Featured Reviews for Deck Builders & Contractors in Childs

Stump's Decks and Porches
Deck Builders & Contractors in Childs
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 15, 2014
“I hired Stump to build a second floor deck off my kitchen. It was a tricky design because I was limited by a bay window on one side, an outlet on the other side and a patio below. Stump gave me some very good design ideas for the space and that was one of the main reasons I chose them. I am very happy with the appearance and structure of the deck. My township inspector was complimentary of their workmanship as well. They also were the least expensive of the three quotes I received. I would definitely use them again if doing another project of this nature and give them a strong positive recommendation.”
Keystone Custom Decks
Deck Builders & Contractors in Childs
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 19, 2013
“We contracted with Keystone Custom Decks to build a porch onto the back of our home. We interviewed a few companies but Keystone blew us away with their creativity, presentation, and professionalism.......and to top it off, they had the best price! This family operated company was extremely reliable, hard working, and very dedicated to producing the perfect addition to our house. Additionally, they were very respectful and professional throughout the entire process. Now we have a beautiful, solid, quality porch and we couldn't be happier! I would highly recommend them, and will call on their services again for future needs!”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 15, 2012
“American Deck and Patio recently designed and built my beautiful outdoor living space that includes a paver patio and screened porch. They were great to work with the whole process was transparent.

“I highly recommend Bluewater Construction, they did such an amazing job on my patio. Not only did they transform my back yard, they installed a custom patio that fits my needs perfectly in just a few days. The owners were very polite and involved in the entire process. I am looking forward to entertaining in my new space this summer.”

Coastal Outdoor Spaces
Deck Builders & Contractors in Childs
Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsJanuary 15, 2015
“We recently had our 20 yr old wood deck refurbished with new vinyl flooring and railing. It turned out much better than we had imagined. Other companies tried to talk us into building a whole new deck, but Brandon assured us that it wasn't necessary -and saved us a significant amount of money. We have already recommended Coastal- and Brandon- to several of our friends.”
American Landscape Structures
Deck Builders & Contractors in Childs
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 4, 2017
“We purchased a pavilion kit and built it ourselves. It took a bit of work, but we couldn't have been happier with the customer service or the resulting structure. It has transformed our backyard. We have several parties planned for this spring and summer and they will all be in the backyard. We added wiring on the pavilion for lights, outlets, and a ceiling fan, to keep it pleasant no matter how hot it is. We also purchased a propane heater so we can be outside even late into fall or on cool spring and summer evenings. In the attached picture, my son threw a party for his school band in late November and they were able to enjoy being outside despite the cooler weather. I hope to add more pictures soon of all the events we have planned.”

  5. Aluminum Decking: Lightweight, durable, rust-resistant, suitable for water areas, but more expensive.

Regional factors and personal preferences impact the best choice. Consult a decking contractor in Childs for tailored advice on climate, regulations, and budget. Remember to consider appearance, maintenance, and local factors when selecting the ideal decking material for your needs.

It’s better to build a patio when:

  1. Privacy is a priority: Patio provides a sense of privacy, especially when enclosed.
  2. Budget and low maintenance are the priority: Patios are generally more cost-effective to build and require less maintenance.
  3. The ground is flat: For even ground, constructing a patio is easier and more straightforward.

It’s better to build a deck when:

  1. Scenic views are desired: Decks offer better views.
  2. You are fine with obtaining building permits and inspections: Decks typically require permits and inspections due to their structural impact on the home.
  3. The ground is uneven: If your backyard has slopes or uneven terrain, a deck can provide a stable and level outdoor space.

Consult with a professional contractor or designer. They provide personalized advice based on your requirements and help create an outdoor living area that suits your lifestyle.

What services do deck and patio companies in Childs, MD provide?
