Lake City sits roughly 16 miles east of Jonesboro, and it's not just another town in the county, it's one of Craighead County's two county seats, a status it shares with Jonesboro itself. That's an unusual arrangement most counties don't have, and it comes with its own city government rather than deference to the county on permitting.
Lake City has its own City Hall at 406 Court Street. Contact (870) 237-4431 to confirm the current deck permit fee, process, and requirements for your specific address before finalizing a design.
Lake City sits toward the eastern edge of the flat Delta ground that makes up most of the county away from Crowley's Ridge. Soil conditions still vary lot to lot, footing depth gets confirmed on-site rather than assumed.
New deck construction, composite installations, repair, and refinishing, ground-level and elevated, same standards we apply anywhere in the service area. Contact us for a free quote.

We provide the same deck-building services in Lake City that we offer throughout the Jonesboro area:
