"Professional, experienced, trustworthy, insured, and produced quality work. We are so happy to have chosen this company to build our deck. They measured often to insure that everything stayed in alignment . We used a composite decking so no future maintenance will be required. When they had a question they spoke directly with us. All our neighbors like the look too. Definitely a wonderful addition to our property."

"Mike is a very hard and conscientious worker. He cares about the quality of his work and the satisfaction of his customers. My porch/deck project took place in freezing, snow, rain and sleeting weather but Mike showed up everyday to get the work done on time and within budget. My neighbors love the job and his work ethic as well. I will definitely use him again on my future home projects."

"We loved working with this family team. We had new flooring, painting and baseboards/trim replaced and repainted in our entry, kitchen, living, dining and laundry room. The team worked hard to meet our expectations, needs and wants. We are very happy with the outcome of this project. The rooms look good and the flooring looks great. We look forward to working with them again on our next project."

"It went well. He was quick and did a successful repair. I don’t have any idea what the going rate for that kind of work but I felt it was a bit high for only 15 or 20 minutes and only two screws were added. I will call him again if I need any other work done."

"The plan was to build a fence, and I needed a quote from several contractors. Out of the 4 contractors I dealt with, Wilkins provided clear communication, showed up on time to their appointment, provided a detailed estimate, the price was fair and Marty was incredibly professional and courteous. I didn't go with Wilkins because my neighbor is a contractor and wants to build the fence for cost of materials. Had this not been the case, I would have hired Wilkins Family construction to build the fence."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Salem, OR

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.
