"I’ll start by thanking HomeAdvisor for recommending a superior trades person! Jeff Richbourg was a gentleman and a skilled contractor! Same holds true for his crew! It is very comforting to have someone doing a quality job and all the while feeling as all that was important was the customer was happy! I enjoyed dealing with Jeff and suggest anyone to feel perfectly comfortable in hiring him! He build us a real quality deck addition and enclosure for our front porch. Hats off to Grizzley Construction. Thanks Jeff"

"The job was done in a very professional manner paying attention to detail and quality of the supplies provided and used for the fencing. The job was done efficiently and exactly to the specifications that I required. He made sure that I was satisfied with the job at different stages of the construction. I had one or two specific things that I wanted done and he made sure that they were installed properly as they were being done. He worked very neatly and cleaned up all of the property of any cut or waste materials. His men were very proficient at performing their individual tasks paying attention once more to quality and to my satisfaction.

"We needed to have a tile floor in a bathroom that had stained grout (was put in during the 60's) and a bedroom that had stained carpet replaced with laminate flooring and shoe round included around the edge. This was especially hard in the bathroom where the walls are covered by tile, so the edging could not be nailed in the way they were in the bedroom. All looks great and is holding up well. Also, turned out the tiles that were popping up in the dining room had been put on using wall adhesive rather than the proper type of flooring adhesive needed. The guys were able to pop loose the tiles that needed to be replaced and grind off the old adhesive so they could be reused. I only had to get/use 4 new replacement tiles because they were successful in reusing every tile that was not broken before they arrived. They did a great job getting the grout to match and putting the 4 new tiles in an unobtrusive spot. Since these tiles had been put in during the 80's, we were not able to get matching tiles, so that really makes a big difference to us. Saved us a ton of money. I needed to separate a upper and lower level of a house to create a rental, and Handyman Xpress helped me find a simple, inexpensive way to make the current door work so that both halves of the house are private when the tenants choose, and they have access to both parts when the parties are in agreement. Love the convenience and flexibility. They also helped by cutting a ceiling tile to fit a closet ceiling that was missing it's ceiling. I had not scheduled that last part ahead of time, but they cheerfully added it to the to-do list and finished it quickly and it looks great."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Franklin, NC

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.
