Roof Decks
I would assume $60-$100 per s.f. for a roof deck installation, depandant on planting, add’t structural requirement and finishes. Hope that helps Kyle Page Sundial Studios Architecture & Design, PLLC

I’m interested in having a roof deck installed on the roof of my 108 unit co-op in Brooklyn. I’m looking for feedback/guidance from others who have gone through the process in order to inform discussions with other shareholders and Board members. * The building has, I believe, a wood roof so additional support would need to be installed for the decking to rest on. Does anyone have a rough estimate of the price per square foot for a project like this? * Would the corporation need new/additional liability insurance? What should we estimate these costs to be? * Did you measure the value of apartments in the building before/after the addition on the roof deck? Is there even a way to quantify this? I imagine if I could show that the value rises to offset the additional expenses from the construction/maintence/insurance, I might have a better chance convincing people this is a good idea! Any other thoughts or considerations? Recommendations for professionals I could speak with? Thanks in advance for sharing your expertise!
