"I entered my project into Home Advisor on Tuesday and on Friday it was done. Bill from Sky City contacted us right away. He explained the options we had for fixing or replacing our siding. He gave us a fair price for the work. I am so pleased with the results! He was fast, reasonable and did a great job! I will definitely be contacting him again!"

"Ryan does great work, we love our decks! We bought a house that needed some work including a large deck in the back of the house. It was 30 years old and not safe to use so he took it down completely and built us a new one. We love spending time outside on it. Since he did such a good job there, we also asked him to do the front entrance deck and what a difference it has made in our curb appeal. He is thorough and patient and takes care in his work and it shows. He’s also just a nice guy. We really enjoy working with Ryan and will continue to do so in the years to come. Highly recommended!"

"What a joy to see in today's world: pride and ownership of services provided; Jared C. and his crew delivered just that. We turned to Home Advisor after a few failed attempts to find a contractor on our own for a total bathroom remodel. We filled out the questionnaire and were pleased when Jared Clairmont responded within a short period of time. We set up a meeting. Our first impressions of Jared were based on his punctual arrival, his friendliness, and the fact that he listened carefully to what our goals were. Soon after, he returned a detailed quote to us as well as concrete start and end dates for the project. Our second impressions came when he and his exceptional crew began the project, again punctual. We felt we were on the right path with our decision to hire him. As the project moved forward, Jared was communicative every step of the way. If there was a question we needed or wanted addressed, Jared responded quickly. Every communication was pleasant and supportive of our needs to understand what we were observing as the project matured. We threw him a few curve balls in the form of last-minute changes, which were received just as pleasantly as every other communication, and he and his crew delivered with ease. It must be said that we are not easy people to please.This is our home and we expected compliance with our wishes, quality of workmanship, and above all else, honesty. In all of these aspects we were completely satisfied. We will turn to Jared in the future for our home improvement needs. Kelly and Del L."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Ivoryton, CT

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.
