Covered Deck Contractor FAQs

What is a gable cover?

A gable cover is a pitched roof built over a deck, with two roof planes meeting at a ridge. The shape creates more overhead space than a low-slope cover and helps move rain and snow off the roof.
The pitched roof handles snow and drainage well while keeping the covered area open underneath. The framing, roof pitch, and supports still need to be designed for the specific span, site, and local load requirements.

What changes when you add a cover to a deck?

A cover gives you shade and shelter without enclosing the deck. It can make dining, seating, and grilling areas more practical during strong sun, light rain, and changing spring or fall weather.
Yes. The roof connection, pitch, height, drainage, siding, trim, and existing deck layout all affect how the cover is designed. Those details are resolved before construction, so the new roof works with the house and the structure below it.
