"They replaced the fourteen sections of my failing pressure-treated wood railings on my older deck with a new "Trex Select Deck Railing" system. In spite of some of the main supporting 4x4s having taken a slight twist over the years, all of the new joints were precision cut such that each joint is less than paper-thin. They also custom made matching stair rails for my totally non-standard steps. They were honest and straightforward to deal with, and always showed up on time. I highly recommend them."

"I want to thank Wolfe and Sons Construction from the bottom of my heart for all the fantastic work they've done for me and my family. Mister Wolfe was extremely knowledgeable of all aspects of his trade. His history of experience made it easy to decide they were the company for me. They installed a TPO roof (White unlike the original black) on my garage. He knows I am on kind of a tight budget and worked with me every step of the way to save me money and kept me involved throughout the whole process. I've never worked with someone more accommodating and kind. I would definitely refer them to anyone looking to get anything remodeled or fixed on their home or business. I will absolutely be having them do more work for me in the future. Thank you again, my family and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Meshoppen, PA

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.
