"Smoky Mountain Deck Builders was the middle of three estimates in cost. We found them to be very professional and thorough throughout the job. Jeremy, the foreman during the entire construction, ran a tight ship, maintained an orderly job site, and found and corrected all problems. I would give him the highest possible rating."

"Eric was great to work with, start to finish. He understood our wants and needs, offered his advice on how to accomplish the project, and delivered what he said he would. The deck came out better than expected, on budget, and no worries or issues. I would definitely recommend Durfee Construction for your next project."

"I am very pleased with the outcome of the porch but I did have to spend a lot of time communicating with the crews myself during the job. Mr. Jones does not perform the contract work himself but instead he has different crews come in and work on their own specialties and they communicate with Mr. Jones via smartphone. When one crew ends, he sends out the next crew. The contractors that came in to do their own work were graded an A. Their skills were way better than I expected and they were very cordial. The contractors he used for my job were excellent. It was stated that all of their work is done to code but I can't stress enough, PAY THE $170 FOR A BUILDING PERMIT. I was told a permit may cause a delay because when Mr. Jones requests an inspection at certain stages of the build it takes a week at the most for the inspector to arrive. Those delays were minimal. Since mine was a permit job I was also told that if mine was waiting on an inspection he would send the crew to another non-permit job while we waited. They didn't come back when my job was ready to move on so that is where some of my delays came. My porch took 6 weeks to complete but it was started at the beginning of December and finished mid-January so we had two Holidays to work around and some days the weather caused delays but those were minimal. Since the job is not overseen onsite it was up to me to constantly bring up areas that needed addressing and I had to stay on top of that communication. Mr. Jones was always pleasant but there should have been more site visits to make sure the crews completely finished their stage of the build since this is not my area of expertise. But again, having an experienced inspector helped to keep the build to code. I have to say I was at fault by NOT discussing the exact type of door to install. He had a basic door that he uses but it was worth me paying the difference to get a better door. Remember, YOU are the one having the work done by a contractor so certain decisions need to be made by YOU for your own comfort level. You need to inspect every job by any contractor as it progresses because if it gets too far along and something isn't quite right, you may not be able to easily go back and make changes if things get "layered". Some areas to control from the beginning on this job: get a building permit, discuss the exact door you want, discuss the color of gutters, discuss the swing of the door (in/out, right/left). Mr. Jones was trustworthy and said if I had any issues in the future he would come back and address them, and I do believe him."

"E&D did an excellent job of assembling an island for our walk in closet. The job was considerably more complex than they anticipated. It took five hours to complete but they honored their $150 quote without hesitation. I recommend them highly!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Knoxville, TN

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.
