Ontario forces deck builders to acquire a permit. Newmarket is no exception to this rule.
In fact, here’s when a permit is needed:
- If your deck’s elevation is larger than 24 inches
- If your deck is attached to a house
Our company provides certified designers within staff to construct your deck. We’ll then prepare a permit drawings for the job, submitting them to Ontario’s government on your behalf.
But that’s not all. Our services manage every detail of your deck building project. Permits are just the start.
Beyond permits, inspections are another issue we take care of. We will do what is necessary to complete your permit application.
What if I Was Told I Don’t Need One?
If your deck requires a permit, and your contractor says otherwise, then we recommend staying away from them.
It’s always best to follow legal procedures. Cutting corners leads to disaster, especially with city inspectors.
Plus, when it’s time to sell your home, and your deck lacks a registered Newmarket permit, you’ll end up facing issues.
Add to that extra engineering requirements. Some components (like glass/aluminum railings and pile footings) need specialist permits.
We’ll ensure that you receive the proper approvals for all your decking components, eliminating any worries about a fault permit!
