"Jeremiah and team did a terrific job on our new hot tub deck. The project was complex as it needed to be built on the slope, tie into the house, and support a large hot tub with gazebo. Jeremiah listened well and contributed helpful ideas to make the overall design better. The price was very competitive, with documented bids and invoices. The construction team showed up on time and cleaned up after themselves daily. We liked them so much that we hired them for another job right after. I would recommend hiring Jeremiah and his team. "

"We wanted our back patio extended and it was a small project that other companies didn't want to take on. Matt fit us into his busy schedule and did an excellent job! He did it in a timely manner, was very professional and kept us informed. We would absolutely use him again for any future projects and recommend him to anyone!"

"Met with Jerry and got an estimate (which I thought was very fair) and timeline for starting. Communications & updates for his arrival to the project were A+. Job finished in a very timely manner and final price was lower than quote. He is now my "Go To" guy for carpentry/wood working needs. "

"Do not expect these guys to stand by their work. They did a room renovation for me that included a dormer style window. Two years after they finished, the paint on the outside trim of the window started to warp and come off in large pieces. Exterior paint should not fail that fast so I contacted them about it. They initially would not stand by it and then would not address it in a timely manner so I had to pay another guy to fix a 40+K job for $300. Their reasoning was they did not make the paint or the wood. No kidding, but they were the lead contractor. The guy who fixed their work showed me where they did not properly prep the wood for painting and used wood filler where other materials would have been better. They even painted over a sticker that was on the wood versus removing the sticker!? Poor craftsmanship and poor oversite. The guy who fixed it said it was the worst window trim job he had seen in 25 years of doing work. Buyer beware."

"The crew and Jonathan, the general manager, did an amazing job! The patio is now much easier to reach, enhancing the backyard’s appearance. Their prices are extremely competitive and the transparency of the quote were the main reason why I chose them for this project. Jonathan was flexible with all the changes and adjustments we had during the project. Communication throughout this process was excellent as well. Highly recommend their services even if it’s just for a free quote."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Huntsville, AL

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.
