A permit is required for a new deck or replacement of an existing deck. Submit a building permit application with a site plan showing existing as well as the proposed structures. This is used to determine if the setbacks are met. Please also provide the deck structure, decking, and railing details for review.

Please visit the Roswell Permitting & Licensing page to learn more about submitting an application for a permit.
