"Thiago did an excellent job on our bulkhead stair repair. I also had a lamp post replaced and he did the wiring for that job as well. I will definitely use his services again. I highly recommend you call him for your next job."

"From the first contact with Robert, we knew he would be our first choice. He was easy to talk to and answered every question with details. He also provided samples of the Azek decking, which I had previewed online. That made the choice obvious when placed next to our paint. By the end of our conversation, we had an approximate date and price for replacing our entry deck. The project met our expectations and was completed in one day. We would definitely hire Bayside again for any future remodeling."

"Roberto and his team were excellent. With painting - - the true quality is in the preparation. I have never seen painters do a more thorough job of preparation. We also had many shingles that needed to be replaced. The team did an awesome job with that as well. If there were a higher grade than an "A" I would give it to them. The team was professional, neat and clean, courteous and respectful. They arrived when they said they would and worked hard all day. After a long day they then cleaned up after themselves at the end of every day even if they were coming back the next morning. The price was more than fair. Thank you Roberto and team. You are all fabulous."

"We would definitely hire PAV Construction again for any home project. They were highly professional, on-time, on-budget, always very pleasant, and their work is OUTSTANDING! This was a major remodel of the entire downstairs of our home with wall removal and wall construction, new windows, doors, new kitchen, installation of hardwood floors throughout the first floor, rebuilding of staircase, hardwood flooring in the upstairs hallway, basement flooring and ceiling. The work exceeded our expectations!! it is absolutely beautiful! Pavlin, the owner, offered excellent suggestions for the remodel. His communication was incredible. He regularly kept us updated with texts and photos, and responded to any questions within the day. His crew was excellent as well as talented, hardworking and accommodating."

Customers say: Quick response

"Kreative Barns did a complete remodel of our studio beach cottage. Konstantin had amazing ideas about how to maximize the space, with no style or beauty compromised. He and his team listened to our needs and created a beautiful interior space that lets the exterior views show. To a person, each member of the team was kind, professional and skilled. Every time I walk into this cottage I smile. It is just what we wanted it to be, and more. I will use Kreative Barns again in the future, and recommend them highly."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Chatham, MA

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.
