"We highly recommend Brian O'Neill. He replaced a rotting deck for us. He showed up when he said he would, he stayed on the job to the finish and stayed within our very tight budget. He is hard working and very honest. Very good workmanship too. We will definitely hire him again for the rest of the deck. Patt MB, Los Gatos, CA Project: Replace old deck"

"Our large deck was sorely neglected - no maintenance in at least 8 years - and I worried it was beyond help or would be cost-prohibitive to rehabilitate. Rupert and Michael breathed new life into it! Rupert (company principle) is very responsive, and he was able to give a quick informal estimate based on some photos and I texted. This made it very easy to start working together right away. Now the deck looks beautiful, and they were able to stain our wooden deck furniture to match. Great makeover for our deck and lovely folks to work with!"

"I am writing this review on behalf of Javier Flores I engaged Javier Flores to build a deck in my back yard. I could not be happier with the job he did. Javier and his brother Daniel arrived promptly at 8:00 a.m. each day and worked hard all day, with the exception of lunch. The two of them work together very well. When they finished the deck, I told them that I would sweep off the saw dust, but Javier wouldn’t let me sweep the deck, He told me I am paying him to perform that duty. Javier and Daniel are experienced hardworking men who value precision, and pay attention to the littlest of details. Our new deck is as stiff as concrete, no sags, no squeaks at all. I am so happy with the deck, that I am going to have them install the deck railing also. I would gladly recommend Javier to anyone that needs a deck. Henry & Mary Anne Price"

"7. Our insurance company recently sent us a notice saying the roof needed to be replaced or they wouldn?t renew the policy. Max from Imperia Roofing came out to inspect it and confirmed the roof had definitely reached the end of its life. He explained the replacement process clearly and helped us move quickly so we could satisfy the insurance requirement. The crew did a great job and the new roof looks fantastic."

"Mr. Nguyen was the ideal worker he would text me before he would arrive. He would tell me my estimate he picked up all of the paint parts that he needed. He came to my place and he worked and I didn’t have to follow him around or keep an eye on him And he was always very professional. I would agree to hire Mr. Nguyen again."

"We hired Trimble Construction and Custom Painting for many projects. The first job was the kitchen renovation which was done exactly as we wanted. We have since had them take care of the horrible ceiling cracks in our living room and vestibule and paint both rooms. They also installed handrails on the staircase to the upper level. In the backyard they replaced the deck and a 80ft long wooden walkway. All the work has been completed within the agreed costs and are a pleasure to look at. The finished improvements and workmanship make our house more comfortable and welcoming. "

"I recently had my deck and porch completed by Geico Builders, and I couldn't be happier! Watching the team build everything from scratch was incredible. My project manager kept me updated throughout the process, assuring me that everything was under control. The workers were not only skilled but also consistently on time, which I really appreciated. They did a fantastic job enhancing my property, and I highly recommend them. If I ever decide to undertake another project, I won't hesitate to choose Geico Builders again!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Menlo Park, CA

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.
