"The owner of Froland Carpentry runs a first class professional company. The crew shows up on time and are pleasant and respectful. They protected surrounding work area surfaces including floor runners on the stone floors. We had cabinetry work, water damage repaired from the exterior of our house including water damage on the interior walls and baseboards. We couldn't be happier with the impeccable finish work. They are real pros. We will definitely hire them for our next project which will be staining the driveways and decks around our swimming pool. We completely trust their quality of work, clarity in communication, bids and follow through. Great find!"

"They did a great job. Very professional & courteous team lead by Mike Mohsini. He was the only contractor to give me a detailed written estimate, which was also lower than the two other verbal estimates I received. Mike also included some needed structural upgrades & other current building code requirements. The final inspection by San Francisco building department is scheduled for Monday, 6/13/22. I would definitely recommend Northgate Development to anyone in Bay Area needing deck repairs and/or replacement. Thanks for your recommendation. ~Stephen Teeple"

"Diego was awesome! He communicated with me during the entire process to ensure that I understood what was going on, agreed with minor adjustments he may need to make along the way, and that I was highly satisfied with his work. The detail and diligence he completed my deck was top notch. I would highly recommend Diego to others needing to have their deck replaced."

"We found McCormick home builders through Angie’s list. They were not one of our original contacts, but they contacted us and came out to give us a quote. Matteo was extremely helpful, informative, honest, and gave us reasonable realistic prices, and did not try to inflate the prices or pressure us in anyway. We felt very comfortable with him immediately. We felt like he was a member of the family that we could just talk to and ask questions he was very personable. He gave us his contact number in case we had other questions and he was always available when we needed him for any type of questions or concerns. Mateo‘s team did a beautiful job. They were fast. They were efficient. They cleaned up beautifully. They did a wonderful job. They were very considerate of our time our needs and our neighbors. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Matteo from McCormick home builders for any home building projects, and we will be calling him again in the future!"

"Our roof was in bad shape and we needed to have it replaced. I had gotten estimates and decided to go with Home Pro Remodeling. Emil and Brian were our contact people for the project. Emil was very professional and paid attention to our concerns. He worked with us through the entire project to our complete satisfaction. Brian is extremely courteous and helpful as well! The project went very smoothly, was completed before the initial project end date, and the results were beyond our expectations. The job turned our beautifully! Our new roof looks FANTASTIC! Our neighbors have commented to us how great it looks. We are very pleased with our experience with Home Pro Remodeling and would definitely recommend them."

"The refurbished my very old and heavy solid oak table plus 8 oak chairs. The table legs were replaced with a more contemporary design, and they were stained to match the grain of the table top. Beautiful job, great service, excellent communication. I highly recommend this company!"

"Peter was pleasant and clean in body and in work - he removed his shoes before coming in the house each time he went in or out. He was a half hour late arriving but he did call to let us know. I rated him low on the money scale because he was here ten minutes and fixed the problem however, his price was $100 for the call regardless so I couldn t argue but because I am a senior I thought he may have given me a break as he was here for so short a time. It won t stop me having him back to fix another problem."

Our story begins in the field. We didn’t enter construction from behind a desk — we started on job sites, carrying materials, learning trades hands-on, understanding structure, finishes, and the true meaning of craftsmanship. Construction is not something we stepped into — it’s something we grew up around. As third and fourth generation contractors, building is part of our DNA.\nThe values, discipline, and work ethic passed down through generations shaped who we are and how we operate today. We built this company from the ground up with one goal: to deliver honest, high-quality construction while treating every home with the respect it deserves

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Foothill Ranch, 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.
