"From his rapid response on a free quote to completion of my request, Shane of DC Services was on point! His entire crew was courteous, positive, hard working and reliable. Amazing! Shane’s questions and suggestions were very helpful, it made me think of things I hadn’t. He always understood and honored my vision and the reasons behind it which made my project a breeze. I trust them completely. Shane and Shannon initially came to do the free estimate on my weed infested backyard (aggravated by recent rains). An estimate was produced a few days later and they arrived on the weekend. Shane’s schedule of services were flawless, he stuck to the time table and started and finished exactly when he said he would. As stated in the proposal, Shane and crew cleared out the weeds, removed old gravel, put a weed deterrent, laid a weed barrier and edging around the perimeter of my backyard. They also removed all the debris along with a wooden table that I didn’t want. In addition, which was not in the quote, they power washed my sidewalk in the backyard, and a hexagon cement platform. They filled in the entire backyard with the exact gravel I requested and leveled it to a perfect height. I love it! Shane, Shannon, Deuce and Kona were always so easy to talk with, I could ask any of them a question. The entire crew was diligent and committed. They were constantly working to get the job completed efficiently. The truck which hauled the gravel was parked in my assigned stall (where they were told to park). A tarp was laid to catch any falling gravel, but still gravel went astray. I witnessed the crew sweep up and carry away any gravel left in the stall. They left it cleaner than when they arrived! Shane and crew all have a great work ethic, something that’s rare these days. I’m so delighted that I decided to work with them and will definitely do so again should I need to. They have an extensive range of services which seems endless. Shane and his entire DC Services crew were very appreciative for the opportunity to do business with me, but I was more impressed and delighted to have them create my peaceful backyard space again. They delivered above and beyond their quote and the best part about it was they were happy to do it! I love the fact that they take pride in what they do, and they do it exceptionally well. In the future, if I or anyone I know need services they provide, I’ll surely highly recommend them with no hesitation. Reaching Shane is easy and quick when you need to get a hold him, he will respond quickly to your messages and phone calls. Shane is easy to talk to, easy to reach, easy to work with, and he and his crew provide excellent services from a free quote to the flawless finished outcome. I have peace of mind again, thanks to Shane, Shannon, Deuce and Kona! Exceptional service!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Kahuku, HI

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.
