General Contractor Serving Amanda, Ohio
Amanda is about 15 minutes southwest of our shop in Lancaster. We do not have an office in Amanda; we drive down for estimates and work out of Lancaster. We build additions, decks, pole barns, kitchens and concrete in the Village of Amanda and across Amanda Township, and the first thing we check is which of those two your property is in, because they zone separately.
What We Build Around Amanda
Home additions
bedrooms, family rooms and in-law suites, sized to the lot and, out in the township, to the septic system.
Decks and porches
decks on frost-depth footings with flashed ledgers, plus covered and screened porches.
Pole barns and garages
post-frame shops, garages and equipment storage on township acreage.
Concrete
driveways, pole barn slabs, patios and walks.
Kitchens and baths
remodels with the plumbing and electrical done right behind the finishes.

An Amanda mailing address can be in the village or in the township around it. Fairfield County does not review houses, so the zoning office for your parcel and the health department are the ones that matter.

Amanda Township
Outside the village, the township runs its own zoning. Township zoning (740) 777-0826.

Amanda Building Questions, Answered
Does a home addition need a permit in Amanda?
It needs zoning approval. Inside the village, that is a zoning permit from the Village of Amanda. In Amanda Township, it is a township zoning permit. Fairfield County does not review one- to three-family houses, so there is no county building permit, but a new bathroom needs a plumbing permit from the Fairfield Department of Health, and septic review applies if the addition affects the system.
Who handles zoning: the Village of Amanda or Amanda Township?
It depends on which side of the village line your parcel is on. The village zones property inside its limits through the village office, (740) 969-4771. Amanda Township zones the unincorporated land around it, (740) 777-0826. Check your parcel record with the Fairfield County Auditor if you are not sure.
How much does a custom deck cost in Amanda?
Size, height and material drive most of it. A low pressure-treated deck costs far less per square foot than a raised composite deck with stairs and a roof. Our deck cost guide walks through how we price it, and we give you a written line-item estimate after we measure.
Do you have an office in Amanda?
No. Our shop is in Lancaster, about 15 minutes away. We come to you for the estimate and work from there.
