"The crew came to the house and modified their way of working to accommodate the tight work space. They were friendly and went above what they had to do by saving my flowers out of my flower bed before they began digging out the space. They answered my questions and explained how things were going. The company owner often checked in by phone and in person to communicate with me regarding the job."

"Bob was very responsive from the time I reached out. He came to look at the project I wanted done and gave me a timely estimate. He was also very easy to communicate with regarding the items I wanted. He arrived promptly both days of my renovation and involved me in any decisions during the renovation. He did a great job with my small bathroom and making my ideas about how to create more space come to life. I would use him again for any future renovations! (Picture is before repaint)"

"Daniel, Pop and the crew of fellas he has did such a great job on replacing my old roof with a beautiful metal roof. He was truly a blessing...in every way. Called me right back, came to give me a quote which he literally gave me the same day. VERY VERY REASONABLE AND CAME IN 4K LESS than my highest quote. That is going above and beyond as far as I'm concerned. From the material delivery driver right up to the work trailer driver these men are top notch. He even worked around my trees and gardens in my small yard and never hurt a single tomato or pepper. Wow. I was truly amazed. And the cleanup..the cleanup...was better than I imagined. Trust me.. I looked for anything left behind and there was not a single thing. That's integrity right there. Please don't hesitate to hire Gap Roofing and Construction for any of your needs. You won't be sorry for a second. My only wish was that I had more work for them. Not many people I'd say that about either. Thank you Daniel and team for ALL YOU DO.."

"Keith did a large, heavily overgrown land clearing job for me. He was easy to work with, kept me advised at all times regarding start up, progress, issues, etc. His work was excellent, very professional. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants a job done, and done right."

"I have hired WHL for two jobs, and had an excellent experience both times. The transparency of the process--from the estimate to the build to the cleanup---is most impressive. The crew explains, answers questions, allows choices, and still gets the job done on or ahead of schedule."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Montoursville, 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.
