Deck builders in Pine Valley, CA.
Identify the property’s wastewater system before choosing footing locations.
What should Pine Valley homeowners consider?
For a backcountry property, discuss access, exposure and the proposed deck location before choosing materials. Ask the reviewing authority which site-specific design and permit requirements apply.
Planning Pine Valley deck footings around wastewater services
The county’s Pine Valley community plan discusses individual septic systems in the planning area. It does not establish the system serving your property; confirm the actual wastewater service before planning work.
If the property has an onsite system, gather available tank, line and disposal-area records. Show the planned deck and footing locations to the appropriate wastewater authority and contractor, and ask how the system will be located and protected.
If records are missing, ask the responsible wastewater office how to research the property before excavation. Confirm the building authority and required plans for the deck separately.
Local reference: San Diego County Pine Valley community plan.
