The Project

  • Expand the existing elevated deck
  • Install support posts and framing for a covered porch
  • Build a gable roof with shingle roofing, exterior trim and siding
  • Install cable railing and finish the porch ceiling with wood

Starting Point

The Leland home had an uncovered upper deck with white vertical railings. The project expanded that outdoor area and added a roof over the elevated seating space.

Our Work

We expanded the elevated deck and installed support posts and framing for a new gable-roof porch. The construction photos show the open roof framing and the roofing work before the finished exterior views. Shingle roofing, exterior trim and matching siding complete the new roof structure.

Cable railing replaces the previous vertical railing around the covered seating area. Inside the porch, the photographs show a finished wood ceiling above a furnished outdoor seating area. The completed front and side views show how the new porch connects to the existing house.

Project Details

The completed project provides an expanded, covered outdoor seating area with cable railing and a finished wood ceiling. The gallery includes both construction-stage photographs and views of the finished porch.

Andrew found that the problem stemmed from a nail hole.

Never had a roof leak before but one day during a huge rain storm we started seeing water drip from a kitchen light. Didn't know who to call so googled roofing and the 1st one we contacted gave us a date for 10 days later just to inspect the problem. RGR was contacted next, Andrew got back with us promptly and came out to inspect the next day! We were worried about the roof needed thousands of dollars in repairs but Andrew found that the problem stemmed from a nail hole. He sealed it along with all the vents for lil to nothing then gave us better roofing options to think about(new roof was put on before we bought the house but too many vent holes were left) Thanks Andrew!👍🏽

I was very impressed with the timeliness response to my leaking roof. They even came out on a Saturday evening to do a temporary repair.
