General building contractor who currently works independently and is looking to grow business to hire one employee. I do mostly carpentry and cabinet making my self. I do perform other trades depending on how much there is. I have good dependable subcontractors that I call when necessary. Depending on the size of the job, I ask for down payment and progress payments or may just wait to bill the job once it is complete.

"We had a fountain built a couple of years ago that’s been nothing but a series of breakdowns. It became clear that the contractor had been in way over his head. Finally fed up with the problems, we asked Systems Pavers to take a look at it. Talking with Mike Ammenwerth their designer, it became clear that it was built with materials that were wrong (wood instead of block) and that the fountain was badly designed. Though it was expensive, we decided to tear down and start over. Best decision ever! We had a design within a week and started construction within another week. System Pavers was the best. The construction team showed up on time and worked every available day until the job was done. I can’t say enough about Miguel Ruvalcaba and his coworker, Ernie. Miguel is a flat-out craftsman. He worked carefully and precisely and produced a beautiful, solid fountain. The guys even improved the aesthetics of some other work attached to the fountain and worked under lights and in the rain to keep on time. What’s more, Miguel and Ernie kept a clean work site, putting away materials and cleaning up every night. Their project manager, Adam, stopped by regularly to make sure we were satisfied with the work and it’s progress. I wish System Pavers did more general contracting because I’d hire them in a minute for a number of other projects I have yet to tackle."

"\I already had some general drawings of what I wanted done. Mike took the drawings and tweaked them; adding and taking away some elements as needed. We met several times to discuss the different elements in the drawings until we both felt we had a good design. The drawings were for a mantle, cabinetry, and molding/trim. We had to wait for a mason to install the brick hearth around the fireplace. Then Mike built the mantle in his shop, at one time bringing the piece to the house to check for proper fit. The mantle design included the look of  "dental" molding which is mimicked in the molding/trim; he also constructed a "dental"  molding to go around the room sort of like crown molding, but technically not crown molding. He also built the cabinets which included book shelves, enclosed cabinetry for a sound system, and cubbies for firewood. The work was all custom; no stock cabinets.  Once all the pieces were constructed, Mike painted them in his shop with a special durable spray paint (I don't remember the name of it) so we would not have to deal with him painting in the house. Then he brought the pieces to the house to install. The installation took about 3 days which included installing electrical boxes in the cabinets for the sound system. He took care to calk any gaps and to do any touch up painting as needed.
Mike was very professional and yet personable during the entire process. He was very thoughtful about calling to confirm appointments, showing up at the right time, and using his time well. He was good about meeting with the mason to ensure both were on the same page with regard to the project.  He kept me informed on the progress during the construction. He took care to not make a mess and would clean up at the end of the day. He worked steadily and efficiently. I felt the price was very fair. He showed genuine enthusiasm for the project the whole way through. The final product looks very professional and custom, which is what I wanted.

"We worked with Ali (sales manager) and Tony (project manager), who took the time to design a project that made sense for our property and our budget, made a number of suggestions and recommendations and were never pushy or tried to "sell" us on something. The crew really went above and beyond to provide top quality workmanship and overall we were in very good hands. Highly recommended!"

"We are beyond thrilled with our new deck built by Expert Home Builders! We had a bit of a tricky backyard layout, but the team worked around every challenge with creativity and skill. They were super respectful of our property, and the crew worked quietly and cleanly throughout the project. I loved that they kept communication open the entire time — no guessing games about what was happening or when. The quality of the materials and the craftsmanship is just second to none. If you’re looking for a builder who genuinely cares about doing the job right, look no further!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Escalon, 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.
