permits & code

Building a deck in Burnaby: what's required

Burnaby treats a deck as an addition wherever it changes the building's footprint or adds floor area, which means a building permit. Applications are online only, through the City's My Permits Portal. One change worth knowing before you plan: as of 1 July 2026 some projects need a Development Permit issued before a Building Permit can even be submitted, so the order of operations matters more here than it used to. We check which track your project falls on before anything is drawn.

Built for Burnaby's Climate

Decking designed for year-round performance

Burnaby is a city of hillsides — Capitol Hill, the Heights, the climb toward SFU — and a sloping lot changes a deck from a surface into a structure. Most of what we build here is multi-level or elevated on posts, which brings guard height, footing depth and stair runs into the design from the first sketch. The upside is the view; the work is in the framing you never see.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a permit to build a deck in Burnaby?

In most cases yes. Burnaby treats a deck as an addition wherever it changes the building's footprint or adds floor area, and that needs a building permit. Applications go through the City's My Permits Portal online.

Has anything changed about Burnaby permits recently?

Yes — as of 1 July 2026 some projects require a Development Permit to be issued before a Building Permit can be submitted. It affects sequencing rather than whether you can build, but it is worth establishing early. We check which track a project falls on before drawing anything.

How high can a deck be before it needs a railing?

Under the BC Building Code a guard is required once the deck surface is more than 600 mm (24″) above grade. Up to 1.8 m the guard must be at least 900 mm tall; above 1.8 m it must be 1,070 mm.

What should I expect on a sloped Burnaby lot?

More structure than surface. On the hillsides — Capitol Hill, the Heights, the climb toward SFU — decks are usually multi-level or elevated on posts, so guard height, footing depth and stair runs get designed in from the first sketch rather than added later.

Do you build decks in Capitol Hill and Brentwood?

Yes — we work across Burnaby, including Capitol Hill, Burnaby Heights, Brentwood, Metrotown, Edmonds and Deer Lake.
