Skokie lists decks among the work that needs a permit, and it has deleted several permit exemptions from the model code, so a deck here starts with the village. Skokie has about 66,219 residents, and 40 deck builders and related businesses are on this page. Chicago is the place the businesses name most often, ahead of Arlington Heights and Northbrook.
The village says most construction or home improvement projects need a permit. Deck applications must include a clear, legible plat of survey that the applicant confirms shows all improvements on site, and the village wants the original digital file, since scans and photos are not accepted. Both the homeowner and the contractor must sign the permit forms. Skokie's amended residential code sets the frost line depth at 42 inches, and the inspections required for the job are listed on the permit placard issued with the permit.
