"I used TruBuilt for 2 projects now and they are THE deck company! First, the quoting process was so simple. I called and they showed up, promptly. They listened to what I wanted, what my vision was, what my budget was, what my concerns were. Then we scheduled to start the project and it was smooth sailing. The team came out they did the work quickly. Kept me in the loop at all times. And within a couple days the deck was complete and the gutters were replaced! Let the pictures speak for themselves of how big the project was and how it looks. I absolutely love their craftsmanship! Recommend them to everyone!"

"Inadequate footing was poured for the 2 main posts. I requested a 3 post and told it was adequate. Within weeks one of the 2 posts buckled. It was repaired and a 3rd post added. The added 3rd post also had inadequate footing. The entire deck began to sag. The last day they were here they left tools in the yard and never returned. THEN I hired another contracted who had to lift the entire deck up with a series of jacks. The old footings barely were deeper than ground level (on a slope). New footings were poured and main posts were all re-aligned. Numerous lag bots were added. Hurricane ties were used to keep the roof from lifting in strong winds. Three posts were added where the deck was anchored to the side of the house. Two more posts were added at the exterior stairway and on the opposite side of the deck to prevent sway. A Double stringer was used to reinforce for sagging down the underside of the middle of the deck. If not for the work by the 2nd contractor I believe the deck would have shifted and collapsed."

"We paid a previous contractor to put in a retaining wall, fence and level our backyard, which was a 5 foot steep hill at the time. After the old contractor put up a nearly finished fence, 6 months later it was left incomplete and rotting. We hired the Lake Man and his crew to fix the mess that was left behind. In 1 days time not only did we have a retaining wall and cleaned up fence, but he laid fresh top soil for grass, trimmed our trees, cleaned up our garden area, prepped our driver way for paving and to top it all off weed ate around the property! I highly recommend this crew of real life Superheroes!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Stover, MO

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.
