles and exposed the wood underneath. This step lets Brown Roofing check the roof deck before installing the new roofing system.
Protective Layers Going Down
New underlayment and ice & water shield (along the gutter line) being installed across the roof. This layer helps protect the home from wind-driven rain before the shingles are added.
Attention to The Chimney Section
The crew is working around the chimney, one of the most common places for roof leaks. Proper flashing helps guide water away from the brick and roof opening.
Skylight Protection
The skylight area is being prepared with protective materials before shingles are installed. Skylights need careful waterproofing because water naturally flows around them.
Shingles Begin Transforming the Roof
The new IKO Cambridge Harvard Slate shingles are being installed section by section. This gives the home a fresh look while restoring dependable weather protection.
Finished Roof from the Backyard
The new shingles help bring the home back into shape for insurance requirements.
