"When we decided to add a front porch to our home, Yann got back to us right away and met with us to go over every detail. He was prompt, transparent, and very fair with his pricing. The communication throughout the entire project was excellent. Yann is a true pro with great suggestions and a sharp eye for design. Once construction began, his team worked incredibly hard. They were respectful, skilled, and cleaned up at the end of each day. We were genuinely amazed when they continued to show up and work through rain, snow, and freezing temperatures. The finished porch is absolutely stunning! It completely transformed the look of our home, and we couldn’t be happier. Pro Warrior Painting & Construction exceeded our expectations, and we will absolutely be working with Yann and his crew again on future home improvements. Highly recommend!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Garrett and Saul were professional, timely, and had excellent attention to detail. Our front porch was in bad shape. GB's Frame-up and Carpentry replaced everything - safely retaining the roof over the space, leaving not even a single nail in our driveway/front walkway, and communicating effectively for the length of the job. Garrett was easy to reach if we had any concerns. The porch looks exactly as my wife imagined and we will call his company with any future projects on our home. Thank you for the friendly, transparent communication and polished work!"

"Sonny built two different decks for us at two different houses the last couple of decades. For both projects, he was exceptional! Great attention to detail, punctual, fantastic communication skills and a great sense of humor. I would recommend Sonny to anyone looking for a new deck, deck repair, or other projects. "

"My wife and I received 5 bids for our deck refinishing project. We asked for a detailed statement of work, and Costas provided us with a thorough and comprehensive list, and he won our business. He is professional, prompt, readily reachable, practical, and knowledgeable. We value his advice. He has a good team, and the work was completed on schedule, and the attention and care to detail is exemplary. We are 100% satisfied with the result, and will work with True North again."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Wells, ME

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.
