Northern Outdoor Services, LLCWe worked with SpaceTurtle to add a screened-in porch to the back of our house, replacing a small patio. The addition has quickly become a favorite place to hangout for the family. We couldn't be happier with the result, and I'm still impressed with the craftsmanship and attention to detail...
In all honesty, there were a few times where communication took a bit longer than expected, but the work they performed was top notch. I'm very happy I was recommended their service from a friend. Matt took my small idea and brought it to my yard, he really went above and beyond with the...
They did a wonderful job and even wash my patio door inside and out. Everything smells fresh and clean when they leave.
Simply Impeccable CleaningHad dozens and dozens of wasps swarming around our house and patio in late summer--they were not aggressive, only one sting, but it was worrisome--I would typically kill a dozen or so with a flyswatter in a matter of 30 minutes or less--but they would just keep coming. Called Paffys, set an...
PAFFY'S PEST CONTROLFirstly, Jane at Nystrom was great. She was very prompt in her responses and provided a very fair quote that met our needs. Both crews arrived on time and worked very efficiently. We generally had good experiences with both crews and were pleased with the services they provided. The only...
Nystrom Moving & StorageSaw Essig's work at a friend's house and asked for his name and number. He put in a brick patio for us in 2001. We were very pleased with the finished product. Would definitely consider using Essig's Tree and Landscape again.

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.
