J & D Team Renovation | Roofing Services in New Windsor, NY 12553

While a deck doesn't directly cause a roof leak, proper construction is crucial. For decks attached to the house, our team ensures the ledger board flashing integrates seamlessly with your home's siding and roofing system. This prevents water from being directed behind your walls or into roof valleys, a common source of leaks we see in New Windsor homes. We build decks with long-term water management in mind.

Absolutely. In many New Windsor homes, decks built around or beneath chimneys can complicate drainage and access. Damaged deck boards or poor drainage can trap moisture against the chimney base, accelerating flashing deterioration. Our deck repair and replacement services include assessing the entire area. We can rebuild the deck structure to improve water runoff and provide safe, clear access for any necessary chimney flashing repairs, addressing the root of the problem.

This is a critical step we take very seriously. During a deck replacement, we meticulously remove the old ledger board and inspect the house sheathing and existing flashings for any hidden water damage—often the start of those pesky valley or flashing leaks. We then install a new ledger with proper, code-compliant flashing that is integrated behind the house siding and waterproofing layer. This creates a sealed barrier, ensuring your beautiful new deck doesn't become a source of future roofing headaches.
