"After meeting with a few contractors, we went with Unique Home Design and Remodeling because Ofir just gave off a different vibe—no sales pressure, just honest insight and clear experience. Our kitchen was outdated and awkwardly laid out, and I didn’t think much could be done with it. But Ofir helped us reimagine the entire space and now it feels like we doubled the size. Every phase was handled with care. From demo to final install, the team showed up when they said they would and got things done. I work from home and was worried about the noise and disruption, but they kept everything surprisingly low-key. The attention to detail is next level—our drawer pulls even line up perfectly! I'd absolutely work with them again!"

Decks or porches FAQs
Pressure-treated wood decks typically last between 15 and 25 years with proper maintenance. Factors influencing longevity include local weather conditions, maintenance frequency, wood quality, and usage patterns. Regular sealing provides critical moisture protection, while prompt repairs prevent small issues from causing structural problems. Without proper care, even quality pressure-treated lumber may deteriorate significantly faster.
Most localities require building permits for deck construction, particularly for structures attached to your home or elevated above a certain height. Permit requirements vary significantly between jurisdictions, with costs typically ranging from $50 to $250. Skipping required permits may result in fines, forced removal, or complications when selling your property. Always check with your local building department before beginning construction.
While deck construction occurs year-round in many regions, late spring through early fall typically offers optimal building conditions. However, scheduling during off-peak seasons (late fall or winter) often secures better contractor availability and potentially lower rates. Weather considerations include avoiding periods of excessive rain or freezing temperatures that could complicate concrete work or wood installation.
Newly installed pressure-treated lumber requires a drying period before accepting stain or sealer properly. This waiting period typically ranges from four weeks to three months depending on your climate and the wood's initial moisture content. Testing readiness by sprinkling water on the surface helps determine when the wood will accept treatment—if water beads up, continue waiting; if it absorbs quickly, the deck is ready for staining.
