"Extrnely professional and easy to work with. I even trusted the company enough to conduct the work while out of town. They did not dissapoint or take advantage of this trust but remained detail oriented, even when they could have cut corners without me knowing. True honesty. Cleaned up my entire yard which had overgrown and died, in addition to installing new plants to replace the old."

"Jeff is an amazing professional. This is the second time Jeff has worked to repair parts of my front walkway after a winter thaw and before Easter, when all of my relatives would be over for the Holy Day and would be taking pictures in the front. Jeff worked diligently to find the stone pavers that would work with the dimensions of my front walk. He repaired 2 collapsed steps and replaced pavers that had cracks in them. Jeff makes sure everything looks good and will last. Jeff took all of the crumbled stone pieces with him, so I didn't have to worry about any of the clean up. I know that if I need another project with my walk or outdoors, I'm calling Jeff again."

"George offered a great design solution (i.e., framing the deck with a darker color). During the course of the project, we made some design changes to allow for a larger deck and better placement for the stairs. George willingly accommodated these changes and offered excellent ideas for improving these changes. Overall, the deck construction is solid and the finished product is beautiful."

"I am beyond thrilled with my new front porch. I am a very particular person and the entire crew kept me involved in the building process each step of the way. I was able to determine exactly how I wanted the porch to look down to the inch. No one made me feel as if I was difficult or hard to please. Instead, they confirmed to me over and over that their job was to make me happy."

"I am so glad we got the pergola installed. It keeps the heat off the deck to the point where I know we have saved on our electric bill because we did not have to run the air conditioner so much."

"He installed my storm door. Pointed out that the floor sweep that came in the box was not cut or notched like it should have been and I contacted Lowe's to start getting a replacement part. He was a little slow to respond to texts so calling is best. Door seems great so far!"

"The bathroom looks great. I am completely satisfied with the work done ! Richard was great to work with. He did everything within his power to make sure everything was done the way that we wanted it and in a timely manner. He was always on time and there was never a time that he didn't answer an email or a phone call. Richard was excellent at respecting the home and cleaning up as he went along. Remember everyone the project is only part of the whole picture, the contractor you hire is very important as well. I cannot say enough positive things about the work done and about Richard, it was worth every cent. Thank you EDL Industries !!!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Penn Hills, 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.
