"We hired Malcolm to do our restaurant tenant development from scratch. He did a wide range of jobs, from concrete, framing, drywalls, to painting, carpentry, etc. This guy is a kind of perfectionist. You don't need to keep your eyes on him all the time. You can just tell him what you want, and show him a picture if you cannot describe what you want exactly, He can deliver that. I took many pictures of his work. If you would like to see, I am glad to show you. Those frames he did were very beautiful. He aligned every line and made every corner and connection tight. Also, he always thinks in our shoes to help you save money. He gave us lots of good suggestions and took advantage of some wasted materials. We worked with him for about three months, and witnessed that he built the restaurant up. If there is one thing I would complain, I would say that he probably have higher standards than people who hired him. So, if you want to assist him in his work, make sure that you can do as good as he does. Or ask him how you can do that better, he is willing to show you the way."

"The categories were too narrow! These guys did it all. They enclosed my garage, built a small porch and stairs from the garage to the outdoors, put in a rock wall, leveled the back yard and installed a patio. They were fast and professional, and excellent problem solvers. I would recommend them to anyone. I intend to hire them for a few more projects as well."

"Hagen did an AWESOME job replacing the deck. I requested four quotes, and Hagen was the first to respond by calling me and stopping by that afternoon. He provided a quote that night and was able to fit me in for the upcoming weekend, given that our timeline was very short. He demolished the deck, hauled everything away, leaving the area clean. He then framed the deck and on Day 2, finished it - just as he promised. It looks so good and several neighbors have said the same. Highly recommend Hagen at Rugged General Contracting, LLC. Best price, quality workmanship."

"This pro contacted me right away, willing to make an appt to come assess the work. We were unsure if we could complete the work ourselves, yet it ended up that we WERE able to do so. Based on his prompt reply, I would've moved forward with at least a bid had we been unable to build the deck. Thank you."

"Jeremy and his crew were super easy and great to work with from start to finish! We had them do a couple little extra related projects that they've never done before on top of building our new deck and patio. Everything looks great! I would highly recommend them and I would definitely hire them again!"

"We absolutely LOVED working with ZBolt! Zac was fantastic!!!! He communicated very well. He was on time or contacted us if he was running a few minutes behind. His workmanship was outstanding and his bid was reasonable. He was available to do the work within a few days which is rare these days. He went above and beyond to ensure we were pleased with his services. We are SO happy with our new deck. We highly recommend him! THANKS Zac!!!!!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Salem, UT

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.
