Are permits required for decks?

Yes: A building permit is required for decks, except for ordinary repairs, not of a structural nature. Click here for a building permit application. The permit fee will is based on the cost of construction and can be found here: engineering_fee_schedule_rev_11.1.2024.pdf. The NYS Property Maintenance Code requires that decks “shall be maintained in good repair, and structurally sound.” Deck Permits | Croton-on-Hudson NY
