Knob Hill, Calgary SW

Decks for Knob Hill's Hillside Lots

Knob Hill is usually grouped with Richmond as Richmond/Knob Hill, and it sits close to Bankview, South Calgary and Marda Loop. The streets climb the hill, so many yards slope and many homes have a view worth building toward.

Like much of the inner city, the area is a mix of original houses and newer infills. A deck here might be a raised platform on a sloping back yard, a compact deck behind a narrow infill, or an upper deck placed to catch the skyline.

Local Conditions

What Decks in Knob Hill Need

Building on a slope

On a sloped lot, part of the deck is often well above grade. We design the structure and stairs for the grade and handle the permit that comes with it.

Making the most of the view

Glass railing and the right deck height keep the view open from where you actually sit.

Close neighbours

Inner-city lots are tight. We check side setbacks with the City and can add a privacy screen where you want one.

Permits

Deck Permits in Knob Hill

Knob Hill is inside Calgary city limits, so deck permits go through the City of Calgary. These are the rules that most often apply. We confirm them for your lot and prepare the application for you.

  • •A building permit is needed for any covered deck, and for an uncovered deck more than 0.6 m (2 ft) above grade at any point.
  • •A development permit may also be needed if the deck is at the front of the home, closer than 1.2 m to a side property line, or closer than 6 m to the rear property line.

Wes and his team put in long days to complete my deck in a timely manner and inclement weather. The deck looks great, love the product they used and especially the access door for storage. Friendly, professional and skilled.

Amazingly fast, on time and definitely hard working. Able to more than meet my unique needs with limited access in an older property and with site issues. Costs were super affordable. Highly recommend. A++++
