Roof Deck Conversions

We transform flat roofs into functional outdoor living spaces designed for San Francisco's climate. A roof deck conversion adds usable square footage to your property while creating a setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying views of the city and bay.

Premium Materials

We offer material options ranging from domestic products to artisanal Italian tile pavers. Material selection affects both the appearance and longevity of your roof deck, and we help you choose options that complement your home's architecture while meeting San Francisco building code requirements.

Roof Deck Coating

Sure Roofing offers specialty deck coatings formulated specifically for walkway decks and roof decks. These coatings protect the deck surface while providing durability and slip resistance under regular foot traffic.

Planning Your Project

Roof deck projects in San Francisco involve multiple considerations beyond the deck surface itself. The underlying roof must remain watertight, structural capacity must support the added load, and the project must comply with local building codes and planning requirements.

Building Code Considerations

San Francisco requires building permits for roof decks and rooftop structures. Planning Department guidelines address deck size, setbacks from building edges, and access requirements. Decks must be installed over Class A or B fire-resistive roof assemblies, and materials must meet fire-retardant specifications.

Protecting Your Roof

A roof deck installation must maintain the integrity of the waterproofing system below. Sure Roofing's experience with flat roof systems ensures your deck conversion protects rather than compromises your home's weather barrier.
