"Cannot praise the construction crew enough. They showed up to work on time, cleaned up everyday, polite and courteous, and the work was meticulous. Front end of the experience was not as ugh pleasant trying to work through contract. But if you can get through that phase the project was worth it."

"After a struggle, I found All Phase Construction LLC and its owner James. He came in and bid a kitchen remodel for me. The kitchen was gutted by All Phase and remodeled. His work and knowledge was wonderful. Everyone he brought in from start to finish did great work. He was very accommodating and after I could not find the countertop I was looking for he found exactly the business that I needed. My kitchen turned out absolutely perfect and is a work of art. Before the kitchen project was complete, it turned out my deck needed some serious work. I got a quote from James, plus a couple more. He was beyond reasonable with his bid, so I asked him to replace the deck. It was in worse shape than previously thought. He brought me brochures and helped me pick materials that would be best. When this job was complete, it was perfect. I would totally recommend All Phase Construction and James 1000%. I canâ t say enough good things about his work."

"Finished product is very nice. Not one difficulty with Mr. Dodson. Would definitely recommend him for deck building. Cape Girardeau seems to delight in building codes to make things difficult. Mr. Dodson navigated through the system despite the city doing its best to frustrate the builder."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in De Soto, MO

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.
