Worst contractor I have ever dealt with. First he is not a general contractor he is a handy man. He has no ability to pull permits. I asked him specifically if he was a gc and was insured. However, he is not a licensed gc. He is a handyman and in order to pull a contract he has to game the...
Very difficult getting county planning and zoning approval, but SDG's chief project manager made it happen. Excellent work on his part. The excavation contractor - Micke Digging & Hauling - was excellent: they scraped, dug, poured for the foundation and floors on time and did a good...
I was impressed from my first phone call. The woman who answered explained exactly what her firm could do, how they would do it, how long it would take, and how much it would cost. I had called several area pest control firms because we had a pretty serious mouse problem in a building that...

"Shawn did an amazing job on my front steps! I had such an ugly and old set of stairs that weren’t up to code and were falling apart which was causing a safety hazard. Shawn was able to get to my project very quickly and was very communicative during the demolition of the old stairs and construction of the new stairs. He completed the project very quickly! I’ve even started using the door that is farther away from my garage just to use the new steps because they are so nice! If anyone is considering Niemuth Construction for their next project.. Look no more! You found the one! Thanks Shawn!!"

"Took a full year from when we put the deposit down for a new liner, to get installed! They came out over 10 times measuring and re-measuring. Finally I sent my measurements directly to Merlin and I also was the one who approved there prints. so that they could start making it. Gary said ?they will have the liner in 5 days and install on the next day. 2 weeks later he finally installs the liner and explains to me that Merlin requires a new way of measuring and that is why he was having an issue (it was a standard tape measure). Gary through out the summer had multiple excuses as to why various things weren?t going as planned. He had 1 employee quit, the replacement got first, and hire two young guys (in which 1 quit). Now he is heading back home, the Philippines and doesn?t plan on coming back. The one guy that stayed is going to buy the business over payments (no experience, except the last 3 months). BEWARE!"

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.
