Chapple Bros Roofing | Roofing Services in Johnstown, PA 15905

Absolutely. When we build a deck or addition in Johnstown, we integrate it with your existing roof structure to ensure proper water drainage. Improper connections are a common cause of leaks after snowmelt. Our team designs and constructs additions with seamless flashing and correct slope to channel water away from your home, protecting both the new structure and your original roof from the freeze-thaw cycles common in our area.

It's often wise to address both. In Johnstown, granule loss indicates an aging roof that may need replacement. If your deck is attached to the house, its ledger board is secured to the roof's framing. A full roof replacement provides the perfect opportunity to inspect, repair, or replace the deck's connection point to ensure it's watertight. We can coordinate deck repair or replacement alongside roofing work, saving you time and ensuring comprehensive protection against future leaks.

Proper deck construction is key to managing roof runoff. In our area, snowmelt and rain from a compromised roof can pool around your foundation. When we build or repair a deck, we ensure it has adequate ground clearance and grading underneath to promote drainage away from your home. For decks directly under roof edges, we install gutters and downspouts as part of the project to control water flow, reducing the risk of basement moisture that often stems from roof-related drainage issues.
