Nino's General Contracting | General Contractors & Roofing in Westampton, NJ 08060

Absolutely, and it's a key consideration we address here in Westampton. When building an addition or a deck that attaches to your house, improper flashing or sealing at the connection point is a primary cause of moisture intrusion and roof flashing failure. At Nino's, we meticulously integrate new structures with your existing roof system, using correct flashing details and ensuring proper insulation continuity to prevent the moisture issues common in our area.

It's possible, especially for decks attached directly to the house. In Westampton, failed roof flashing above or around the deck ledger board (where the deck meets the house) can allow water to seep into your home's structure, potentially damaging the deck's framing and causing rot. During our deck repair or replacement service, we inspect this critical junction, repair any compromised flashing, and rebuild the deck to properly shed water away from your home, solving two problems at once.

A well-planned addition by Nino's provides an opportunity to correct existing problems. For Westampton homes experiencing attic moisture or poor insulation, we can design the new addition's roof to improve overall attic ventilation and insulation coverage. This holistic approach helps regulate temperature and humidity in your existing attic space, mitigating condensation and moisture buildup that can lead to mold and structural damage, making your entire home more comfortable and efficient.
