"BRW Construction is fantastic. Brian and his team did an awesome job building our farmers porch. Even with all the rain days they completed the project completely on time, they even came on weekends to make up for the rain days, that’s unheard of these days. They cleaned everything up after a long days work too, they are very neat. We are so happy with our build and are looking forward to another project with them. We couldn’t be happier with the way it came out, it’s beautiful! Thank you Brian! We love the porch!"

"I had a very large deck (>800 sqft) redone and I'm very pleased with the end result. It is sturdy and looks great. My biggest complaint would be about inconsistent communication, which wouldn't have been such a big deal had the project not taken 3 months. Shortages of pressure-treated wood played a major role in the delay in the project, but on more than one occasion a whole week would go by without seeing or hearing from anyone. This is an unusual time because of c-19 so maybe I just got a little unlucky. In any case, I got a great deck at a great price, and even with the delays etc, I would hire them again."

"Shane came over, discussed the options and gave a fair price for our 8x9 porch-deck. Ian provided quality installation taking time to insure a good job. The entire project completed within the timeframe discussed originally with Shane. My only comaint is that I now have approximately 50 more Sq feet of snow to move this winter."

"They are amazing. Ky roof leaked, they were able to come up with affordable solutions. They fit me into their busy schedule very rapidly. They are prompt, very respectful and professional on the jobsite, they did great work and were very neat. They made sure to check the grounds multiple times for any scraps, nails, or other debris before leaving. There was no sign they were ever there except for a beautiful new roof. I highly recommend them."

Customers say: Quality work

"Steve Andrews Construction is everything you would want, hope for, and desire in a professional contractor. We hired Steve for a full kitchen/dining renovation (down to the studs and sub floor), tiling of a 3 season porch, and the replacement of 2 entryway doors. From our initial consultation Steve was on time, concise, reasonable, organized, thorough, and attentive to details. Qualities that persisted through out the 8 weeks of the project(s). Steve's quality of work, attention to detail and unwavering standards are of the highest regard, he is a true craftsman in his field. He was always on time, cleaned up after himself daily and kept all stock, supplies, tools, and equipment for the job neat and organized. I can say that my experience was remarkable, enjoyable, and 100% positive. If you are to go under contract with Steve Andrews Construction, you will have a contractor for life, as I do."

"Capital Construction did an excellent job building a new 2 level trex deck on my house. Communication was a bit slow at times, thus the 4.5 stars on service, but the final product is great, so alls well that ends well! There were a few minor touch-ups that I requested at the end of the project, and they were thorough in addressing my concerns so that I was fully satisfied."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Franklin, NH

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.
