Before the Transformation
25+ year-old moss-stained roof in Westport
Why the Homeowner Was Concerned
This close-up shows the old roof's staining and discoloration, common signs of age, moisture retention, algae, and moss activity on older shingles.
Safe Tear-Off and Property Protection
Large tarps helped guide old shingles and debris away from the home during tear-off, keeping the work area organized and helping protect the property below.
Old Shingles Come Off
Removing the worn shingles exposed the roof deck and allowed the team to check for hidden issues before installing the new roofing materials.
A Full-Roof Reset Begins
The old roofing was removed so the Brown Roofing team could inspect the wood underneath and rebuild the roof system the right way from the deck up.
Sealing the Roof Deck
Blue deck tape was applied over the plywood seams to help block wind-driven rain and add another layer of leak protection under the shingles.
A Full-Roof Reset Begins

Underlayment Goes Down
Synthetic underlayment was installed over the roof deck, creating a protective barrier between the wood and the new shingles.
Detail Work on a Steep Section
The crew carefully worked on a steep roof area, tying in underlayment and shingles so this smaller section receives the same protection as the main roof.
Protecting the Vulnerable Edges
Ice and water protection was installed along the lower roof edges, where melting snow and rain are most likely to back up and cause leaks.
IKO Dynasty Glacier Installation
The new IKO Dynasty Glacier shingles were installed, giving this Westport home a clean, updated look with a durable roofing system built for the weather.
A Finished Roof from Above
From the drone view, the new shingle pattern shows how the full roof was tied together across multiple roof sections for a clean, complete finish.
