The Do’s and Don’ts of Rooftop Deck Construction

Posted by Brett McCutcheon on Jul 22, 2023 7:00:00 AM

Rooftop decks are becoming increasingly popular all over the United States, especially in areas where space is at a premium, like Washington D.C. or Boston. In fact, space is what makes rooftop decks so popular.

Since this is a job that you’ll be hearing about more and more, we’re going to show you a few helpful dos and don’ts for rooftop deck construction. We’d also like to highlight the SCRAIL® InvisiDeck® System, which gives you the power to install a seamless deck without visible fasteners and in a fifth of the time compared to traditional screws.
