It was time for a new roof for this Cape Cod style home in Burlington, Connecticut. The old shingles were outdated and had algae growth. This homeowner's choice to install state-of-the-art shingles will provide this home with high-quality protection. Once the Brown Roofing team removed the old shingles, and any damaged wood, they installed new IKO Dynasty shingles. The existing shingles on this home were not overlapped like the new shingles are. This allows water to seep in through the cracks between the shingles. IKO Dynasty shingles force water to slide off of the roof rather than getting in-between the shingles and reaching the wood decking. This can prevent damages such as wood rot, holes, and leaks. In addition, these new shingles have built in algae resistance, which will keep this roof looking as good as new for a long time.
This lovely home in Burlington looks beautiful after a new roof was installed by the Brown Roofing team. New IKO Dynasty shingles were installed, in the color Shadow Brown. These new shingles will provide excellent protection from the elements, keeping this home safe and dry.
This 30+ year old roof inBurlington CT was showing signs of age and damage. Granule lose and lifting shingles were tell-tale signs. The Homeowner worked with Sales Inspector Chase to choose IKO Dynasty Shadow Brown shingles. Project Manager Carlos and Team doing an exceptional job once again on the installation.

Replaced this roof with a IKO lifetime shingle
This roof had a large array of problems that compromised its integrity and strength. These problems consisted of granular loss and color fade due to old age. Along with algae and lichen growth. There were also nail pops all around the roof allowing water to seep into the home.
The first step to this roof replacement was ripping up the old shingles and further inspecting the decking layer below. There were many sheets of plywood that needed to be replaced due to rot and mold.
Once this was done we moved on to the sealing layer. This layer consists of three different materials that work together to seal and protect the decking layer. First, we lay down decking tape and this tape is applied on all the seams created by the plywood and along any of the drip and rake metals. Next is our Sealeron Ice and Water and this is applied to the eaves, rakes, valleys, and walls. lastly, we lay down a synthetic underlayment over anything that is uncovered.
Finally, we could install the shingles and this customer decided on our IKO Dynasty Frostone Gray Shingles. These shingles perfectly complemented the rest of the house and added to the overall beauty of this home. This brand new roof is guaranteed to last for 50 years ensuring the safety of the home and the family inside.
