The roof on this Beacon Falls home showed signs of lichen and granulation loss on the majority of the roof. After the inspection the home opted to replace the entire roof replacement with IKO Dynasty Summit Gray Shingles
The old roof appears to be aging with slight discoloration. The homeowner chose to replace the roof using IKO Dynasty Granite Black Shingles.
Before: The original roof was showing heavy age and wear, with widespread discoloration, organic growth, and shingles that appeared worn down and tired across multiple sections. On a roof with this many transitions, penetrations, and chimney flashing details, that kind of deterioration creates vulnerable areas where water can work its way in, putting the home in jeopardy of roof leaks.
After: The transformation is night and day. The home is now protected with IKO Dynasty Biscayne shingles, giving the roof a clean, dimensional appearance with sharp lines and fresh, fortified protection across every slope. Even better, this new roofing system is backed by The Brown Roofing Promise, a 50 year no leak guarantee.
Our team took care of this customer's leaking skylights and vents and we replaced the roof. The first step is to rip up the old shingles and get a better look at the decking layer below. Once we inspected the layer below and determined that we only needed to replace a few sheets of plywood we could then move on. Next, we laid down a synthetic underlayment and Sealoron Ice and Water. After this, we moved on to the new shingles and flashings. This homeowner decided on our IKO Dynasty Froststone Gray Shingles which matched perfectly with the rest of their home.
This home was simple and a pleasure to work on, the shallow pitch and rectangular form decreased the work time drastically. The biggest culprit when it comes to job completion time is all the little intricacies built into the roof. If you had a roof that was 20 squares but it was a simple rectangle roof it would most likely take less time to replace than a roof that was 10 squares and had a lot of skylights, windows, and other intricacies. For this roof, we only had to replace a few sections on the existing decking layer. This brought down costs and saved the customer money. Once the decking layer was done we installed the underlayment and Ice and Water. Next was the shingles, the homeowner decided on our IKO Dynasty Granite Black. These looked amazing on their house and matched perfectly.
