Customers say: Quick response

"They are definitely the professionals in pool installation. Taking out the fact that we had weather to deal with, they had to regrade the area, and missing parts from the manufacturer, once everything had settled down, they had the pool up and running in a day! Thanks so much for making this happen and we are going to get to enjoy the pool for the 4th! Thanks!!!"

"A tree fell on our home and destroyed the roof in late June of 2025. Tommy with Southern Design Homes got to work as soon as he was cleared to do so and had my home repaired and in better condition than it was to begin with within the first 2 days of July! Very kind service and great people. Will without question be using SDH services in the future! "

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Page Legacy Construction on an outdoor renovation project, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. The scope of the job included windows, a handicap ramp, soffit and fascia work, painting, crawl space vents, and custom crawl space doors. From start to finish, John and his team demonstrated top-notch professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. John's communication throughout the entire process was excellent. He kept me informed every step of the way and made sure all my questions were answered promptly and thoroughly. I’m admittedly hard to please when it comes to home improvement, but this crew exceeded my expectations. The final result speaks for itself—clean, precise work that added real value and curb appeal to our community center. It’s rare to find a contractor that combines quality work with a genuine care for customer satisfaction. Working with Page Legacy Construction was truly a pleasure, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality craftsmanship. Thank you again, John and crew!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Travelers Rest, SC

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.
