LOCAL PRESENCE
Decks Designed for Holly Springs Homes
Holly Springs has a little bit of everything when it comes to residential properties. Some homeowners are working with established decks that are ready for replacement. Others live in newer planned communities where the deck needs to complement the architecture of the home, fit within HOA guidelines, and make the most of a carefully designed backyard.
That means the right deck is not simply about picking a board color and square footage.
We look at how your home connects to the yard, where stairs make the most sense, how much entertaining space you need, sun exposure, elevation changes, railing options, privacy, traffic flow, and the way your family actually plans to use the space.
The result is a deck designed specifically for your property—not a standard layout repeated from house to house.

Services
Deck Building Services in Holly Springs, NC
01
Custom Deck Design & Construction
No two Holly Springs backyards are identical, so we do not believe their decks should be either. We design the size, shape, stairs, railings, materials, and overall layout around your home and how you want to use the space.
02
Composite Decks
Enjoy your backyard without turning deck maintenance into another yearly project. We install premium composite decking from Trex, TimberTech, and MoistureShield, providing Holly Springs homeowners with durable, low-maintenance options in a wide range of colors, textures, and price points.
03
Custom Wood Decks
For homeowners who love the natural look and feel of real wood, pressure-treated lumber remains a classic choice. Our wood decks are designed around the property, properly framed, and built for homeowners who want traditional character at a more accessible material cost.
04
Deck Replacement
An older deck may no longer fit the home—or may simply be reaching the end of its useful life. We can remove the existing structure and redesign the space with updated framing, stairs, railing, decking, and a layout that better fits how you use your backyard today.
05
Deck Resurfacing
Not every deck needs to be completely rebuilt. When the existing framing is structurally suitable for reuse, resurfacing can allow you to replace worn decking, railings, stairs, and finishes while retaining portions of the existing structure. Our team evaluates the framing before recommending whether resurfacing or replacement makes more sense.
06
Pool & High-Moisture Decks
Pools, shade, humidity, and heavy outdoor use can change which decking material makes the most sense. We offer composite and PVC options designed for homeowners who prioritize moisture resistance, durability, barefoot comfort, and lower long-term maintenance.
07
Renaissance Structures Aluminum Covered Porches
Want the openness of a deck with dependable shade and weather protection? We offer Renaissance Structures aluminum covered porches for homeowners who want to create a more usable outdoor living area without a traditional wood-framed porch roof. These aluminum porch-cover systems can be designed to complement the deck and home while creating a clean, durable, low-maintenance covered space for relaxing, dining, and entertaining.
08
Deck Railings & Stairs
The details can completely change the finished project. From black aluminum balusters and composite railing to wider staircases, picture framing, fascia, and finished trim work, we help design the entire deck—not just the walking surface.

Holly Springs has made outdoor recreation a major part of the community, from Bass Lake Park and its trails to the town’s expanding greenway network. Your backyard should give you another place to enjoy that same outdoor lifestyle—without leaving home.

OUR HOLLY SPRINGS PERMITTING PROCESS
PERMITTING
Holly Springs Deck Permitting, Without the Guesswork
Permitting is one of the places where using a contractor familiar with Holly Springs can save homeowners considerable frustration.
The Town of Holly Springs requires permits for deck construction and directs applicants through its CityView development portal. Deck applications typically require building plans and a plot plan, and the plot plan needs to identify property lines, existing structures, the proposed project, and applicable setbacks.
But submitting the application is only part of the process.
OUR HOLLY SPRINGS PERMITTING PROCESS
But submitting the application is only part of the process.
- Property and jurisdiction review
- Setback and easement review
- Building-plan preparation
- Responses to plan-review comments
- Final permit closeout
- Plot-plan preparation and coordination
- CityView permit submission
- Septic documentation when applicable
- Inspection coordination
Instead of handing homeowners a set of drawings and telling them to figure out the rest, we manage the permitting process as part of the project.
BEFORE THE PERMIT
We Look at the Property Before We Look at the Permit
Plot Plans, Setbacks & Easements
The proposed deck needs to fit legally on the property. We review the deck location relative to property lines, required setbacks, easements, the house, and other improvements before the project moves too far into design.
Existing Sheds & Accessory Structures
Existing improvements can matter when permitting another project. Holly Springs requires permits for sheds, patios, and other accessory structures, with the application type depending on the size and whether the structure is attached to the home. That is one reason we want to understand everything already sitting on the property, not just the area where the new deck will go.
Impervious-Surface Limits
Some Holly Springs properties have lot-specific impervious limits established by the development’s stormwater management plan. Those limits may appear on the recorded plat and can matter when a property already has a home, driveway, patio, shed, or other improvements competing for allowable built-upon area.
Septic & On-Site Wastewater
Properties served by septic can require another layer of review and documentation. Holly Springs provides specific on-site wastewater documentation, while Wake County handles local septic and onsite wastewater matters. We identify those conditions early so they do not become an unexpected issue later in the process.
Structural Deck Plans
A permit-ready deck plan is not simply a sketch showing a rectangle behind the house. Holly Springs residential construction guidance addresses structural information such as dimensions, footings, framing, joist and beam spans, posts, flashing, and the way an attached deck connects to the home.
Not sure what your property requires?
Our permitting department reviews the lot, setbacks, easements, and existing structures before design gets too far along.
Our Process
From Your Backyard to the Final Walkthrough
1
Initial Conversation
Your project starts with a real conversation. We learn what you want to change, how you use the backyard, what is not working with the current space, and what you are hoping to build.
2
On-Site Design Consultation
A member of our team meets you at the property. We evaluate the home, backyard, elevation, access, existing deck, stairs, doors, potential layouts, materials, and design possibilities. This is where the project begins taking shape around your specific property.
3
Final Measurements & Project Verification
Your project starts with a real conversation. We learn what you want to change, how you use the backyard, what is not working with the current space, and what you are hoping to build.
4
Permitting & Pre-Construction
Our permitting department handles the required Holly Springs permit documentation and review process. At the same time, materials, construction details, and scheduling are coordinated so the project is prepared for the field.
5
Construction
Our crews build the project according to the approved design and scope. We focus on craftsmanship, jobsite organization, communication, and daily cleanup while the deck comes together.
6
Communication Throughout the Project
You should not have to wonder who to call. Our process is designed to keep the homeowner, sales representative, project management team, and field team connected throughout construction.
7
Final Walkthrough
Before we call the project complete, we walk the finished deck with you and address the final details. Because completion is not simply when the last board goes down. It is when the project is ready for you to enjoy.

FAQ
Holly Springs Deck Builder FAQs
Do I need a permit to build a deck in Holly Springs, NC?
Actual construction time varies based on size and complexity, but the complete project schedule can also be affected by permitting, HOA approval, inspections, material availability, weather, and site conditions. We discuss both the pre-construction process and anticipated construction timeline before the project begins.
Who handles deck permits in Holly Springs?
The Town of Holly Springs Development Services Department administers residential building permits through the CityView Portal. Certain property conditions—such as an on-site septic system—can also involve Wake County agencies. Elite Xteriors has a dedicated permitting department that prepares and manages the required project documentation for our customers.
Does my Holly Springs HOA need to approve my deck?
Many planned communities have architectural standards governing decks, including materials, colors, railing styles, dimensions, placement, and other exterior changes. HOA approval and municipal permitting are separate processes, so receiving one does not necessarily replace the other. If your community requires architectural approval, we recommend identifying those requirements early in the design process.
Can impervious-surface limits affect a deck in Holly Springs?
They can. Some Holly Springs properties have impervious-surface limits established through the original development’s stormwater management plan. These limits may be recorded on the property plat and can affect the amount of additional built-upon area available. Our permitting team looks for issues like this before construction begins.
What happens if I already have a shed or patio?
Existing structures and improvements can affect the site plan, available space, easements, setbacks, and potentially impervious-surface calculations. That is why our team reviews the entire property rather than looking only at the proposed deck location.
What if my Holly Springs home has septic?
Properties with on-site wastewater systems can require additional review or documentation to make sure the proposed construction does not interfere with the septic system or designated areas. Our permitting department identifies septic conditions early and helps coordinate the applicable documentation.
Do you build aluminum covered porches in Holly Springs?
Yes. Elite Xteriors offers Renaissance Structures aluminum covered porches for homeowners who want a permanent covered outdoor area with durable, low-maintenance aluminum components. The covered porch can be planned alongside a new or replacement deck so the overall space works together visually and functionally.
What types of decks does Elite Xteriors build in Holly Springs?
We build custom wood decks, composite decks, new decks, deck replacements, deck resurfacing, pool decks, custom stairs, deck railing, multi-level decks, and elevated decks. We also offer Renaissance Structures aluminum covered porches. Every project is designed around the home and property.
What is the best composite decking for a Holly Springs home?
There is not one material that is best for every homeowner. We install Trex, TimberTech, and MoistureShield, and each offers different advantages in appearance, price, moisture resistance, heat performance, warranty, and product selection. During your consultation, we help you compare options based on where the deck sits, how much sun it receives, your budget, and the amount of maintenance you want long-term.
Can you replace an existing wood deck with composite decking?
Yes. Depending on the condition and design of the existing structure, we may recommend either resurfacing the existing frame or removing it and constructing an entirely new deck. The framing needs to be evaluated before we determine whether reuse makes sense.
Can you resurface my existing Holly Springs deck?
Possibly. If the existing deck framing is structurally sound, appropriately designed, and suitable for the new decking system, resurfacing may be a good option. If the structure has substantial deterioration, inadequate framing, or a layout you want to change significantly, replacement may provide better long-term value.
How much does a new deck cost in Holly Springs?
The cost of a deck depends on considerably more than square footage. Major factors include overall size, deck height, wood vs. composite, specific decking line, railing system, number and width of stairs, demolition, existing framing, grading and access, permitting, structural requirements, and custom design details. After seeing the property and discussing the project, we provide a detailed proposal based on the actual scope.
