View Ottawa Deck BuildersBefore you hire in Kanata
In Ottawa a deck less than 24 inches above grade does not require a building permit, except at a main entrance.
Anything higher, or a landing at the front door, needs one. Exempt from a building permit still means the work must comply with the Ontario Building Code and any applicable law, such as the Zoning By-law.
Designated heritage buildings and properties inside a Heritage District Overlay are not covered by these exemptions, and the City asks owners to confirm with a Building Client Service Centre before starting.

Common questions
Hiring in Kanata
Kanata is Ottawa's west-end tech hub, a mix of established 1990s and 2000s subdivisions in Kanata Lakes, Bridlewood, and Katimavik plus newer builds further west. Because much of the housing stock is now 20 to 30 years old, the most common projects here are first roof replacements, deck rebuilds, window and door upgrades, and basement finishing. The service businesses below serve Kanata and the wider west end.
Ottawa frost heave lifts any deck built on shallow footings. Ask how deep the footings go; they should reach below 1.5 metres, and the builder should confirm the depth in writing.
Pressure-treated wood costs less up front but needs staining every few years. Composite costs more but skips the maintenance and holds colour. Ask for both quotes so you compare lifetime cost, not just the sticker price.
