Q: Do drawings for Virginia Deck Permit Plans & Structural Drawings need to be sealed?

It depends on the project and the jurisdiction. Many residential projects do not require a seal. Where one is required, licensed professional review can be coordinated, subject to the professional's independent review.

Under Virginia's statewide building code framework, local building departments manage submittals. We help organize deck layouts, framing, supports, site placement and engineering coordination according to your actual project.
