But when in doubt, ask the council.Most people who think know that I'm crazy.

Mako planning issues etc aside some councils require building permits.
Most, if the deck is under 20 m2 & less than a meter above g/l don't.
As mentioned it's best to check with the local building dep't.
Even if you don't need a permit make sure you don't bridge any termite protection that may be in place.Peter Clarkson
