Decks · Chevy Chase
Why Chevy Chase homeowners hire us.
A Chevy Chase deck takes its height and span from the yard behind the house we measure.
For a deck on a Montgomery County parcel, start with the county permitting office in Wheaton. Deed restrictions and covenants are outside county enforcement. The Village of North Chevy Chase is listed for both county and city approval. Friendship Heights is listed for a county permit only. An electrician handles any wiring on this deck. We check this deck on the house before lumber is ordered.
The Chevy Chase deck price is a free written estimate after a site walk.
For this area, see Permits in Montgomery County: what to expect.

Questions about decks in Chevy Chase
Does a Chevy Chase deck need a permit at any height?+
Every deck needs a building permit, at any height above grade. A lot on its own well and septic has extra requirements for that deck. Ask for the inspection at least 24 hours before the inspection date.
Can the county deck details include a screened porch?+
A single-span, single-level deck may rely on the published county deck details instead of a custom plan set. A deck built from those details cannot add a roof, a screened porch, a hot tub, or another extra load.
