Useful answers before you begin.
Can I supply my own materials?
Yes. PHC supports both homeowner-supplied and PHC-supplied material projects. Before construction, PHC confirms that homeowner-supplied materials are suitable for the intended use and that quantities, condition, and project requirements have been addressed. Homeowners make the final material and feature selections.
Are deck and fence estimates free?
Yes. PHC provides free estimates for residential deck and fence projects.
When does a Saskatoon deck need a permit?
The City of Saskatoon currently states that a building permit is required for a deck that meets any of the following conditions:
- higher than 200 mm (8 inches) above ground level;
- more than 2.32 square metres (25 square feet) and more than 600 mm (24 inches) above ground; or
- equipped with more than three risers.
Does a residential fence need a City building permit?
The City states that ordinary residential fence installation does not require a building permit, but zoning requirements still apply. Current listed maximum heights are 1.0 metre in required front yards and 2.0 metres in side and rear yards. On corner lots, fences and vegetation higher than 1.0 metre cannot be within the corner visibility triangle measured 6.0 metres in each direction from the street corner. Property lines must be accurately located, and Sask 1st Call should be contacted at least 48 hours before digging. Pool fences require consultation with Building Standards.
Read the City of Saskatoon Residential Fences pageWho handles permits and inspections?
The project agreement confirms whether PHC or the homeowner submits and pays for each required permit. The City determines which inspection stages apply to permit-required residential work. If an inspector identifies a correction within PHC’s scope, PHC addresses it and coordinates the required follow-up. Approvals are not guaranteed.
What about projects outside Saskatoon?
Saskatoon’s thresholds and zoning rules are not assumed to apply in surrounding communities. Requirements are confirmed with the municipality or authority having jurisdiction for that project.
