How much is an Under-Deck
Ceiling System?
(Free Estimator Tool At The Bottom)

Our under-deck ceiling systems create a completely dry, finished space beneath elevated decks by capturing and diverting water away from the area below. Unlike vinyl or aluminum products, our system is constructed from heavy-gauge, hot-dipped galvanized steel and attaches to a perimeter board rather than directly to the joists, allowing it to free-span the space. This creates a clean, flat ceiling appearance while protecting the structural integrity of the deck. The end result is a fully functional and aesthetically finished ceiling that transforms unusable space into valuable outdoor living area.

Ballpark Pricing:

Typically ranges from $30–$60 per square foot, including all materials, labor, and professional installation.

​

For reference:
A 10’ x 10’ deck (100 sq. ft.) would generally fall between $3,000–$6,000 depending on scope and finishes.

​

Factors that Affect Pricing:

• Size and layout of the deck

• Overall deck height and accessibility

• Complexity of drainage design and water diversion

• Number of penetrations (posts, fireplaces, structural elements)

• Color and finish selection

• Smooth ceiling vs. beadboard finish options

• Integration of lighting, fans, or electrical

• Fascia, post wraps, and trim details

• Structural conditions of the deck framing

• Project location and travel distance

​

Why the Range Exists:

This pricing range accounts for variables that are often undetermined early in the design process, such as:

• Finish and color selections

• Accessories like integrated lighting or fans

• Finishing details including paint, stain, fascia, and post wraps

• Overall deck complexity and layout

• Drainage routing and site conditions

 

Long-Term Value:

This is not a basic “under-deck product.” It is a fully engineered, steel-based waterproof ceiling system designed for real Midwest conditions. It free-spans the space, does not rely on joist attachment, and is engineered to support up to 6 inches of ice across the entire system. Backed by a lifetime warranty, it will never rot, sag, or need replacement like vinyl or aluminum alternatives.

​

The result is a permanent, structurally sound, and visually finished ceiling that elevates both the function and value of the home with one complete system.
