Rooftop Decks, Brooklyn, NY
Turn an overlooked roof into a private retreat, entertainment space, or income-boosting amenity.
Rooftop Deck
Brooklyn's skyline, brownstones, and rowhouses give homeowners one huge advantage: the roof. A professionally designed rooftop deck can turn that overlooked space into a private retreat, entertainment magnet, or income-boosting amenity.
Roof On helps homeowners and property managers maximize every inch of their roof with beautifully designed, structurally sound, and fully waterproof rooftop decks, bringing craftsmanship, compliance, and creativity together.
Schedule InspectionWhat We Handle
As a full-service custom rooftop deck builder, we handle everything from design and permits to waterproofing and finishing.
Layout zones for lounge, dining, and cooking; material selection for decking, pavers, railings, and lighting. No cookie-cutter plans.
The Department of Buildings requires permit filings, often by a registered architect or engineer. We start with a full site assessment and permit plan.
EPDM rubber membranes, liquid-applied polyurethane coatings, and bituminous systems form the watertight layer beneath every deck.
Staircases, hatches, guardrails at code height, wind screens, and fire-escape path planning built into every design.
Our Work
Why Roof On
Rooftop terraces face more extreme wind, sun, and drainage demands than ground patios.
Fasteners and metals chosen to withstand coastal humidity and sun exposure.
Regular checks of flashing, membranes, and drainage protect your investment.
Every deck designed around your building's load limits and access points.
We provide a maintenance plan to keep everything functioning optimally.
