"We were thoroughly impressed with Randy's approach to providing us with a bid. He arrived with a complete package/brochure which included a letter of introduction and an unsolicited list of references of work completed within our local area. Randy was very patient with us in trying to decide whether to use cedar or pressurized wood to support the deck as well as our seasonal porch. On the first day of work, a three man crew arrived with Brandon as the lead team member. The crew was very professional, knowledgeable, and quiet as they worked for the next five days. They were extremely tidy in cleaning up during and after the work product was installed. We would definitely use their services again and recommend them to others. A job very WELL DONE!"

"They were very quick to respond to our questions throughout the build process. They accommodated the changes we made throughout the planning process. They were efficient with the build and very clean throughout the project (they didn't leave tools laying out or garbage). The office staff and builders were very friendly and kept us informed throughout the project. We absolutely love how the deck turned out and are excited to build our second deck with them this spring. We have worked with several contractors (concrete, fence, construction, sprinklers, etc) and we highly recommend Dupont!"

"The project went great. I had them replace my back deck. The deck was done on time. They had to add extra supports since the old deck hadn’t been done to code. A few months later I decided to update my front porch and they did a great job! That fall, we needed a new roof so we hired them again, for a third time and I can’t say enough about their quality and timeliness. I would hire them again."

"Best work crew that I have ever work with. Extremely professional and quick. While other companies where charging 20% more and give us an estimate time of 2 weeks for the job to be completed. MYA did the whole deck in 2.5 days, including tear down and full rebuild. Even the Eden Prairie inspector mention that they really know what they where doing. Fantastic job. Highly recommend"

"Reetz Construction did a great job! My new deck looks amazing! From start to finish, Ethan Reetz was fair, honest, respectful, and fast. He obtained the permit and finished our 15x15 deck in 5 days. We couldn't be happier! This young man is the best around to do a deck or job for you!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Vern is one of the best contractors I have ever worked with. We built an IPE deck and it turned out better than we had even hoped. We interviewed several contractors before hiring Vern, and he was by far the the most attentive to to our vision and plans, and was open to materials that are tougher and more time consuming to work with. He was a great communicator at ever step of the build, and was open to modifications as we moved through the project. I can't say enough good things about him or his crew. Top notch carpenter that I would hire again without hesitation."

FAQs for deck or porch projects in Lakeville, MN

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.
