"Edward Ryan worked with us every step of the way... he helped us get the designs and permits and did a large amount of the work himself. He has a great work ethic and kept everything moving forward. The subcontractors he did use were very professional. They did such a great job that you would have a hard time figuring out where the addition was put on if you didn't know where to look. I fully intend to use him again for home renovations we have planned."

"Excellent!! In my newly purchased home, I wanted the color in the master bedroom changed. The existing paint job was excellent - I just wanted a different color (from blue to gray). When I showed Matt my choices he made a suggestion (a warmer gray as opposed to a cooler gray for the bedroom). I am so glad I followed his advice. Matt arrived on time with all tools and materials. He removed wall plates and covered trim. He asked me to look after the first coat to make sure he was doing what I wanted. Then, when finished - it was so beautiful! The color turned out to be perfect and completely covered the old color. The job was spotless in that there were no skipped spaces and no disturbance to the already perfectly done trim and closet door (which were white). Matt is so professional and also so personable. He is a dream to work with!!

"It went absolutely amazing. We are remodeling our home, and Paver Concepts by far has been the easiest most professional company we have worked with. Their attention to detail and craftsmanship is second to none. We couldn't be happier with our new back yard. We would highly recommend them to anyone that needs any of the services the provide.  We have already recommended them to a few friends who also have had the same experience. 5 star company for sure."

"We had a coupon through our daughter for them.  They would have probably initially charged $6000.00 or $7000.00, but we had a nice coupon.  She saw their sign when she was riding.  She asked some of her co-workers about Eicher's and she heard that they were very good and that they had a good product.  We got life time shingles called weather watch instead of felt.  We were really pleased with it.  They did the job.  They had quite a few guys out there.  I think they did really well.  I did get other estimates and until the coupon came up I was about to say no to them because their price was more.  The guy told me about the product and the change in what they do and what normal roofers were doing.  We had had our roof done years before and my husband wasn't too pleased with it.  He was sitting and listening for everything that he had problems with to see if they would address them.  He was really impressed with a new material called weather watch and another kind of weatherstrip.  They did a little extra from what the regular roofers would put with just the felt and then the shingles.  They replaced some of the decking and they put the new material which has the shingles lying flatter so you didn't have to worry about water getting in and causing problems.  My husband knows a lot about roofing because he did a lot of stuff like that.  He has gotten to the age where he couldn't deal with the heat up there so we wanted to get someone to do it.  I asked other people too and they said they had heard about Eicher's.  It's a family owned company.  They came out and they did a great job.  We are pleased with it.  They came in the time they said they were coming.  I would recommend them to a friend or a neighbor.  My husband sat up there with them and said that they did good work.  The company knew that he was looking.  The owner said they appreciated that and that my husband now knew what they went through in a run of the day.  My husband wanted to make sure he watched and make sure that they moved the decking like they were supposed to and not covered it up like the company did before.  The guys did a really good job.  We didn't have any problems with them.  They all were very nice.  They cleaned up around very well."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in South Bay, 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.
