"Chris, Noah, his chief foreman, and their entire crew were truly outstanding. I contacted them initially for a bathroom remodel project because of their excellent reputation in that area. However, Chris is so knowledgeable and easy to work with, that I decided to have them do a complete house remodel. Over a three-month period, they replaced the entire roof, remodeled two bathrooms, three bedrooms, the living room, dining room, basement, sunroom, and a large family room. They put hardwood floors throughout, new ceilings, and totally redid the electrical system with new lights, fans, and outlets. In addition, they did some outside painting, installed new floodlights, and repaired the gutters. I couldn't be happier with their work. We now have a beautiful new home. They are perfectionists and many times would plaster the sheetrock several times until it looked just perfect. They paid attention to every detail, even things like mounting new TVs in the bedroom and family room. Most importantly, they were fun to have in the house. They were completely honest, had a good sense of humor, and were very respectful and sensitive to our needs. Chris would take me shopping for the tile, plumbing fixtures, cabinets. and granite countertops. Talk about personal service. I would recommend them highly for any type of home remodel project. They are true professionals that take a tremendous amount of pride in their work."

"We needed to replace a patch of our living room ceiling due to damage from a water leak upstairs. We contacted C&B, who responded and quoted us a price quickly. The price was fair for a multi-day job, they got it done within a week, and they even helped us repaint the ceiling. Very professional, courteous, and trustworthy. We'd strongly recommend!"

In the same week, we had three repairmen come to fix the issues. They were very thorough and went above and beyond to complete the work. My husband and I are very happy with the final results. We highly recommend them for all your repairs or deck building needs!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Cheshire, CT

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.
