Do I need a permit for a deck or fence in Mercer Island?
In Mercer Island, decks over 30 inches above grade require a building permit. Fences typically need permits if they exceed 6 feet in height or are in setback areas. We handle all permit applications and ensure compliance with local codes and HOA requirements.
What decking material is best for Mercer Island’s climate?
Composite decking performs best in Mercer Island’s wet Pacific Northwest climate due to its resistance to moisture, mold, and rot. Western red cedar is an excellent natural alternative — it’s naturally rot-resistant but requires periodic sealing. We help you choose the best option for your budget and lifestyle.
