Before you make any changes to an existing deck or plan for a new deck, you must consult Reston Association to obtain the latest deck standard for The Hamlet. There are approved design elements for decks including materials, steps, railings, staining and location within your yard.
Failure to consult the approved standard could result in a violation requiring you make costly changes to your deck to remain in compliance!
In February 2021 RA approved changes to our deck standard which include composite materials and colors, and permitting steps on decks belonging to interior homes.
