"We were looking to get our old deck torn down and a new one put up with a roof over the top. The quote we got for our project was very reasonable. Throughout the whole process he and his team were very meticulous in making sure the build was done right. They were very friendly and kept a pretty clean job site and didn't litter our yard with construction material. Every step of the way I was impressed with their work, their speed and their professionalism."

"Everything they have done has been exceptional! Greg was our on-site contractor and he was awesome to work with! He answered all our questions that he could or found the right resources to help us. There were a couple unexpected issues that came up (hidden in the walls) that they immediately took care of for us. Would recommend Erich and his team to everyone. Already have them set up for the next remodel project."

"Awesome experience with Wyatt’s HVAC and home solutions. My HVAC unit was over 10 years old and not cooling properly David diagnosed the problem and recommended a new 2.5 ton 15 seer unit, the price was very reasonable compared to others folks I got quotes from. He replaced my system within 2 days of me signing up with him. He was timely and very courteous, I recommend his service would not call anyone else for HVAC needs."

"by David & Miyoko
Ethos Kitchen & Bath LLC epitomizes
Aristotle qualities of an ethical person - good sense, good moral
character and goodwill.  Company founder David Gurwell
used these attributes in focusing on our needs in delivering a job well done and
at a very reasonable price.  We were always first consulted before purchase of
materials regarding 
best choices in price and quality.  Our newly finished
tile bath is worthy of royalty and has, no doubt, greatly
enriched the value of our home.  Both David and his Manager,
son Ben, demand quality of their "crafted artisans"
and each delivers.  All were honest, reliable, polite, clean and thoughtful. 
Thank you Angie's List!  We highly recommend this
company - they'll be our first choice in any future renovation.

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Elwood, KS

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.
