Building a deck or patio on your roof can increase the value of your property and provide extra space for socializing, dining, and lounging.
A rooftop deck is commonly called a "floating deck" since it's typically installed on top of a roof. Because it is exposed to harsher weather, a rooftop deck requires different materials and construction methods than a backyard deck. Alpha Structural, Inc. will design and build your LA or OC dream deck for single-family homes, commercial properties, office buildings, and high rise buildings.

Converting a flat rooftop into an outdoor deck space is called a "rooftop-to-deck conversion." This is a popular choice for urban buildings or homes with little outdoor area because it gives you a private outdoor space that you can use to maximize the usage of your structure.
At Alpha Structural, Inc., we can enhance the functionality of your flat rooftop for commercial properties, condos, office buildings, and high rises. We also work with single-family residences.
Decks are beneficial because they provide fire resistance, improve thermal efficiency, and provide a drainage slope, whether installed on a commercial or residential property. Depending on your demands, they can function as both a dining area and a social space. The elevated vantage point of your rooftop deck addition will be perfect for raising property values

What follows is a brief rundown of the fundamentals of transforming a roof into a deck:
First, we must evaluate the roof's stability to ensure it can support a deck and any additional furniture or fixtures. Then, to ensure safety, a structural engineer will assess the roof's load-bearing capacity and make any necessary adjustments. The next stage is to design the deck area, considering the rooftop's dimensions along with any applicable regulations and permits. An architect or builder will develop a comprehensive design outlining the project's specifics, such as the materials to be used, the floor plan, and any additional elements, such as stairway handrails.
After the design has been finalized, the deck construction can be installed. Decking materials like wood planks or composite materials are added to a wooden or metal frame attached to the roof. Once the framework of the deck is established, extra features and fixtures can be added to make the area more practical and pleasurable. Seating, lighting, planters, and even a barbecue may all be integrated into the design.
A rooftop deck, like any other outdoor area, needs to be maintained regularly to ensure its durability and safety. Depending on the extent of damage or wear and tear, this may involve cleaning, sealing, and repairs.
