Covered decks · East Cobb (Marietta), GA
A covered deck in East Cobb
Want more shade and rain shelter for your East Cobb deck?
Under a raised deck, a roof can also make a dry patio below. Many East Cobb homes have that space already, and we can look at whether a covered area up top, below or both makes sense.
Around Indian Hills and Chimney Springs, summer afternoons and sudden storms are the two reasons covered decks keep coming up in our estimate calls.
East Cobb is a large, established part of Marietta and Cobb County known for tree-lined subdivisions such as Indian Hills, Chimney Springs and Sibley Forest. Many homes are decades old, so plenty of decks are on their second or third set of boards.
Our first look on an Indian Hills or Chimney Springs job is the house wall behind the deck, because the roof joins the home at that spot.

Under a roof
A deck with more shade and shelter
A roof adds weight and wind load, so the footings, posts and beams have to be sized for it. These real B&T photos show covered decks and porches in our service area.
The pictures are from real B&T work in North Georgia, which may or may not include East Cobb.
Price & estimate
What a covered deck costs in East Cobb

Signs to look for
Is a covered deck right for you?
A roof changes how a deck works. If any of these sound like your back yard, a covered deck may be a good fit.

- Afternoon sun makes the back of the house unusable
- You like the idea of a screened porch but want something more open
- You want to add a ceiling fan or lights outside
Cobb County · terrain & local rules
Local conditions in East Cobb
East Cobb is a wooded suburban area with rolling hills and many tree-lined lots. That means shade, falling leaves and slopes, all of which shape how a deck is framed and how fast wood weathers.
Cobb County permitting, setback and inspection rules may apply, so confirm with the county, and wooded lots or creeks can add constraints. We check what applies to your parcel before the estimate is written.
Many East Cobb homes are long-established and well maintained, so a new deck is built to suit the house, with premium composite or wood and railing that looks original to the home.
Areas you may know in East Cobb include Indian Hills, Chimney Springs and Sibley Forest. Main routes through the area include Roswell Road, Johnson Ferry Road, Shallowford Road, Powers Ferry Road and Windy Hill Road.
Materials & options
Roof styles and ceilings
A shed roof is the simplest and fits many back walls. A gable roof gives a taller ceiling and a more finished look but costs more to frame. We show both against your house before you decide.

Straight answers · East Cobb (Marietta), GA
Can your East Cobb deck get a roof for year-round use?
Short answer: A cover can turn a deck into a room you use in more weather. We look at the framing, footings and how a roof ties into your East Cobb house, then write a free estimate. Text a photo to +1 470 863 3707, and you will hear back the same day.
How much does a covered deck cost in East Cobb?
A covered deck costs more than an open one because of the roof, but less than a full room addition. The written estimate shows the roof's share.
I am searching for covered deck builders near me in East Cobb. Do you come to my area?
A roof over a deck begins with the framing and the house wall, so we look at both before we quote. East Cobb, Kennesaw, Acworth and Sandy Springs and the areas between them are all in our range. Text or call with your address, and Breno confirms the same day whether it is within reach.
Who handles permits for covered decks in East Cobb?
A roof adds weight and changes the footprint, so it is one of the first things we raise with the permitting office. East Cobb is generally handled through Cobb County permitting, although some addresses fall inside city limits, so the right office depends on your exact address. We confirm it with you before work is scheduled. Nothing starts until that question has a clear answer.
Should I choose a shed roof or a gable roof for a covered deck in East Cobb?
Either can be right. Roofline matters, so we look at the back wall of the house and tell you honestly which suits it. Both are solid choices when built and sealed properly, and we can price them side by side for you.
How long does it take to build a covered deck in East Cobb?
A covered deck has more steps than an open one, including the roof, flashing and ceiling. The estimate lists them and the expected schedule.
Does B&T stand behind its covered deck work?
A spoken promise is easy to forget, so we put our answer on paper instead. Ask about it when you request your estimate, and ask for our workmanship terms too.
Does my East Cobb HOA need to approve a covered deck?
A roof over a deck changes the roofline, and some communities want approval before anything like that goes up. Many East Cobb subdivisions are HOA or swim-and-tennis communities. If yours has rules about exterior changes, tell us early so approvals fit your timeline. A short note to the board or management company usually settles it before we order materials.
Can I put a ceiling fan on a covered deck?
Yes, a fan can go up there. The framing gets built to hold it, and an electrician runs the wiring ahead of the ceiling closing in.
Can you add a roof to my existing deck?
Yes, in a lot of cases, with a condition: the deck must be strong enough for the extra load. We check that by looking at each support. Weak spots are fixed first, and the roof comes afterward.
How does the terrain in East Cobb affect a covered deck?
Slope and sun set the direction of the roof, and drainage decides where the water goes. East Cobb is a wooded suburban area with rolling hills and many tree-lined lots. The ground is the first thing we look at and the last thing people think about.
Can you add a roof or cover to my deck in East Cobb?
Yes. We plan covered decks for East Cobb homes around the existing frame, so posts and footings are checked before a roof goes on. Our work carries a one-year workmanship warranty, and the estimate is free and in writing. Text or call (470) 863-3707.
Which neighborhoods in East Cobb do you serve for covered decks?
We take covered deck jobs across East Cobb, including Indian Hills, Chimney Springs and Sibley Forest, and nearby parts of Cobb County. If your street is not listed, text us the address and we will confirm.
