Deck Builder in Lithia Springs, GA

Lithia Springs is an unincorporated community, so deck permits here come from Douglas County rather than a city. It sits in the Sweetwater Creek basin, home to Sweetwater Creek State Park and its 15 miles of trails, and the county keeps a 150-foot buffer along channels and waters that count as State Waters.

Its post-war neighborhoods are mostly Minimal Traditional and ranch houses from the 1930s to the 1970s. It's also our home base.
