"Awesome company! I had gotten many quotes ranging from $200 to $300 to replace ONE shingle on my roof. Mr. Deaville did the job quickly, competently and for a great price. I am selling the house, so the job needed to be done asap to comply with the buyers requests. I had previously contacted 3 other roofers over the course of two weeks and all said they would do the job but for one reason or another backed out, two without even contacting me. I would definitely hire Deaville Roofing again and recommend to anyone needing repairs."

"I have remodeled 5 homes and built one. With all my experience with contractors and subcontractors, I have never found one as reliable as Carson. He has helped my family with repairing older beach homes for the last three years. We have hired Carson to do a lot of jobs. He has completed all of them in a timely manner, using salt water resistant materials that will stand the test of time, and the end product demonstrates excellent craftsmanship. He helps us make decisions from 200+ miles away, staying on budget but producing excellent results. We haven't had to stress about overseeing the job as Carson treats our house as his own. We are beyond thankful for him, his team, and his attention to detail. My great grandfather built one of the homes in the 1950's and its withstood many Hurricanes. I'm so thankful that Carson can carry the tradition of excellent craftsmanship to our special place. As for specifics of this job, he built beautiful shiplap in our den, repaired our deck, replaced a rotten support beam with plumbing and electrical running through it, and painted our porch and deck. He did an incredible job."

"Evan and his team at Charleston Decks & Porches are nothing short of exceptional. They completed our entire home project — including decking, steps, railings, screens, and painting — with outstanding craftsmanship and attention to detail that’s rare to find in this industry. What truly sets Evan apart is his proactive communication and responsiveness; it was unlike any contractor we’ve ever worked with. He kept us informed every step of the way and ensured everything was done to perfection. We couldn’t recommend Charleston Decks & Porches more highly. I’d be happy to serve as a reference or show their work upon request."

"A huge appreciation to Tim Gentry and his teams at Empire Roofing and Remodeling! Let me emphasize, nobody anticipates having their siding replaced, absolutely nobody. However, Tim and his teams effortlessly turned what I dreaded into a smooth and rapid transition, seamlessly swapping out the old siding for the new James Hardie ColorPlus® Technology. Their work was truly exceptional from beginning to end. Initially, Tim steered us toward ColorPlus® Technology, which is James Hardie’s pre-painted plank siding. This remarkable finish boasts a 15-year limited warranty covering both paint and labor, guarding against peeling, cracking, and chipping. I was unaware of this option before, but the prospect of no painting for 15 years was immensely appealing. Tim's teams worked with impressive speed, professionalism, and meticulous attention to detail, maintaining an impeccably clean job site throughout the entire process. We cannot speak highly enough of Tim and Empire Roofing and Remodeling. Their service exceeded our expectations!"

"Exceptional! Jeff came to look.at the problem w my generator and in the process of diagnosing it, found the problem did not require the extensive fix proposed by another electrician. He fixed it, saving me hundreds. The other "fix" would have ended up w the exact same work done, only replacing more that frankly didn't need replacing. We plan to hire Dreamworxs for more general repairs."

"The quality workmanship of the crew was evident from day one. However, customer service by the project management was something else. Our project was nearly completed... only 2 small finishing tasks to go. Both tasks could have been completed in 2 hours or less. A month and a half later they were finally done! Luckily, I stayed on top of them with constant texts, emails, phone calls, and even an in-person visit to the office. Constant promises to come this Friday or the first of **next week** were always given but never delivered upon."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Charleston, SC

To maximize your budget, compare quotes of several builders that fit within your specifications. Don’t be afraid to draw a wider geographic circle if the contractor is willing to travel without charging more. But affordability only matters if you get a quality deck out of it.

Cutting corners or simply finding the cheapest pro could result in significant problems. The materials used may be cheap and rot quickly. The support the surface provides might be unstable and dangerous. Always consider the long-term costs and benefits of quality work. Paying less upfront may actually be more expensive if you consider the cost of repairs.

Deciding on which materials you should use depends entirely on the type of deck you’re looking for. Composite works well for a simple surface exposed to harsh elements, while concrete is the standard choice for many patios. Your decking material options can range from wood to aluminum. Learn about the pros and cons of these materials to make the right decision.

You can build a deck during any season, which is why choosing the right time for this project depends on your preferences:

  • Spring: get your deck ready in time for landscaping and to enjoy it throughout the warmer seasons.

  • Summer: use spring for the planning process, then get the project ready before it gets cold out.

  • Fall: Limit turf or landscape damage by building once most plants begin to recede.

  • Winter: make the excavation process easier, thanks to cold and firm ground.

Many deck builders prefer winter, which is also the season with the shortest waiting queues. Still, other seasons are far from impossible for this type of project.

Expect a thorough examination of the space, and the development of a project schedule. Delivery of materials might already have occurred or could be planned at this point.

Additional research about working with deck builders can help you understand what to expect from experts, and what they expect from you.

Make sure the site of the deck or patio is clear of any landscaping and debris. The contractor will also call a utilities locator service to mark power, water, cable, and other services around the area where they will be digging. The cleaner the area your builder has to work with, the more quickly they can get started. Make sure they have space to park any construction vehicles. Find a dry space for materials that might need storage during the install. Finally, ensure clear access to the site through your house or property.

When it comes to the DIY vs. hire a pro decision for your deck, the answer tends to be clear. Only take it on yourself if you have significant expertise and experience. Without either, you risk building a faulty exterior space, leading to injury risks. Projects built without necessary expertise also break more quickly, making them more expensive in the long run.

If you do want to take on decking as a DIY project, be sure to do your research. Learn about installing the posts and footing for your framing. Understand how to lay decking boards and build the railings and stairs you need for access and security.
