Rooftop Pedestal Systems for Commercial & Residential Roof Decks
Professional rooftop pedestal systems designed to protect roof membranes while creating functional, beautiful outdoor spaces. Transform underutilized roof space into valuable living areas.
Why Choose Rooftop Pedestal Systems?
Rooftop pedestal systems are specifically designed for roof deck applications where protecting the roof membrane is critical. Unlike traditional mortared installations that can damage roof membranes and void warranties, pedestal systems create a non-invasive, elevated surface that protects the underlying roof while providing a functional outdoor space.
Key Benefits of Rooftop Pedestals
Roof Membrane Protection
The elevated design protects roof membranes from foot traffic, UV exposure, and thermal stress, extending the life of your roof and maintaining warranty coverage.
Superior Drainage
Proper drainage is critical on rooftops. Pedestal systems ensure water flows freely beneath the surface, preventing ponding and potential roof damage.
Ventilation
The gap created by pedestals allows air circulation beneath the surface, reducing heat buildup and helping to maintain optimal roof temperatures.
Non-Invasive Installation
No mortars, adhesives, or penetrations required. Pedestal systems install without compromising roof membrane integrity or voiding warranties.

Installation Considerations for Rooftop Pedestals
Installing pedestal systems on rooftops requires careful planning and consideration:
Structural Load Requirements
Ensure your roof structure can support the additional weight of pedestals, pavers, and anticipated live loads. Consult with a structural engineer before installation.
Roof Membrane Inspection
Inspect the roof membrane for damage or defects before installation. Ensure proper drainage slopes and address any existing issues.
Building Codes and Permits
Check local building codes and obtain necessary permits before installation. Rooftop modifications may require building permits and inspections.
Drainage Requirements
Ensure roof drainage systems are functioning properly and that pedestal installation does not impede water flow to drains or scuppers.
