Its that season everyone looks forward to. Spring. With winter on the way out the door for eight months its time to start thinking of your outdoor living plans.

If you are a do-it yourselfer make sure to check with local building codes before tackling any project generally above 2 feet from grade(most areas allow to build without permit if below 2 feet from grade). If you are looking for a contractor to build your deck, look two months ahead of time so proper design and reports can be generated for permits and inspections. Also gives you the homeowner a chance to go over what you want and makes changes before work is completed. If you are looking for the sleek glass and steel railing system, in some areas they need an engineers report and connection details before they are installed.
