Hardscaping in Holly Springs: good to know

Patios and walls in Holly Springs come with a few rules worth settling before the design is final.

  • Do I need a permit for a patio or retaining wall in Holly Springs?

    Holly Springs requires permits for patios, driveway expansions, irrigation systems and retaining walls with 4 feet or more of unbalanced fill. Each lot has an impervious surface limit shown on its plat, and the Town does not approve going over it. Permeable pavers are not exempt without an approved plan.

  • Are there rules about where a yard drain can go in Holly Springs?

    Holly Springs does not regulate drainage between private lots and treats disputes as a civil matter between neighbors. That makes it worth solving runoff on your own lot, with grading or a drain that outlets on your property, instead of sending it next door. Source: Town of Holly Springs: Property Information.

NC State Extension notes that Piedmont subsoil is high in clay, so water moves through it slowly and it can stay wet for long periods. That is why base preparation and drainage decide how long a patio or wall stays level. Source: NC State Extension: Modifying Soil for Plant Growth Around Your Home.

We work throughout Holly Springs, including 12 Oaks, Holly Glen, Sunset Ridge, Sunset Oaks, Arbor Creek, Bridgewater, Morgan Park, Woodcreek and Braxton Village, ZIP code 27540.
