"J Sitko was highly responsive to our request through Angie's. Jack Sitko came out and gave us a thorough & detailed quote for our deck replacement and exterior wall/siding repair. The team was very responsive to our initial questions, and when we selected Sitko for the work took care of all the steps from design and permitting through final inspection. The crew came quickly and worked steadily throughout the whole project, even in the colder days of December. They identified numerous issues with our exterior wallboards and quickly replaced all rotting boards (a larger project than we imagined). The deck went up quickly and was exceedingly well built and secured. The team wasn't the neatest I've seen, given this was renovation to our existing living space, but were quick to haul away all construction material. Sitko took care of our punch list promptly, making sure we were completely satisfied. The whole project took less than a month, and we now have a new exterior space to enjoy come spring!"

"We highly recommend Jason! So happy we found him to replace and stain our deck. Great customer service: very responsive, attentive to details, tested many color swatches prior to staining, did not ask for payment until the work was done and we were fully satisfied. The deck looks fantastic! Excellent work at a reasonable cost."

"I initially hired HDH to help improve our laundry room work area. He removed an old cement sink, installed a replacement, relocated the washer/dryer and installed cabinets. Andrew and his team had all the skills needed - electrical, plumbing, carpentry - to complete the job quickly. I hired them again to paint a new exterior door, install floating shelves, and replace a broken faucet. I'm glad to have finally found a reliable and great to work with handyman. We look forward to working with them again soon."

"FB Construction really stepped it up. We called them in for a full house remodel - their quote was not just reasonable, but professional in that they advised where not to waste money and where to focus on quality. The work was done incredibly fast, with multiple teams working at the same time (electricians on one floor, plumbers downstairs, and paint and flooring done in parallel). All in all they are professionals and will tell you what's best so you don't have to research everything and explain pros&cons. The communication is stellar - accessible by phone/email and will show up when asked, with clear updates on progress and next steps. The final bill was exactly per quote - because they SAVED ME MONEY, and then I got to invest in quality parts/projects. After the project was done, they were responsive and came out same day for follow-ups and little touch-ups. These guys have been doing this for a long time and it shows. Even if they are too busy to do a project they will either schedule it out or recommend someone else they trust and work with. Recommended to countless neighbors, family and friends. Old world craftsmanship and professionalism with today's customer experience!"

"Adelmo and his job did an excellent job of replacing my condo deck. I live in a 1998 building and my north-facing, 2nd floor deck was severely rotten (and had never been replaced). Adelmo and his team efficiently and effectively replaced the entire deck in a single day. Throughout the whole process Adelmo was very responsive and I look forward to working with Master Pro on future jobs."

"I recently bought a house in Winnetka and the exterior trim was in bad condition in a couple of spots. Not a lot of contractors wanted to do this job but they did. They replaced all the bad trim and did it to completion. Trim, Paint, Caulking, everything. They even pointed out things that also needed work that I didn?t notice. I highly recommend hiring GF Carpentry if you want Good and honest work done.?"

"About a month ago, we had them patch up the old fence around our back yard. Then, just last week, they put back up a section of fence blown down by a recent wind. Though, because of the volume of such repair jobs, they made the repair later than scheduled, they did the job at no cost! They were incredibly generous! They won us over completely, and we'll use them again when we replace the entire fence."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Glencoe, IL

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.
