"Removed old deck within a couple of hours.The new deck was installed the next day with 90 % completion. Finished product was beyond my expectations, work was performed at good time frame and crew very professional. Excellent quality of work and I would highly recommend to anyone needing concrete, deck, or fence work. New deck is 12x16 and is definitely safer than my old deck"

"If you want the job done right, Brackettry is your best bet. We hired Daryl to complete a full basement remodel and couldnâ t be more pleased with his work. The job was finished quickly, efficiently, and at the highest standard. Communication was easy and even as things came up, he was fully transparent and kept us involved in all decision making. Daryl never compromises the quality of his work with a quicker or easier route as other contractors might. He builds things to last. There arenâ t many with the same work ethic, professionalism, and overall skill as Daryl and his team, and it shows is every project they take on. HIGHLY recommend hiring Daryl for your next home improvement project!"

"We had an old deck replaced by Dave at Chesapeake Home Improvement and we are more than satisfied. Dave is very courteous and always returned a phone call or communicated to us. The deck was completed in 2 days as he advised us. Very professional and yet very friendly. We would definitely recommend his services and in the future for our next project he will be contacted without question. Judy C."

"We have twice used the services of RemodelMax. The first time was for a complete basement-to-roof rebuild of a disaster rowhouse in Baltimore. Wayne always kept his word on that protracted project. The beautiful result always rented in the first couple of showings and sold some twelve years later within the first month. We were completely delighted with our dealings with Wayne and the results he promised were what he delivered. Subsequently, we were the victim of a damaging break-in on that same property, some 11 years later, between tenants. In the process we discovered that a realtor had not reset the alarm and, as a result we lost one major appliance, had two more destroyed as the thieves tried to remove them, and the main floor severely dented by the idiots trying to move the refrigerator to the front door. But, once again, it was Wayne to the rescue. He did us a great favor by coming to take on a job in a tough neighborhood once again. Again, he made all the arrangements, including appliances replacement and the house looked good as new when we immediately put it on the market. When you hire a home improvement contractor there seem to be several things that must be considered and monitored: 1) Will they show up on timeâ ¦ and every time? 2) Will they do the work RIGHT the FIRST time? 3) Will they complete the job FAST (quick resolution)? 4) Will their pricing be fair? 5) Will they try to up-sell during the process? 6) Will their communication be consistently good; and will they be consistently available to me? 7) Will they fix anything that did not work out right? And without hassle? 8) What kind of guarantee will they provide? Honestly, having dealt with Wayne Huller of RemodelMax for twelve years we can tell you he is our go-to guy in Baltimore. Without exception, Wayne and his crew have been people of integrity and with great workmanship. They showed up as promised, did the work right the first time and without a bunch of prodding from us (we are in CA so have dealt with Wayne remotely). They have completed each project as promised with fair pricing and no up-selling. If there was a choice between methods or products Wayne explained features/benefits of each and left the decision to us. When things needed adjustment they were quick to respond. Even during our sales listing process Wayneâ s assistant came out to the house a couple of times to deal with ADT issues that were not their responsibility (avoid ADT). Their guarantee is simple: they did the work to high standards the first time; if there are reasonable subsequent issues they have proven to be very reliable. What more could one say about a contractor. Our recommendation: Donâ t hire any home improvement contractor until you meet with Wayne Huller of RemodelMax."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Charlestown, MD

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.
