There are some instances where a roof can be built over an existing deck.
However, it is not likely that Archadeck could just show up at your home and start building a roof on top of your deck. Open-air decks are not typically built with a future roof addition in mind. There are situations, where additional structural support can be added in order to support the weight of a new roof. Here are a few great ways that you can have the covered deck you long for!

Build a new deck now, plan a deck roof later.
Archadeck of Greater Denver works with each client to fulfill their outdoor living needs within the budget they have allotted. Some of our clients build their dream outdoor combination spaces in phases. They might build a new deck this year, an adjoining patio next year, and so on. We can help you plan for a cover on your new deck by adding proper support for a future roof or pergola addition.

Build a deck roof without attaching it to the existing deck.
There are situations that allow Archadeck of Greater Denver and the Foothills’ design-build team to install a roof as a completely separate structure than the deck. This would mean that the roof could be attached to your home on one side, and have its own post supports on the outside corners. This is a great way to add a roof to an existing deck.
