Recent Decks Porches Reviews in Syracuse
- Keyman ConstructionKeyman construction absolutely nailed this project! We provided Wayne and his team with a loose sketch of what we wanted and a couple example photographs. They took that and turned it into a legitimate design. They worked quickly, tearing down the old structure. Did a great job reinforcing the existing deck framework and then refinished the deck to match the custom design. The final result was outstanding and exactly what we wanted. We couldn’t be happier. In addition Wayne and his team were professional, courteous and a pleasure to work with
- Keyman ConstructionGreat job! Arrived on time. Completed job early, no mess and great price. I would hire again in a second!! They even took care of an item on their own!!
- Keyman ConstructionWayne was great to work with! We actually had to postpone our deck project because the materials we chose were delayed due to all the shipping issues during the pandemic so we had to wait until the following spring and Wayne still honored his price from the previous year! He promised we would be his first project as soon as the weather broke and he came through. We had our beautiful deck by Memorial Day and we couldn’t be happier! He was great to work with and I referred him to a close friend for their decking/patio needs and they were very satisfied as well. Wayne pays attention to detail and is great with communicating throughout the project. Highly recommend
- Keyman ConstructionKeyman was great! Very friendly service, communicates what needs to be done, is adaptable when problems arise and is very reasonably priced. I'm an investor, and Keyman did a full renovation of several flips as well as doing work on my residence.
- Keyman ConstructionI highly recommend them. They were professional, had the work done when they said it would be. I was so happily and pleased with the outcome. Price was very reasonable and they took the time to really make sure we were all on the same page before they did anything and I really appreciated that. I will definitely be using them again
- BH CarpentryBJ did such a great job with the old deck removal and putting the new one up. Dryer vent had to be moved because of railing & is more efficient than it was. There were several other things I asked to be done & BJ did them also. I would not hesitate to hire him again for other projects. He is the best
- BH CarpentryMy new replacement deck is beautiful and very rich looking done completely in brown. Everyone who sees it is so impressed on how great it looks. BJ was the best finishing this job in a week! I would highly recommend him.
- DiMartino Construction & RemodelingWe were so happy with DiMartino construction and the entire crew. Their work was excellent. The job site was kept extremely clean, they had great attention to detail, and fully addressed all questions and concerns we had. I couldn't be happier with their work, and fully recommend them!
- Royalty ConstructionI can't say it enough the deck came out beautiful. He pays so much attention to detail and had to add a few things along the way, but he kept us informed of what we needed to add so we could give the go ahead without having surprise added cost. We have used James and his wife for other projects around the house and will continue to do so. Everything is always done exceptionally well and they stand behind their work. Best of the best for sure! Thanks again as always guys
- The Roofing GuysKen came out and gave me the estimate on Monday, the team was here on Tuesday, worked all day and came back this morning (Wednesday) and finished everything up. Roof looks great! I would recommend them to anyone!

"My wife and I hired Artisan Renovations to do our kitchen remodel. We chose him because he came up with a great design for our kitchen and his estimate was very reasonable. On day one, he put up plastic walls around our kitchen to minimize the spread of dust to the rest of our house. He worked very hard to finish up any projects before leaving for the day. He was very respectful of our dogs and my working from home situation. At the end, there were no surprise expenses. My wife and I are extremely happy with the way the kitchen turned out. Several of our family members have already asked for his card after seeing our kitchen. We will definitely hire him again when it's time for the next project.

"Frank is very nice gentleman and showed great patience with my questions and frustrations. The original plans called for concrete patio, but with the Tennessee weather, the rain had other ideas. Ultimately we installed a 16x16 ground floor deck and a 6x4 deck leading up to sliding door. The demo, build, and finishing took three days. The work was high quality and they cleaned up the site well. I have other projects I need to have done around the house and Frank found a return customer. Thanks Frank!!

"The staff that came out, they're okay. He cleared the snow and in two weeks they had to do it again."
At Reyes Painting. Our mission is simple, to provide high-quality services for our valued clients. Our goal is the satisfaction of the client in each project.
"I cannot express how impressed and thrilled I am with the work and painting done by Reyes. I started with one small bathroom. They were so good that I ended up having my master bathroom redone, the master bedroom painted, the living room, the kitchen, and now the exterior of my 33 year old cedar shake home (last painted in 2009). I’ve never so much have found a trace or tiny droplet of paint anywhere! Meticulous, respectful, friendly, knowledgeable and talented. I highly recommend Reyes for any job (I also had new vanities put in both bathrooms, new flooring in the bathrooms and kitchen (my master bathroom needed an entire new subfloor). They installed all of the plumbing, new lighting fixtures, mirrors, cabinets, and again, the painting is perfect. You will not find a more dependable, affordable and talented team. Reyes takes pride in their work, and it shows!

"We hired Vinny through our architect to perform most of the steps of our addition and whole house renovation in 2016. His crew was easy to work with, highly skilled, and very knowledgeable of all the work that he was hired to do. In addition, he gave great advice to us as we worked along side him on the tasks that we chose to complete ourself. His insight was especially appreciated when he found a way to recess our steel beams into the ceiling (engineer approved) in order to give us a clearer sight line through the kitchen and great room. We would definitely hire Vinny and his crew again for a future project.

"Excellent work. The cleaning itself went quickly and smoothly, but the tubing went into the crawl space under the house and had fallen apart, so he had to fit those back together first, which took most of the time. We didn't need the dryer itself to be cleaned, so he worked only on cleaning out the tubing.

Join Angi nowTypical pricing for pro porch or deck construction or repairs
Your deck's size is generally one of the most important factors in estimating total costs of the job. The average cost is $30 to $60 per square foot. That brings the total average cost of deck jobs in the U.S. to $4,100 to $11,200.
Multi-level decks are typically less affordable than one-story decks. For example, the typical price point of a first-story deck ranges from around $7,700 to $15,400. The cost for a second-story deck runs from $9,700 to $20,500.
Prices vary based on materials. Pressure-treated wood and composite are typical materials for decks, with wood tending to cost less. For patio construction, concrete might be less costly than options such as brick.
A lot of considerations go into the price of a porch project. Reaching out to porch businesses in Syracuse to get a quote is the best way to understand how much your potential project might cost.
