Common Questions About Decks & Porches
Do I need a permit to build a deck in Cherokee County?
Yes. Decks in Cherokee County require a building permit regardless of size. Cobb and Fulton counties have the same requirement. We handle the permit application, engineering calculations where required, and all inspections from footer pour through final framing. Building to permit is also required by most homeowners insurance policies.
How long does a custom deck last?
Composite decking with proper frame construction typically lasts 25 to 30 years with minimal maintenance. Pressure-treated wood decks last 15 to 20 years with periodic sealing. We recommend composite decking for most North Atlanta projects due to the humid Georgia climate, which accelerates wood deterioration.
What is included in a screened porch addition?
A screened porch addition typically includes foundation footings, floor framing, structural posts and beams, a roof structure tied to the existing roofline, screen systems, an entry door, and electrical for lighting and ceiling fans. We can add tongue-and-groove ceiling, composite decking, and full trim details for a finished appearance.
