"I chose Mandi to replace the floor and railings of my 2nd floor deck. He went over every aspect of the job with me before starting and provided a very fair estimate. Mandi even painted the exposed support posts and beam to match the color of the Trex. We will be using MGC for future work."

"We had wanted to add a deck to our home for years. We finally were in a place to do it this year. We chose Deck Guardian and we couldn’t be happier. Every step of the process was painless, and the staff we dealt with were amazing. The first person we dealt with, Ian, came preppy and made suggestions for what our deck could look like. He thoroughly explained the process. Once all the permits had been received, building began and we were so blessed to have Roberto and Antonio as our builders. Their work was impeccable. The result was we have a deck that was entirely worth the wait. It is beautiful, solidly built, and the envy of our neighbors. In short, we couldn’t be happier or recommend Deck Guardian highly enough."

"It went as smooth as possible. Mr. Handyman and Ron Potesky's team turned an attic into a bedroom with A/C and heat, built a closet, replaced major kitchen appliances, replaced carpeting, replaced all smoke and CO2 detectors, re-wired ceiling fans, painted all interior walls, powewashed the deck and vinyl fence, then painted the deck, removed and donated or disposed of all furniture and personal items of the tenant. The team coordinated all appointments of city inspectors and professional sanitization of a very dirty space. When Mr Handyman was done, the intetior of the house looked like something out of Better Homes and Gardens! The team could be totally trusted with the housekeys. They coordinated with the realtor and the house sold in one week end!!! I highly recommend the integrity, workmanship and reliability of Mr. Handyman now located in Springfield, New Jersey, and i would hire them again in a heartbeat!!!"

"Start to finish Don and the guys at D&S did a quality professional job. From demolition to install to cleanup we were impressed with the quality of the work. But more importantly we're happy with the new look of our landscaping in the front of the house"

"We hired John at American Home Remodeling, Inc., to renovate our first floor bathroom. My wife and I were finally ready to pull the plug on a renovation but were nervous with the process. John made it easy, and made sure to go over every fine detail as well as assure us of the proper building permits that were going to be issued by their expeditor with the township. The job went smooth from the beginning to the end. Since we had a great experience with John and his team, we started to get quotes on our deck which was in dire need of replacement. We ended up signing with American Home Remodeling for our deck replacement, and could not have been happier to do so. We finally get to enjoy our deck for the remainder of the spring and also for the summer. Thank you John for a job well done."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Raritan, NJ

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.
