"Bob was fantastic and helped us completely transform our kitchen and first-floor living area. What started as a kitchen project expanded to include new flooring throughout the downstairs, updated plaster ceilings, and additional recessed lighting — all of which were handled seamlessly. His pricing was very fair, and his communication throughout the process was excellent. We were so impressed that we brought him back the following year to build a new front porch and also referred him to a family member for her bathroom renovation. Highly recommend!"

"Ill never use Angi again. There was no way to contact my installer. They never showed up for my job. I say call a local pro. At least they shoe up and appreciate your business. "

"recently J Alex to renovate my bathroom and address water damage throughout my home caused by busted pipes. They patched holes, painted, and handled every detail with great care and professionalism. While they were here, they worked long hours and stayed focused until the job was done correctly. I was very impressed with their dedication and attention to detail, and I would absolutely recommend handyman J Alex to anyone looking for reliable construction work in the billerica Massachusetts area."

"Leo and his crew were some of the most professional painters I have ever worked with. Leo is incredibly responsive and worked with our budget for a full exterior repaint of our house. His team is extremely detail oriented, conscientious, kind and beyond professional. They meticulously cleaned up everyday and were prompt with arriving and staying for the entire day. The job was completed in exactly the timeframe provided and we couldn't be happier with the final result. I would recommend Leo and his team to anyone looking for home improvements - they are outstanding!"

"This is the second time we’ve hired Masonworks, and once again, they did an awesome job. They replaced our walkways and stairs, and the quality of the work is excellent—everything looks great. The project went smoothly from start to finish, and the crew was professional and efficient. We’re very happy with the results and would absolutely recommend Masonworks."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Groveland, MA

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.
