Common Questions
Can a deck replacement or new construction help protect my home from roof-related water issues?
Absolutely. Properly designed and constructed decks, especially those attached to your home, play a key role in managing water runoff. Our team at Hernández Construction ensures your new or replacement deck is built with correct grading, flashing, and drainage to direct water away from your foundation and siding. This is crucial in our area, as aging roofs with nail pops or failing shingles can shed more water, and a well-built deck system helps mitigate potential secondary damage to your Sylva home.
We have roof nail pops and some leaking. Do you handle both the roof repair and any potential interior carpenter work needed?
Yes, we offer a complete solution. Our roofing specialists will first repair the roof nail pops and replace damaged shingles to stop the leak at its source. Then, our carpentry team can assess and repair any interior damage to ceilings, walls, or trim caused by water intrusion. This integrated approach saves you time and ensures the repair is seamless, from the exterior roof down to the interior finishes, all handled by our coordinated crews here in Sylva.
My deck needs repair, and my roof is getting old. Should I address these projects in a certain order?
For the best protection and value, we generally recommend addressing the roof first. In our Sylva climate, an aging roof with compromised shingles is a primary defense against the elements. By securing your roof first, you protect the significant investment of a new or repaired deck from potential water damage from above. Our team can provide a comprehensive assessment and create a phased plan that prioritizes your home's envelope integrity, often allowing us to schedule the projects efficiently back-to-back.
