"Built to Last Construction was recommended to me by a friend who had them remodel her kitchen. First I hired them to paint a steep stairway to the upstairs, along with the upstairs landing (built their own scaffolding) and install railings. Their work was very professional and I can't belief how good it looks! Next I had them completely remodeled the bathroom in coordination with a plumber and electrician. Tom and his wife Ann went shopping with me for bathroom fixtures but because the bathroom is so small nothing seemed like it was going to work out. Tom actually ended up building a linen cabinet, sink base and medicine cabinet with a lighted mirror to fit. The quality of the wood and workmanship is outstanding! I am also hiring them for other projects. They are always very thorough and kept me informed on all aspects of the projects. I recommended them to a friend who has had a hard time finding someone to update her deck. She will not be disappointed."

"We first had our back deck replaced and were so happy with the results that a year later we signed up to have them replace our front porch. Even though it was snowy and cold out the crew did a great job. We would highly recommend using GreenShield the whole process went very smoothly. We love our deck and porch."

"This company did an excellent job from start to finish. I was initially presented with a variety of plans. The presentation of those plans was very thorough and complete. Everything was very straightforward and relatively easy to understand. This really facilitated the decision-making process. Once the project was underway, the deck was worked on more or less continuously, until it was fully completed. I truly appreciate it how the worker stayed focused day after day and completed this project in a very timely fashion. Additionally, I also greatly appreciated the attention to detail and the high-quality workmanship. It should also be mentioned that the materials used were also of superior quality. This deck should last anywhere from 25 to 30 years based on the materials utilize for construction. Another significant bonus to this project was working with the staff. They were genuinely nice, friendly, professional, and highly competent. All in all, this is a very rewarding experience!"

"After getting several quotes and speaking with each of the business owners regarding my Deck renovation, I decided to go with Shane and Alsup Construction because he came highly recommended. All I can say is that the value add was completely worth it. I didn't hire him because he was the cheapest quote, but in the end... he ended up making recommendations that did save me a lot of money in the process. His crew was awesome!! Very courteous and defiantly cleaned up when they were done. everything was done in a timely manner, and he followed up to make sure everything was right. I actually have more work for Alsup this winter... Thanks again fellas!!! Job well done."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Rochester, MI

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.
