Understanding Northumberland's Rules for Your Deck Remodel
Starting a deck remodeling project in Northumberland, PA, means you need to know the Borough's specific building and zoning rules. These rules, found in the Northumberland Borough Zoning Ordinance and details on Building Permits, are there to guide proper building, keep everyone safe, and protect Northumberland's unique character. For deck jobs, especially if you're building a new structure or making big changes to your property's footprint, a building permit is often a necessary first step.
Northumberland has different zoning areas, including residential districts, each with rules about setbacks (how far from property lines), building height, and how much of the lot can be covered. If your home is in the Northumberland Historic District, any outside changes like a new deck might need approval from the Historic Architectural Review Board (HARB) to make sure they fit the historic look. Union County Contracting knows Northumberland's building and zoning laws very well and can guide you through the process. We help make sure your project follows the rules from the start, figure out what permits you need, and help with the paperwork to make sure your renovation goes smoothly and gets approved.
