"Hired Andrew to replace portions of our cedar fence in the backyard. He showed up promptly to see what was needed and gave us an estimate to do the work. The work was scheduled and completed within two weeks from our original phone call. He and his team did an excellent job. They were reliable, friendly, knowledgeable, pleasant to deal with and made sure we were satisfied. We even asked him to do some electrical work inside at the same time. He was very accomodating and someone that we will definitely use again for future projects and will highly recommend to others."

"I needed the floor of my deck replaced. It is beautiful and the work was done efficiently and within my budget. I also had a flower bed replaced with decorative rocks that turned out better than I expected. I have also had some landscaping done. I would highly recommend Josh's work."

"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."

"We hired Jeff to demo our existing large, walk-in shower (including tile, walls and floor) and replace with all new materials and tile. He was methodical during demo and reconstruction, and kept all areas free of debris. The tile design we chose was intricate, and he approached the job with confidence and precision. Jeff was a great communicator and maintained a set schedule. We couldn't be happier with the result! The design is exactly what we'd envisioned, and we absolutely love our new shower. We highly recommend Jeff and look forward to working with him again someday."

"Krain Construction did an awesome job putting a deck on our cottage. Brain and the whole crew were great to work with. They were very friendly and made a deck that was just what we ordered. The work was done on time as promised and to a high level of workmanship. I will be asking Krain Construction to do more work in the future...highly recommended!!!"

"Tito and his crew replaced the railings and posts on our old front porch and repaired the roof. The job was completed earlier than expected and without any problems.

"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."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Pittsburgh, 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.
