We wanted to complete the project before the fourth of July and even though Charles was booked he worked us in and completed the project on time. We are very happy with our new deck and patio. The crew was friendly and on time and Charles is a good person and easy to work with to help you...

"My family experienced water and wind damage earlier this year. We had to be placed in a hotel. After reaching out to numerous companies, we chose Maynor construction. I am glad we did!! If it wasnâ t for Maynor and his staff, I wouldnâ t have made it. The process was long and depressing because of being away from home. However Maynor and his staff reassured me. They showed patience with me and worked hand and hand with my insurance company with getting my home repaired in a timely manner. Thank you Maynor! I truly feel like we are family!"

I am a 4th generation carpenter. As soon as I could stand and swing a hammer; I was right there helping my great grandfather, grandfather, and father with everything on the farm and with our family construction business. I am following in their footsteps. It makes me sick knowing these large companies charge what they charge; how can they sleep at night? Yes, I need to be able to provide for my family, but I want you to do the same. I have worked with another contractor since I was 18 years old; he later was our town building inspector. He has taught me to pay attention to detail even more than my grandfathers and father did! He is one of the few guys out there that still does it all, no contraction work. I admire that and do the same. It is just me; if for some reason I need some extra muscle for a job, it is only trusted family who works by my side. I wouldn't want who knows who at my home where my family is; I know you don't either. I pride myself on good and honest work. I do it all; from dirt to rooftop. My specialties are roofs, siding, decks, and remodels. I will not get into something I do not feel comfortable with. You can trust me to always do a job correctly. I went on my own fulltime with my LLC in the middle of Covid in the summer of 2020, but I have been doing this type of work on my own as a side gig since 1995. With the support of my wife, I have been able to make this my fulltime job to support my family.
"They were great. They repaired my deck and added on to it. It looks great!"

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 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.
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.
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
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
Retractable awnings add curb appeal and help keep the sun out of your eyes when you're working indoors or lounging on the back patio or deck. In this price guide, you'll learn how much retractable awnings cost.
