"Where do I even start with Homecraft Builders?! They are AMAZING and I do not use that word lightly. From my first interaction with owner Marc, I knew I found the team to make our home renovation dreams a reality. Marc is kind, responsive, professional, and fair. Just when I thought I couldn’t be more impressed, I met the team. Rodney and Joe are true artists and take their work so seriously. Seeing our dream porch come to life day by day was such an exciting process. We loved seeing the builders come every day. The whole team is so kind, pleasant, extremely skilled, and excited about their work. They quickly became people we were so excited to see and talk to every morning. I cannot thank Homecraft builders enough for making our dreams a reality and for treating us like family the whole time. For any home projects, trust me, look no further than Homecraft. A huge thank you to Marc, Rodney, and Joe for everything they have done for us. We miss you guys already! "

"Karel Straka has helped me on and off with construction items on my townhouse for almost twenty years, making major changes to my deck and patio among other things. I find him easy to work with, very thorough, trusty-worthy, reliable and affordable. Sometimes I submit my own design, and he always does it better."

"From the start to finish, we were very pleased. When Custom Home Creations Partner Garrett arrived, we were impressed with his thorough assessment of what work was needed and what we wanted done. His proposal was right on point with what we expected. The construction team arrived on time, were professional and they efficiently completed the project within the time frame we were quoted. We now have a beautiful, safe and secure pressure-treated wood deck and stairs and we look forward to staining it in early Spring. Here's our "Before and After" photos! We would definitely hire and recommend Custom Home Creations for future projects!"

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Woodbine, MD

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.
