Under-Deck Ceiling Systems in Buckhead & West Atlanta

Engineered metal panels fasten to the underside of the deck at a slight slope. Rain that falls between the deck boards lands on the panels, runs to an integrated gutter and leaves through a downspout. The area below stays dry and gets a finished ceiling in the process.

For many homes it is. You get a dry place to sit through summer thunderstorms and shade on hot Georgia afternoons. For the money, it is likely the least expensive way to gain covered, usable outdoor space on a house you already own.

That is when it earns its keep. Atlanta gets about 50 inches of rain a year, with the heaviest totals in winter and summer, and without a ceiling every storm pours through the deck boards onto whatever sits below. A ceiling and a clear downspout keep that space usable instead of soaked.

Plenty. Finishes come in a wide range of colors and several textures, so the ceiling can pick up your trim color instead of looking like an afterthought. Your Solutionist brings options to the free estimate.

Every system is custom-designed to your deck’s dimensions and drainage needs. The crew takes measurements first, then lays out the panels so each section slopes toward the built-in gutter.

Have the panels checked for clogs or leaks, since either one weakens the waterproofing. Keeping the system clear also keeps moisture off the deck framing, protecting it from water damage and mold. That check is easy to add to a regular gutter cleaning.

Yes. With the ceiling carrying water to the gutter, the space below stays dry enough for patio furniture, outdoor storage or a covered place to entertain. Where the downspout empties matters too, so we plan that with you, especially on hilly lots with red clay.
