Frequently Asked Questions: Building in Mecklenburg County

Do I need a building permit for a new deck or porch in Mecklenburg County? 

In Mecklenburg County, a permit is required for any deck, porch, structural addition, project over $15,000, or any work involving electrical, mechanical, or plumbing. Permitting is managed through Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement, and Archadeck handles the entire application and inspection process.

What is the best decking material for the North Carolina climate? 

Both classic wood and low-maintenance composite decking (like TimberTech or AZEK) are popular choices throughout North Carolina. Given Charlotte's humidity and intense summer sun, composites resist warping and rot well, avoiding the need for annual staining.

Will Archadeck handle my HOA approval?

While the homeowner is the primary contact for their Homeowners Association, we provide all the professional drawings, material samples, and site plans you need to make the approval process quick and easy. We are familiar with the strict architectural guidelines of many Mecklenburg communities.

How long does the design & build process take? 

Projects start with a design consultation, followed by a recommendation meeting. After contract signing, lead times are typically 6-8 weeks, varying by the season. Construction usually takes 1-2 weeks for a deck, and 4-6 weeks for a more complex screened-in porch or sunroom.
