133 In the beginning of the summer I had a new patio installed at my home. One of the guys came out and made me a nice sketch of a 15x15 patio with a stamped texture. I was extremely satisfied with the results. I am happy to say we are enjoying our patio.
One 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 LandscapesMike'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...
The crew was punctual, professional, and the end result is a high quality patio that we are very satisfied with.
We bought a house in 3/10 that had a patio room built by Patio Enclosures. In 2/11 we requested a service call. We had to call back twice over a two-week period because no one called us back to schedule it. When they did finally schedule a call, their rep made it clear they did not...
Patio EnclosuresKevin was fantastic. He was very professional and detailed in the estimate he gave us. We had a patio consisting of stone and mortar with an old concrete set of large steps and a small sidewalk. The previous owner had attempted to conceal the fact that the old steps were disintegrating by...

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.
