FAQs about Outdoor Living on Lake Norman | Decks, Patios, & Porches

Does Archadeck handle permits and HOA approvals?

Archadeck handles the permit process, managing applying for and obtaining building and zoning permits, scheduling inspections and vendors, and following up with your building department. We will provide you with any materials needed to submit to your HOA, but we will ask you to submit for approval, as HOAs typically want to work directly with their residents.

How long does deck and porch construction take?

The time it will take to build your project depends on the project's size, materials, permitting, crew availability, features, and more. From the day we start construction, deck builds typically take anywhere from 2-5 weeks. Porches are more complex and sometimes require custom window fitting for Eze-Breeze Windows, which can take 4 to 10 weeks.

Can I add shade structures to an existing deck or patio?

Yes! We design and build custom shade structures, creating both partial and 100% shade for your deck or patio. Our projects can be engineered to seamlessly blend with your existing space, creating a more functional, usable outdoor living space.

Can I build a fire-pit?

Yes. Fire pits are typically allowed around Lake Norman. We'll check with your local zoning and building department to ensure we're designing to the required setback and open-flame distance compliance rules.

I have an open porch. Can I screen it in?

Yes. We can screen in your existing porch to create a more functional and comfortable outdoor living space. We call this service a porch conversion or retrofit. We will custom-order screens or windows to enclose your existing space and make it free from bugs, pollen, and harsh winds.

Does Archadeck build docks?

No. Unfortunately, we are not set up to build into or under water.
