133 Response to request for quote was lightning-fast. Met with me the same day to size up the project and provide an estimate. Showed up on time the following Monday morning with crew and equipment to remove a very large tree that had fallen in a sloping, wooded area near the edge of my property....
B&G TREE SERVICEPromptly returned call and arranged time to come out. Did come out on time for quote. Quickly assessed that job was too large / complex and that it was not the right fit for their company. Would have still appreciated a more detailed quote for driveway despite not being able to do patio...
O'Leary Concrete Company LLCOne of the best decisions I have ever made for my house was giving Andrew virtually no direction on this project. I had a patio area with inadequate drainage, and a retaining wall that didn't retain anything, installed by the previous owner. It had suffered two major setbacks (sewer repair...
JD Dunninaday LandscapesFirst of all, I want to point out that the job done on my house was an insurance claim for wind damage to my shingle roof. Although the job cost was $13,280 my insurance covered the total cost except for my deductible of $1,000. Yes, I was suprised that my insurance company covered the...
At Your Service Roofing and RemodelingMike's estimate was fair and I had to wait for the old botched job to go through the court system. When I am ready to have the patio fixed, I will definitely call Mike.
Overall, this was not a pleasant experience. My first clue that we shouldn't hire this company is that a gentleman was walking the neighborhood soliciting jobs, and our community does not allow soliciting, but my husband was outside working in the yard and set up an appointment for someone...
They took great care in working with us to come up with a design, and even left us with flags and markings that showed where the patio and landscaping would be, so we could "sit with it" for a week or so and make sure it was exactly what we wanted. We ended up tweaking the design a little,...

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.
Vinyl is a durable and relatively inexpensive choice of decking material. Your vinyl deck cost will depend on labor, the deck size, and more.
When calculating the cost to add an awning to a home exterior, you will need to consider the awning type, necessary materials, and whether or not you will need a pro to handle the installation. This guide will illustrate typical awning prices.
Pergolas and gazebos are both popular choices for shade and sun protection. Learn whether a pergola vs. gazebo is the right choice for you, depending on the size of your lawn and whether you want a classic or modern design.
A retractable patio awning creates a comfortable outdoor space that can insulate and protect your home. Here's a look at its pros and cons.
