Q: Can my deck support a roof?

• <div><p>You can add a roof to most decks, but you need to have it inspected first. If your deck didn&rsquo;t come with a roof initially, it may not be able to handle the weight without some structural changes. You can add additional supports to your existing deck to safely add a roof, and tying your deck&rsquo;s roof to an exterior wall can help add some structural stability, but remember these aren&rsquo;t DIY projects and need to be left to a pro. </p></div>
