"After doing much research I hired John Krause Construction for a very large project: Sunroom addition, deck, patio, front hardscape and landscape with design of my entire house and yard! John came out personally and was very honest and his pricing was fair. They did an amazing job taking my vision and making it a reality. The crews were efficient and responsive. I will use them in the future."

"We love Deane, Tony, and their crew almost as much as we love our new home renovation! What a positive experience we had working with Berith Builders. From the first time we met Deane to discuss our project, we found him personable, professional, respectful, positive, fair, engaged, and collaborative. And we ended the 6 month project feeling the same way about him, Tony and everyone that worked on our job - which is a rare occurrence in the building/construction industry. Communication was timely, pricing/cost estimating was transparent, the project site was well maintained, the crew was respectful of our neighbors and neighborhood, the workmanship and attention to details was first class, and unanticipated issues were discussed and resolved creatively and fairly. Our renovation included an addition with a wood burning fireplace, completely renovating two bathrooms, upgrading lighting in the existing house, upgrading the internal staircase and balcony railings, refinishing the hard wood flooring, replacing a few external doors, adding a new front porch, and upgrading our screened porch and deck. We also wanted to acknowledge that Tony is quite a woodworker/craftsman. He went above and beyond on several aspects of the project to give it his special touch. He custom designed and built a gorgeous oak loft ladder and all of the stair pickets, posts, and handrails for us - they are all works of art that really make our new renovation special. We would definitely HIGHLY recommend Berith Builders and would hire them again without question for any future home renovation projects."

"We are pleased overall with the composite deck we received. It took a little longer than was initially communicated to begin the project, but once work started they finished in less than a week. Great quality and responsive customer service. I would use this company again in the future."

"Prompt service. Fair price and excellent results. My new composite porch and stamped concrete walkway look terrific. The crew were very hard working with outstanding attention to detail. The owner answered all my questions before and during construction. I couldn't be happier with the results."

"A neighbor had some work done by 7th State and I watched their progress, so I asked the neighbor for their contact. I had a small porch replaced by a screened porch. The original porch was wood and starting to dry rot, and was slippery in rain and snow. I met with Anthony in February for an estimate and to tell him what I wanted. The County permit process and requirements for improvement went on until September -- an 8 month wait. They required me to plant trees and shrubbery simply to replace something already there, OR pay a fee to not plant trees and shrubbery. Ashley in the office helped me through this and kept me advised of the progress toward getting it started. Work began on September 10, ended mid October. Each step had to be approved by the permit office. The workmanship and finished product are outstanding. Neighbors have complimented me on the improvement. Some workers worked up until 7:00pm to finish their part of the project. I would recommend this contractor to anybody."

"Colin came to the house and spent a lot of time with me deciding what would the best deck for my house would look like. After several days of me bothering him incessently he patiently layed out for me what turned out to be an absolutely stunning deck. The quality of work is beyond anything I have seen in my neighbors and friends decks. Colin worked with me on the price and he took a hit on the chin when the design ran into a problem with the landscape of my yard. He corrected the design and added a wrap around to account for my yard issues. He refused to add a penny to the job for the change even though it cost him supplies and time."

"Overall, I thought the person that came to my home to give an estimate of the patio we wanted to build was not very professional. She came up with a sketch for the patio which did not incorporate the design ideas that I wanted. She was willing to re-sketch the design 2 times to get it right, but then seemed to get annoyed that I asked questions about the materials that were being used, the options that were available...etc. Granted she may have been having a bad week, but I expected more. Ended up going with a different contractor and glad I did because the quote I got from them was $1000 less and I loved the job they did. 
Overall, I would give them a B-.

"The service went extremely well. The price was not the cheapest, but I think it was the best value for the money. I have been tremendously pleased with the service. We had a problem with the screen door on the sliding glass door that I had done. They came out until it was fixed. They eventually had to replace the screen door."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in California, MD

Northern white cedar is the most affordable cedar decking type and delivers exceptional value with low material expenditures. This option provides proven cost efficiency, meets essential durability standards, and is easy to paint or stain to meet your aesthetic preferences. By comparison, eastern red and western red cedar supply extra longevity and richer texture for a modest increase in investment.

Yes, cedar is a great choice for decking material. It offers a timeless look and natural resistance to decay and insect damage. Keep in mind that cedar requires regular maintenance, like resealing and cleaning, to keep it in top shape. With proper care, a cedar deck can enhance the appeal and value of your outdoor space for years to come.

No, cedar is not pressure-treated because it contains oils and tannins that naturally resist insect damage, rot, and decay. With regular maintenance, including annual cleaning and resealing every two to three years, cedar maintains its structural integrity and pleasing appearance for 10 to 15 years or more. Cedar’s natural durability, without need for chemical treatments, makes it an environmentally friendly option for outdoor structures like decks.

You should stain or seal your cedar deck every two to three years to maintain its appearance and longevity. This helps protect the wood from moisture, mold, and environmental damage, preserving its natural color and extending its lifespan. Regular maintenance keeps your outdoor space both attractive and durable season after season.
