We had to pick between a standard and a custom roof deck system for a hotel in Boise

The choice was a basic, pre-made deck or a custom one from a company called SkyDeck Systems that cost about 15% more. We went with the custom option because it fit the weird shape of the building better and saved us two full days of on-site fitting. It worked out great, the install was smooth and the hotel owner was happy. Has anyone else used a custom deck system on a tight site and how did it go for you?

That "saved us two full days" part is key. I read a case study where a custom deck on a tight city lot cut the crane rental window in half, which made the whole project schedule work. The upfront cost was worth it for the time saved.

But that extra cost could have covered other project needs.
