"Don did a great job designing and building my custom deck in a very difficult site. The stainless steel cable railing with top rail and lighting system is awesome. Highly recommend Don and his professional team. If you want quality and workmanship call Don. I did and cannot be happier."

"Project involved resodding large portion of front yard w/ St Augustine grass, replacing all plants/weeds & etc, in 1 large & 2 small front yard's landscape beds, repair irrigation system (broken pipe & heads) & install new rain sensor, take down dead elm tree in backyard, trim existing shrubs & mulch around them (front & back yard), & remove 2 tall loropetalum shrubs (replace with sod). Plus pressure wash whole house, driveway, sidewalks & clean pine needles out of gutters & haul away all debris. They sprayed all front lawn to be replaced & landscape beds to kill all weeds/plants a week prior to replanting beds & sod, then took only 1 1/2 days to finish job. George Smith (owner) very knowledgeable, friendly & professional. The crew sent to complete work were very experienced, hardworking & Pedro (headed crew) patient w/ all my questions & concerns. All work exceeded my expectations & was surprised that pressure washing included all of my white vinyl fencing in front & back yards."

"We built our home some 40 years ago. We had All In Builders Construction Corporation come in and renovate two separate buildings. In an old work space above a 3-car garage they installed an apartment including a living room, bed room, kitchen, bath room and closet. In the second building they renovated two rooms into living areas. In both buildings, the results were essentially PERFECT, beautiful in every detail from the stucco and painting, the trim work, door installations, addition of a split AC system, wiring, and plumbing. The workers were actually craftsmen and gentlemen. My wife and I have been around construction all of our lives and have witnessed the horrors of fighting builders and their subs. We recommend All In Builders Construction Corporation completely without any reservations. I’m happy to talk with anyone about their work and how comfortable and pleasant it to work with them. They brought the entire project in for an amount we considered reasonable. "

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Saint Augustine, FL

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.
