Roof Replacement Photo Album: Beautiful New Roof Upgrade in Naugatuck, CT

Inspector Brand headed out to Naugatuck to meet with homeowner Steve, who was ready for a full roof replacement. As a returning Brown Roofing customer, Steve already knew he’d be in great hands—and he was absolutely right! With our unbeatable combination of top-tier materials and expert craftsmanship, we were ready to deliver. Once Brand and Steve finalized the plan, Project Manager Noel and his talented crew got to work. They removed the old shingles, replaced any damaged plywood in the sheathing, installed durable new underlayment, and topped it all off with stunning IKO Dynasty shingles—on both the house and the garage. Now, Steve’s roof is looking sharp, built to last, and ready for anything! Brown Won't Let You Down!

The Roof Before

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

The Decking Is Examined

The crew tears off all of the the old shingles, revealing the layer of plywood underneath, which is called the decking. This is the structural foundation of the roof.

New Plywood Is Installed

As the structural foundation of the roof, the plywood must be in healthy condition before the new shingles can go on. Any sections found damaged, like rotted or moldy, and removed and replaced with brand-new sturdy CDX plywood.

Seams Are Taped & Underlayment Is Installed

With the new plywood securely nailed into place, the seams of every sheet of plywood are taped up with all-weather deck tape. After that, underlayment is installed over the entire surface. This thin, waterproof membrane protects the sheathing from harmful elements like rain, snow, and ice.

Drip Edge Flashing Is Installed

A drip edge flashing is installed around all of the edges of the roof. This thin metal barrier prevents water from seeping into the roof. Instead, the water is directed away from the fascia and into the gutters.

New Shingles Go On

Now it's time for the new shingles! To perfectly complement Steve's sleek army green siding, he has selected the gorgeous shade of Granite Black from our premium-laminated IKO Dynasty collection. These heavyweight architectural shingles are proudly backed by our 50-year warranty.

New Flashing for the Chimney

A new flashing is installed around the sides of the chimney where it meets the roof. Much like the drip edge flashing, this is a thin metal meant to direct water away from the junction and prevent inner moisture damage.
