"We did a 3 room kitchen and bath remodel in just under 3 months, and we are over the moon with how well everything came out! Micky and his team are simply superb — every team he brought in did top notch work, including tiles, flooring, plumbing, electrical, countertop, cabinets, glass, stucco, windows, drywall, and more. Micky coordinated everything to perfection, ensuring the project was progressing day to day, sometimes hour by hour. The only “negative” was that we had to work hard to keep up with their impressive pace (in terms of making decisions and ordering needed supplies) and it was well worth it! We are now starting an ADU conversion and we can’t wait for the results."

"Peter is very professional, personable and easy to work with. I hired Peter to fix the vinyl flooring installation around the top of the circular staircase. His team were professional, did a great detailed job and cleaned after themselves. I will definitely hire them again."

"Leo was very helpful and quick to respond. We’re happy with how our 2 bathrooms turned out. Project was completed within the time promised. Our only complaint is that the workers did not clean up very well. But overall, we’re satisfied and we’ll use them again. "

"Very unprofessional company. They charge me $40,000 for my payers which were very happy with. However, the on-site manager when job was done asked me if I wanted my pavers sealed to protect them. I asked him that's not included in the $40,000. He said no and he told me if I had told you that up front you wouldn't have bought the pavers. He wanted 5200 to seal the papers. I had a professional tile company which happens to be a very good friend of mine come out and seal them for $2,000. They look amazing. However, system papers now has voided my warranty because I had another professional company do what they should have done to begin with. Very bad experience overall with management I don't recommend I have found a company that does pavers same quality. Half the price. I had all my additional work done by this other guy. It matches. It looks exactly the same quality is 100% All I can say is buyer beware. Do not use system papers. They will rip you off also. I made a very clear to the on-site manager. I was unhappy. He said he would discuss with his bosses and get back to me. Nobody has ever called me back to try to make it right"

"Fantastic work! From demo, hardscape, decking, pebble field, irrigation, lighting and planting, all came out perfectly. I started my process bidding from seven landscapers. Many with excellent references. Ron, Rigo and the team at EnviroScape exceeded my expectations. Ron worked hard to get to my price, showed up on the job regularly and made it happen ahead of schedule. Rigo and the team arrived every morning and made fast progress on a daily basis. As the project evolved there were several changes to the landscape plan. Each was implemented quickly and either didn’t impact the bid or did so very fairly or minimally. We’re thrilled with the result. Ron made it fun and better than the original scope of the plans. Highly recommend EnviroScape for quality, timeliness and value."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Dana Point, CA

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.
