Under Deck Systems

Yes, our roof system is easily installed on virtually any existing OR new deck. Since product installation takes place entirely underneath the existing deck, no deck boards or any existing deck structure needs to be changed.

We offer white, tan, bronze, gray. All of our colors are low gloss Polyester finishes.

Ceiling can be disassembled and removed if required. This is an important feature so that decks can be repaired or changed structurally and reinstalled without any loss of material. We have seen other products that have to be removed and scrapped because they cannot be reinstalled. *Note: Other systems install on the joists of the deck with screws or nails, which renders them worthless if they have to be removed.

Panels are self sealing. Mitered joints and downspout connections are sealed with urethane caulk. The Gutter/support system is sealed to the structure with polyurethane caulk.

All wood installed is Pressure Treated. Wood is installed with ACQ and MCQ approved, galvanized fasteners.

Our ceiling and gutter system is extremely low maintenance while still very accessible to the homeowner. Due to our Clearspan design, most debris will collect in the front gutter and wash out of the downspouts. If you see or think there is a clog, the first notice of this will be debris in the gutter opening to the downspout. Simply push up the panel over the downspout and check the opening. If it is clear, lower the panel and check again in a few months. If the opening is clogged, clear the debris from each downspout opening and place a garden hose in the center of the gutter to flush any remaining debris. Also, you can contact our team directly and we will have a Certified Installer come to your home and inspect your system.

Our system attaches to the support posts of the deck and to your home. It DOES NOT ATTACH TO THE JOISTS OF THE DECK. Integrated in our Clearspan design is a clear airspace between the bottom of your deck and the top of the ceiling across the entire system. We maintain a void between 4 to 7 inches from the bottom of the joists to the top of our system, which allows air to circulate and dry out the entire area. We do not attach to the joists of the deck because this void then would not be possible.

Other companies may attach metal, plastic, or other material that catches water and debris to wood (even if the wood is pressure treated) that will eventually cause dry rot and premature aging.

Special Note: ACQ & MCQ PRESSURE TREATED WOOD AND COMPATABILITY WITH ALUMINUM. Over the last few years there has been a proliferation of companies getting into the Underdeck business. Many are choosing to install pre-painted Aluminum which is readily available from Gutter Supply Houses and gives those companies a ready source for material. Prior to December 31, 2004, the use of Aluminum in an Underdeck Ceiling was acceptable; however, after that date, the Federal Government mandated that Pressure Treated Lumber no longer be treated with Arsenic as the preservative and instead Copper was to be used as the preservative agent. Those changes were made effective January 1, 2005 and all lumber was replaced at that time. The new specification for Pressure Treated is ACQ which stands for Alkaline Copper Quaternary. This new treatment is much safer for workers and others that may come into contact with Pressure Treated Wood. Unfortunately, there was a downside to the change. Most metals with the exception of Hot Dipped Galvanized, Stainless Steel and Copper will be destroyed when they come into contact with ACQ wood. All fasteners had to be changed as well as any other metal products that are used with ACQ treated wood. We believe that it is not a question of whether Aluminum will be undermined by ACQ treated wood, but rather when it will happen.
