Village Craft Builders | General Contractors & Roofing in Cotuit, MA 02635

Not when done correctly. At Village Craft Builders, we carefully plan any addition or attached deck to ensure proper integration with your existing roofline and drainage. We assess and mitigate potential spots where snow accumulation and ice dams could form, protecting the entire structure. For new construction, we specify roofing materials and ventilation best suited for Cotuit's winters.

It's possible. Moss growth on roofs can lead to moisture retention and rot in the roof sheathing and framing, which may extend to connected structures like a deck ledger board. During our deck repair assessment in Cotuit, we always check the adjacent roof and house interface for related water damage. Addressing the roof moss is often a crucial part of ensuring a lasting deck repair.

It's a smart time to evaluate. A deck replacement offers clear access to the home's siding and eaves. Our team can inspect the roof edge and recommend coordinated upgrades, such as installing ice and water shield under new roofing or improving attic ventilation. This proactive approach during a deck project can prevent future ice dam damage and protect your new investment.
