Roof Replacement Photo Album: Heavy Moss Growth Leads to Full Roof Replacement in Prospect, CT

Prospect homeowner Karen contacted Brown Roofing after noticing heavy moss buildup and signs of roof deterioration. Inspector Rick performed a thorough evaluation and found that years of trapped moisture had caused extensive plywood damage beneath the shingles. After reviewing our process and materials, Karen felt confident moving forward with a full roof replacement. Project Manager Jared and his experienced crew removed the old roofing system, replaced all damaged plywood with new CDX sheets, and installed a complete Brown Roofing protection system featuring deck tape, synthetic underlayment, and ice and water shield. The roof was then finished with IKO Dynasty shingles in Granite Black, a sleek and durable choice backed by our 50-year warranty. The result is a clean, strong, and moss-free roof built to protect for many seasons ahead. Brown Won't Let You Down!

Mossy Madness

Here's a look at Karen's old roof before the replacement. Heavy moss buildup had taken over, holding in moisture and accelerating shingle deterioration. Swipe through to see the stunning transformation!

Preparing for the Teardown

Before removing the old roof, the crew hangs large protective tarps around the home. This helps catch falling debris and keeps the property safe from any accidental damage during teardown.

Down to the Rafters

Upon inspection, the crew discovered extensive plywood damage beneath the shingles, requiring the entire roof to be stripped down to the rafters to ensure a clean, solid rebuild.

New Plywood Is Installed

New sheets of strong CDX plywood were installed to create a sturdy new base. Each sheet was carefully numbered to track exactly how many were replaced for the homeowner's records.

Seams Are Taped & Underlayment Is Installed

The seams of the plywood were sealed with deck tape to meet current building codes, and the entire roof was covered with durable synthetic underlayment, a water-resistant barrier that shields the decking from the elements.

New Shingles Are Installed

Karen selected IKO Dynasty shingles in the timeless shade of Granite Black, one of our most popular colors. These Impact 3-rated shingles are backed by Brown Roofing's 50-year warranty for lasting beauty and protection.
