Do I need a permit for my deck or patio renovation?
In Kelowna, BC, a building permit is required for constructing or renovating a deck or patio, particularly when:
- Decks: If the deck’s surface is more than 0.6 meters (approximately 2 feet) above grade, a permit is mandatory.
- Patios: While the specific requirements for patios aren’t detailed in the provided sources, it’s advisable to consult the City of Kelowna’s Building and Permitting Department to determine if your patio project requires a permit.
Additionally, any deck or patio construction must adhere to zoning regulations, including setback requirements from property lines. For instance, in certain areas, decks cannot be closer than 25 feet to the property line. 
What’s the best decking material: wood or composite?
What’s the best decking material: wood or composite?
The best material depends on your budget, maintenance preferences, and aesthetic goals:
- Wood (Cedar, Pressure-Treated, or Hardwood): More affordable upfront, natural beauty, but requires regular sealing/staining.
- Composite (Trex, TimberTech, etc.): Higher initial cost but low maintenance, longer lifespan, and resistant to rot, mold, and fading.
If you want a long-term, hassle-free solution, composite is ideal. If you prefer a natural look and are comfortable with maintenance, wood is a great option.
How long does it take to build or renovate a deck or patio?
The timeline for a deck or patio project depends on factors such as size, materials, design complexity, and weather conditions. On average:
- A basic deck renovation can take 1 to 2 weeks.
- A new deck build typically takes 2 to 4 weeks.
- A patio renovation may take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on whether it’s resurfacing or a full redesign.
We can provide a detailed project timeline after an initial consultation.
What are my options for a home addition?
Home additions can range from small to large projects, depending on your needs. Options include adding an entire second floor by modifying your roof, building an attached garage or legal suite, or simply extending a wall to create more space. Every addition is tailored to your specific home and goals.
