Plan your project
Ardmore · Covered Decks

Stay a little longer. Whatever the forecast.

A covered deck adds shelter to an outdoor gathering space. Roof shape, ceiling height, daylight, and the connection to the house all influence how the space feels.

Planning your Ardmore project

Ardmore includes properties in Lower Merion and Haverford townships. Confirm which township contains the property before starting the design and application process.

We review the proposed roof connection, support locations, drainage, and clearances before construction. A pitched roof or pavilion-style structure should be planned with the deck, rather than added as an afterthought.

Bring these questions to your consultation

  • How will the roof connect to the house?
  • Will the cover affect light inside?
  • Where should roof runoff go?

Photos of your existing space, approximate dimensions, and any available survey are useful for the first conversation. The team will review access, existing conditions, and your goals before establishing a detailed scope.

Covered Decks: the local starting point

Discuss the floor, posts, roof, and drainage together; an Ardmore postal address does not establish which township reviews that assembly. Review the roof-to-house connection, daylight, posts, and runoff with the deck support design.

What to bring to the consultation

Start with the property municipality and a plan showing boundaries, the existing house, and the outdoor work being considered.

Official local planning resources

The two townships publish different application resources. Lower Merion provides expansion guidance; Haverford Township provides residential submission and site-plan information through Building & Codes.

Local resources reviewed October 16, 2026. Confirm current requirements for your parcel and final design with the municipality.

Your project, clearly planned.

Can a roof be added to an existing deck?

Sometimes, but the existing structure and its supports must be evaluated for the proposed roof and connections. A site-specific review is needed before deciding whether to reinforce, rebuild, or design a separate structure.

What affects the cost of covered decks in Ardmore?

The site conditions, size, height, materials, access, and details of the design determine the scope. A consultation and site review are needed before RC Deck Co can provide project-specific pricing.

How do I start a covered decks project in Ardmore?

Call (610) 246-0546 or prepare an estimate request with your address, goals, and photos. The first conversation covers the site and your priorities; the design and written scope follow from that review.

What local approvals should I plan for?

The two townships publish different application resources. Lower Merion provides expansion guidance; Haverford Township provides residential submission and site-plan information through Building & Codes. Requirements must be confirmed for the actual parcel and final design.
