You remember that classic concept of life on “Grandpa’s porch”? The homestead usually had a wraparound porch covered with a nice roof to keep the rain off and provide shade for those warm summer afternoons of lemonade and lilac smells. At DeckTec we believe in the wonderful experience of living outdoors too. Here are the first five in our two part series covering other ways a roof addition can enhance your outdoor living experience.
- Create an Outdoor Room – Bring the indoors out. A roof creates the boundaries of your outdoor living space just like the walls and ceilings do inside your home. A large deck is just a big area without the definition of space a roof cover provides.
- Year-Round Protection – A roof cover will protect your deck from spring and summer showers and from having to shovel off winter snow. As UV rays are a real Colorado issue, you never want to spend too much time in direct sunlight. What a pleasant, healthy way to stay out of the sun, yet be outdoors too.
- Protect Your Deck and Furnishings – The new deep comfortable cushions on outdoor furniture don’t tolerate being wet all the time, nor are they immune to those same ultra-violet rays that can damage your skin. A roof cover means no more rushing to drag stuff inside when bad weather threatens, or having to clean your furniture after an afternoon shower or morning dew. Of course you also will be protecting your deck and reducing your maintenance.
- Extend Your Season Outdoors – It’s hard to imagine dragging yourself out to an outdoor grill covered with snow, or when bad weather approaches, but with a solid roof over your head, even Thanksgiving turkeys may have that fresh-off-the-grill flavor. With the addition of an outdoor heater or fire pit, cool evenings won’t interrupt your outdoor living enjoyment.
- Bring the Entertainment Outside With You – Visions of sparks and nasty electronic malfunctions keeping you from bringing speakers, televisions and other electronics outside? A roofed area will make your worries vanish as your fun begins. Extend your enjoyment into the night with integrated lighting.

My husband Matt and I [...] have moved away from the home where we had the beautiful deck and outdoor living space you created. We will forever remember fondly that beautiful deck, and the hard work you did during a very bad economic time to fix problems around the foundation of our home. Steve, Keith, and all of your workers were fabulous and we sent several of our friends your way with referrals. We are sure that your deck helped us get a wonderful offer on our home.
We just wanted to tell you how much we enjoy the decks DeckTec constructed at our home. Their use is a constant joy. We continually receive compliments on the design and quality of your work. We look forward to many years of use.
DeckTec are absolute pros. They just finished a big deck and roof cover project at my house. The total experience from working with Steve in Design and Sales, Keith in Project Management, and Charlie, Josh, and Hank in Construction was nothing but 6 star service. 100% on time and on budget with craftsmanship and quality. Skip the “Hammer and Nails” contractors and go with DeckTec if you want an “Outdoor Living Space”. Call these people – you will not be disappointed.
I just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the work Decktec completed refinishing my deck. It hasn’t looked this good since it was new sixteen years ago. Decktec was very professional, polite and willing to work with me to get the exact color of stain I wanted. I would recommend Decktec to anyone who wants a complete job from the great construction work starting the job, to its thorough cleanup. I’m happy my neighbor referred me to Decktec. You are the fourth company I’ve had refinish my deck and will now be the only company I use going forward.
