Deck or porch build or replacers in Cedar Rapids
Not your everyday carpenter...I've made most of my living as a professional archer amassing everything from world titles to Olympic medals, and working alongside some of the best in the construction industry in both exterior and interior work. What does that have to do with construction? Everything! The dedication to pursue excellence and the required discipline I developed in my sport, combined with the side hustle of construction work most of my adult life, has developed into a full time business, where I take great pride in both my work and my customers satisfaction level at the completion of each job. Working on homes is what I love to do, but my passion is in customer service, knowing I've exceeded client expectations.
"We needed our deck replaced. Rod came over the day we called to look things over and gave us estimates shortly after. He was upfront about his other obligations and how deck building was something he enjoyed, but sometimes other work came first. He would primarily work on it on weekends and some evenings which was fine by us. The finished product was definitely worth any extra time. Rod is a perfectionist and it shows. The deck is so beautiful. The wood is smooth under my feet. The steps are solid. We are very pleased and plan to have Rod work on another project for us next fall. Two thumbs up, 10/10, 5 stars. "

"I had Kyle come out for an estimate for a new black column and black railing the beginning of April. His price was very affordable and he listened to all my questions and concerns. He sent the estimate and ordered the materials. The column I wanted was on back order until the end of May. He communicated throughout the waiting process and when the order came in we set a date for the work to start. He estimated it would take a day maybe two if they ran into any problems with the house being older and work started this morning. Kyle worked with Hunter from Caves to install the column and railing since it definitely was not a one person job. They completed the front column and railing within the day and did a fantastic job cleaning up when they were finished. He took the time to make sure everything was the way I envisioned it in my head even with my older house being a bit crooked. I highly recommend Gordon Construction and can’t wait for my next project! "

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Cedar Rapids, IA
Pressure-treated wood decks typically last between 15 and 25 years with proper maintenance. Factors influencing longevity include local weather conditions, maintenance frequency, wood quality, and usage patterns. Regular sealing provides critical moisture protection, while prompt repairs prevent small issues from causing structural problems. Without proper care, even quality pressure-treated lumber may deteriorate significantly faster.
Most localities require building permits for deck construction, particularly for structures attached to your home or elevated above a certain height. Permit requirements vary significantly between jurisdictions, with costs typically ranging from $50 to $250. Skipping required permits may result in fines, forced removal, or complications when selling your property. Always check with your local building department before beginning construction.
While deck construction occurs year-round in many regions, late spring through early fall typically offers optimal building conditions. However, scheduling during off-peak seasons (late fall or winter) often secures better contractor availability and potentially lower rates. Weather considerations include avoiding periods of excessive rain or freezing temperatures that could complicate concrete work or wood installation.
Newly installed pressure-treated lumber requires a drying period before accepting stain or sealer properly. This waiting period typically ranges from four weeks to three months depending on your climate and the wood's initial moisture content. Testing readiness by sprinkling water on the surface helps determine when the wood will accept treatment—if water beads up, continue waiting; if it absorbs quickly, the deck is ready for staining.
