Keltner Construction | General Contractors & Roofing in Flushing, MI 48433

While a deck or addition itself doesn't prevent ice dams, proper construction is crucial. At Keltner Construction, we ensure all new structures, like building additions and decks, are integrated correctly with your existing roofline and drainage system. This prevents creating new areas where snow can accumulate and melt unevenly, which is a primary cause of ice dams. Proper design and expert installation help maintain consistent roof temperatures and water flow away from your Flushing home.

Address the roof and gutter issue first. Overflowing gutters, a common problem in Flushing, mean water is not being channeled away properly, which will continue to damage any new deck repair or replacement. We recommend starting with a roofing and gutter assessment. Once the water management system is functioning correctly, we can then assess and perform the necessary deck repair or full replacement to ensure a dry, stable, and long-lasting outdoor space.

For many Flushing homes, recurring water damage from roof runoff or ice dams can compromise a deck's structure beyond surface issues. A simple repair might not address rot or weakened supports hidden from view. A professional deck replacement by Keltner Construction allows us to rebuild with proper materials, drainage considerations, and techniques suited for our local climate. This not only solves the immediate damage but also creates a more resilient deck that can better handle future seasonal challenges, protecting your investment.
