"If you need a deck, POM is fantastic. Elliot will come and give your quote. Finally a contractor who really cares and checks the job almost daily. Very fair pricing and he will cover every detail. Billy and Dave, my builders were incredible. Rose in their office is wonderful on the phone. My 16 x 20 has got many "wows" already. POM WILL be doing future projects for me."

"Norm, his sons and crew did a fantastic job on out front porch. Before this was a contemporary home and now has that added farmhouse feel. The quality is excellent and has completely changed the the neighborhood. We could not be more pleased and would highly recommend them for any deck or porch needs you may have. Getting ready for the neighborhood porch parties this summer. Thank you LVMC decks!"

"All the guys that were on the ZVL contracting team were awesome! Very polite and were great!! They did a great job replacing the entire front porch and ceiling below the porch. This was done to a classic "Upside Down House" that is very old. They used pressure treated water resistant wood. I could go on and on with the great remarks but to make it simple give them a call and you wont be sorry!!! Here are before and after. We haven't put the light cherry stain on it yet, that will wait till after winter."

"I needed the steps to my front porch replaced. Sam quoted the job on a Saturday and assured me it would be done by the end of the following week. It was late November and the weather didn't cooperate but by Friday, the job was completed as promised. They did a great job and I am very satisfied with the new front steps."

"After searching for someone to speak to about a new house construction process, Joe spent an hour going over the building process and talking me through the overall project. He pointed out areas where typically people will be taken advantage of and gave an honest perspective on the project process. If you are considering a home building project you should absolutely talk with Joe/Aleta as he will give you truly honest feedback and help set expectations. I will never hesitate to speak to Joe about future projects moving forward as he is a great resource and reliable person."

"All went well. The demolition of the old porch went well. The construction of the two car garage also went well. Coordination with the other members of the team (masonry, electrician) went well and was timed well.  Project was on time and completed on time.  All workers worked well and displayed a high level of skill for their trade.
After the job was completed I received very favorable comments from neighbors about the finished product.

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Tobyhanna, PA

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.
