Do You Need a Permit to Build a Deck in Ogden? We’ve Got You Covered!

Planning to build a deck? One of the biggest concerns for homeowners is whether a permit is required. The answer? Most of the time, yes! But don’t worry—when you work with Ogden Decks, we handle the entire permitting process for you, so you can focus on enjoying your new outdoor space stress-free.

Why Do You Need a Permit for a Deck in Ogden?
​The City of Ogden has building codes and safety regulations in place to ensure that decks are structurally sound and safe. A permit is generally required if:

•  Your deck is attached to your home
• Your deck is more than 30 inches above the ground
•  Your deck is larger than 200 square feet
•  Your deck has a roof, awning, or pergola
•  You’re adding stairs, railings, or structural supports

Skipping the permit process can lead to fines, delays, or even requiring you to tear down your deck. That’s why it’s always best to go through the proper channels.
