Roof Replacement Photo Album: Beautiful New Roof Built to Last in Seymour, CT

Inspector Brand made his way out to a local home right here in our hometown of Seymour, CT, after homeowner Kevin reached out for a roof consultation. After a thorough inspection, Brand determined that a full roof replacement was the best path forward—and once Kevin learned about the premium materials we use and the expert craftsmanship we bring to every job, he was excited to get started. Project Manager Bill and his crew jumped into action, removing the old shingles, replacing sections of the sheathing where needed, installing strong protective underlayment, and finishing it all off with stunning new IKO Dynasty shingles. Now, Kevin’s roof is not only beautiful but built to last for decades to come. Brown Won't Let You Down!

The Roof Before

Here's a look at Kevin's roof before the renovation. Click through to see the stunning transformation!

Preparing for the Teardown

Before the crew starts the teardown, they hang up large tarps from the edges of the roof to catch the falling debris as well as ensure full protection of the homeowner's property. This makes the cleanup process at the end a far more efficient process.

The Sheathing Is Exposed

Underneath the old shingles is a layer of plywood called the sheathing. This is the structural foundation of the roof.

New Plywood Is Installed

As the structural foundation of the roof, the health of the sheathing is crucial. Any sections that show evidence of damage, such as rot or mold, are removed and replaced with sturdy new CDX plywood.

Seams Are Taped & Underlayment Is Installed

The seams of each sheet of plywood are taped up with all-weather deck tape. After that, underlayment is installed over the entire surface. This thin, water-resistant material shields the sheathing from harsh elements that could cause moisture damage, such as rain, snow, and ice.

Ready for New Shingles

Drip edge flashing is installed around all of the edges of the roof. This thin metal barrier prevents water from seeping under the fascia, instead directing it towards the gutters. The flashing is also taped at the seam with deck tape, and now we're ready to install the new shingles!

New Shingles Are Installed

For his new roof, Kevin has selected the sleek shade of Glacier from our premium-laminated IKO Dynasty collection to perfectly complement his light-sided home.

Ridge Vent Is Installed

A shingle vent is installed along all of the ridges of Kevin's roof. This vent allows proper air circulation, allowing hot, moist air rising from the house to escape, eliminating damaging condensation buildup.
