Montes Framing & Construcción | Roofing Services in Houston, TX 77060

When we construct an addition, we integrate the new roof section seamlessly with your existing structure. This is a critical opportunity to address pre-existing problems like poor insulation or corroded flashing at the connection points. We ensure proper ventilation and use moisture-resistant materials from the start, preventing the common local issues of trapped moisture and corrosion that can lead to leaks and higher energy bills.

Absolutely, and it's a key consideration in our humid climate. A sagging or poorly drained deck can direct water toward your home's foundation and lower roof sections, exacerbating flashing corrosion. During any deck repair or replacement, we assess the drainage and sealant at the house-to-deck interface. We ensure the new structure directs water away, protecting your roof's flashing and preventing moisture from compromising the adjacent walls and insulation.

We recommend composite decking or pressure-treated lumber with proper sealing for maximum durability against humidity and rain. More importantly, we design and build the deck's substructure with adequate slope and drainage to channel water away from your home. This prevents pooling water from accelerating corrosion on nearby roof flashing and foundation, which are common sources of leaks. Using the right materials and techniques protects both your new deck and your entire home.
