"The project went well. The guys showed up on time and completed the job in a timely manner. They were kind and easy to work with and cleaned up afterwards. They replaced the staircase on my deck and it's a lot sturdier than the old one. Can't wait to stain it in a few weeks. I will recommend this company for any deck work you may have."

"Brian did a fantastic job. Immediately understood I wanted an easy quick fix. Had two other bids who wanted to do major rework to the deck despite me telling them I just wanted it leveled out as much as we could without it turning into a big job. Was quick and cleaned up after. Good price. Will work with him for all future exterior projects."

"This is a maintenance free deck that should last my lifetime. On the higher end of the cost scale but I didn't want wood that would need stained or painted. And I especially didn't want decking material that deteriorates after 5 years. Or discolors and gets covered in mold. Very sturdy build. Build team asked me about any issues they ran into and together we worked out a plan. Very happy with the people and the deck."

"We were having trouble finding anyone that would take on the small job of rebuilding our front porch decking and stairs. James came out to give us a bid and called me that same night with the figures. We also wanted to replace our front door and he told us where to go (Hoods in Festus) to look for a new one. (They were great to work with, too.) The deck and stairs were completed within a few weeks of signing the contract and the new door was replaced within a few days of it finally arriving from the manufacturer. James also had his crew replace the shutters on the front of the house and is going to help us install new lights by the new door and garage door. He has been extremely helpful to us and we plan to use him for future projects. Everything looks great and we are well pleased with his work!"

"From the initial sales call to the completed deck, someone from the company was in contact with us constantly. Everyone was very helpful (even as we changed our plans a few times). Our construction crew was thorough and responsive to any of our requests or concerns. The Craftsmanship is excellent. Would highly recommend them. Very happy with our deck."

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.
