"I could not be happier with the job Tim and John did installing new windows. It was difficult to find someone to cut a hole in the side of my house as these were not replacements, but a new installation. The windows and trim match the existing windows. Couldn’t ask for a better experience and outcome., I can’t recommend Tim enough."

"Hired them to fix a door that would not close properly. They fixed the door and now it works great. They are good at communicating through the whole process, from identifying the problem and how they will fix it. They kept us up-to-date as they began the process and right through completion. I would hire them again for any home projects."

"Jace was the lead on our metal roof installation, installed several windows (new construction windows on older house), and vinyl side the house. In addition to clapboard style vinyl siding, Jace installed stacked stone vinyl on our entry way, which came out beautiful. Jace was great to work with, on time, and did professional work. We were very pleased. Still a lot of work to be done, but the attached photo shows some of the work Jace did for us. "

"My project was small compared to many other projects out there. And yet Josh and Straight Line Constitution were happy to take my business and made it a priority. There was some urgency to getting it done and they sent the right number of people to meet the deadline. And when unforeseeable complications arose they worked with me in order to find a solution that would achieve the goal of the project without extreme cost overrun. There are many contractors out there who will give you a wide range of quotes. If you want to go cheap then find someone who will do a half ass job for little money. But if you want it done right and you want it to last call Straight Line Constitution. The rates are reasonable the quality is top-notch and they're very friendly people to work with."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Hillsborough, NH

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.
