"I had various estimates to repair or replace my old deck and went a considerable way toward doing it myself. I finally had several estimates to fully replace the old deck with high quality Timbertech / Azek materials. D&M came in with most favorable pricing and impressed me as honest and reliable people. Dino took a look at the layout of the old deck and very quickly proposed a reconfiguration with the beams and joists running 90 degrees from the layout of the old deck. It took a while for me to make up my mind to have the deck professionally done. I finally decided that it made the most sense to have it professionally done to meet all building codes and get a level of quality that I could not approach. In the course of attempting it myself I learned some things about quality deck construction. It quickly became clear to me that the deck (20' x 18') that Dino and his crew built was very sturdily constructed with 15 footings going to a depth of 48". Dino and his most experienced crew members did the footings to make sure the pattern was right and the footings were to the correct height. A crew of 3 carpenters (Hugo, Juan and Oscar) did the deck build from a Wednesday to the next Wednesday. I was impressed with how level all the beams and joists were and all the small but significant quality features they built in. The joists were on 14" centers making for a stronger platform for the PVC deck boards which are very flexible and could have ended up feeling a bit soft underfoot or wavy if the joists are not very level and at the same height. The manufacturer required 16" on center joists. The deck boards run the length of the deck to avoid seams and are very nicely attached with hidden fasteners. The stairs are built on footings making them very strong. Way overbuilt but in a good way. I chose the aluminum rail system when thinking of doing the project myself because it was supposed to be easiest for the do-it-yourselfer to install. We stuck with this when Dino did his quote. The carpenters did a great job installing the railing but it became clear to me that I would have ended up with $3,000 worth of scrap metal if I had attempted this myself. Lastly, the Elmhurst building code inspector visited three times, once to verify that the footing holes went to the required 48" depth, once to examine the framing and once to examine the finished deck. On his last visit, I asked him why he spent so little time examining the work. He responded that when it is done very well, it is obvious and he doesn't need to spend much time. I can recommend D&M Outdoor Living for your decking project without reservation. Bob B. Elmhurst, IL October 2019"

Owner-operated. Uses subs for plumbing & roofing. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. Service fees may apply. May contact through email or cell phone
"We decided to remove the old deck in our back yard and build a new larger one with a pergola. Jim did a great job from start to end. Before starting, he helped us deciding the material by providing quotes using cedar and composite. We decided to use cedar for both deck and pergola, and we love how it came out. Jim was very responsive during the design phase. So, we could finalize the design and start construction. At that point we had a tight schedule because of guests visiting during summer. Jim and his team worked hard and managed to be within schedule. The work was done very carefully, with great attention to details and we are very pleased by the outcome."

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct home features. Porches offer a roof that protects from the elements when coming and going from the house. Generally, porches are on the front of your home. On the other hand, decks are generally built in the backyard of a home and offer no roof or protection from the elements, like rain or snow. Porches typically require less maintenance and upkeep thanks to the roof, but both features require regular cleaning and repairs to maintain good condition.
The cost to build a deck is $8,025 on average. However, this cost can range anywhere from $1,500 to $22,000, depending on multiple factors, such as size, materials, and deck type. You can expect to pay $30 to $60 per square foot when building a new deck.
Cedar decks are often the most cost-effective option, ranging from $4 to $9 per square foot for materials. However, pressure-treated decking, which is resistant to rot, is more expensive, ranging from $15 to $25 per square foot for materials.
The cost of an awning is $1,400 to $4,400 on average. However, this cost could be as low as $100 or as high as $7,500, depending on a few factors. The type of awning you choose, the size you need, and your location all affect your overall cost.
For example, portable awnings you can put up and take down yourself range from $100 to $400, whereas motorized awnings are more luxurious and cost between $2,000 and $3,500.
Awnings are either fixed or retractable and can be paired with a variety of cover materials. Fixed awnings are a permanent outdoor feature of a building. These are highly durable and require ongoing maintenance. Once installed, the position of this awning cannot be changed.
Retractable awnings are more popular than fixed awnings since the cover can open and close. This allows homeowners to open and close the awning, depending on the weather. When not in use, it can be closed to allow for extra space.
Besides the type of awning, you’ll need to choose the type of cover. Your awning installation professional will review your options with you, including availability and costs. The types of covers you can choose from include:
Wood, which is durable but can be damaged easily by rainwater and fire
Cotton offers flexibility, weatherproofing, and easy cleaning
Canvas is highly durable and is a good choice for retractable awnings
Metal is sturdy but is prone to rust
Polyester is easy to clean and is a more breathable option
Polycarbonate is highly resistant to UV rays and is difficult to damage
