Barnes and son construction | Roofing Services in Chickamauga, GA 30707

Absolutely. When we build an addition or a new deck, we always assess how it connects to your existing roof structure. In our area, issues like shingle curling or granule loss can be exacerbated by improper flashing or drainage changes. Our team ensures seamless integration, reinforcing roof edges and updating flashing to prevent future leaks and protect against the local weather patterns that cause these common problems.

Yes, we often see related issues. A deteriorating deck can allow moisture to seep toward the home's foundation and siding, which can indirectly impact roof drainage and eaves. During a deck repair or replacement, we'll also do a courtesy roof inspection, checking for those telltale local signs like granule loss in your gutters or curled shingles. Addressing both areas together helps protect your entire home's exterior efficiently.

Protecting your existing roof is a priority. We use careful techniques and coverings to shield shingles from debris and foot traffic during the deck replacement process. Since Chickamauga roofs are prone to granule loss, we take extra precautions to avoid any unnecessary abrasion. Post-construction, we also check that the new deck's layout doesn't create water runoff issues that could accelerate shingle wear on the lower roof sections.
