"We first had our back deck replaced and were so happy with the results that a year later we signed up to have them replace our front porch. Even though it was snowy and cold out the crew did a great job. We would highly recommend using GreenShield the whole process went very smoothly. We love our deck and porch."

"I wish I could give 10 stars. Our porch was rotting away and had to be completely torn down and rebuilt. This company has experience with pictures to prove. Finished project exceeded expectations. The project was completed in quoted time. No hidden or surprise costs. Brent will not steer you wrong in creating/fixing a project. He is honest and pays close attention to detail. Its as if he was fixing his own porch. I cant wait to work with him again! So very very pleased!"

"Kevin is super responsive and was extremely detailed in all the design details before we were even placed on the schedule. Once on the schedule it all happened in the time frame that Kevin said it would happen. Drew, who does the work, is really experienced and knows what he is doing. He is very pleasant and was flexible to accommodate small changes as we went along. There were a few picky attention to detail things that I wonder about and was a little surprised that Kevin didn't come around at the completion of the job for a walk through to make sure we were happy with everything. But the bottom line is that we love the porch and overall are really happy with the way everything went. We especially love the pet door that Drew built and the hardware that Kevin came up with. We are happy to recommend Kevin and Drew."

Customers say: Quality work

"He did a terrific job demolishing and rebuilding the old deck â quality work. He even finished the job early â 3 days instead of 4-5. He is also easy to reach if you have questions. When he came out for the initial consultation I told him I was also looking for someone to power wash my house and he said he does that too. So, I hired him to do that also. Iâ ve hired him to come back in about a month to stain the new deck. I highly recommend him."

"I would recommend R Wright Construction to anyone who is needing any kind of work done. George, the owner, was very hands on with the whole production. His employees were wonderful. Any people he had come in to do wiring, insulation, construction, roofing, etc. were all extremely nice and knew their jobs and did them on time. I had never had anything like this done before, and he made it easy to work with him and I will definitely be calling him back for other projects that I need coming up."

"We initially had the boards on the upper section of our deck replaced, only to realize that several joists needed replacing due to weather rot. The team handled the unexpected additional work seamlessly and was able to complete everything in the same day. They were professional, polite, and efficient throughout the process. The pricing was very reasonable, and we're definitely planning to hire them again for future projects!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Indianapolis, IN

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.
