Frequently Asked Questions

How deep must supports go?▾

Below the local frost line, or on screw piles sized accordingly. It is the single most important point for a deck that does not move.

Can roof snow damage my deck?▾

Yes, snow and ice sliding off a roof slope deliver a brutal load. Snow guards or a different location prevent the damage.

What rules apply to a pool enclosure?▾

The enclosure must keep a young child from reaching the water alone, with compliant height, spacing and latch. Check with the city.

Do I need a permit?▾

Generally yes for a deck above a certain size and for a fence. Also check setbacks from property lines.

What maintenance does a wood deck need?▾

Annual cleaning and sealer or stain renewed per the product. Without upkeep, wood greys and splits faster.

Fencing & Decks in Québec: what to know

In the Quebec City region, frost depth and snow loads impose stricter requirements on these outdoor structures than elsewhere.

The frost line

Deck supports must reach below the frost line, or sit on screw piles of adequate depth. A deck on concrete blocks laid on the ground will shift from one winter to the next, and repairs cost more than doing it right the first time.

Snow

Plan where roof snow will land. A deck under a roof slope without snow guards takes heavy loads, and guardrails pay the price.

Pool enclosures

A compliant enclosure is required to keep a young child from reaching the water alone. Height, spacing and latch type are regulated.

Licence

For structural work, ask for the RBQ licence, liability insurance and a CNESST clearance.
