Georgetown Deck Questions
Do I need a permit to build a deck in Georgetown?
Yes, plan on one. The city permit list names decks, patios and patio covers, pergolas included. It lists no exemption for any of them. We put the permit in the plan from day one.
How long does Georgetown take to review deck plans?
The city says to allow fifteen to twenty business days for deck plan review. That is about three to four weeks. Patio covers and pergolas go faster, at about ten business days. Source is the city deck and patio permit page.
Will my raised deck need an engineer?
It might. The city says plans with an engineer's stamp may be required when a deck is more than 6 feet high. We measure your yard first and tell you early if your deck is in that range.
Do you build decks in Sun City Texas?
Yes. Sun City Texas is a 55+ community in Georgetown, and we build there. Most planned neighborhoods also have an HOA review. Ask your HOA what they need, and we will help with drawings for it.
Can you fix my old deck instead of tearing it out?
Often, yes. If the posts, beams and joists are sound, new boards and rails can give you years more. If the frame is soft or loose, a rebuild is the safer buy. We show you what we find.
