Why Winchester homeowners hire us.
Real Elite Contracting builds decks and outdoor living for Winchester homeowners — composite builds, railing and lighting, and the next step when you want a roof or screen. A Winchester mailing address is not automatically City limits: parcels along Route 7, Senseny Road, and the county line often sit in Frederick County, Virginia. We check the parcel before we file. We install Trex, TimberTech, and AZEK when the job calls for them; we do not advertise a manufacturer Pro or Platinum badge we do not hold.
Inside the City, building permits run through City of Winchester Zoning and Inspections on the City permit portal. The 2021 Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code is what the City reviews against. Outside City limits, Frederick County, Virginia issues the building permit. The City points applicants to the municipal fee schedule, and we put the current amount in the written estimate.
What you file with the application is the paperwork product: a site plan with setbacks, framing and footing details, and ledger, railing, and stair notes. If the parcel is in Old Town, we check whether historic-district design review applies before we lock materials. HOA review, when the lot has one, is a separate track from the City or county building permit.
We install to the approved plans and the Virginia Residential Code, and document each inspection.
