Archadeck of Central Connecticut
Deck Builders & Contractors in Old Lyme
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 26, 2013
“We are currently working with Archadeck to replace our existing deck with a new screened-in porch and patio area. We are still in the designing and permitting phase, but thus far the process has been smooth and very enjoyable. Phil is a wonderful collaborator and we have thoroughly enjoyed discussing all of our ideas with him to come up with a plan for an amazing outside space.”

Archadeck of West Rhode Island
Deck Builders & Contractors in Old Lyme
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 15, 2015
“Susan and Daniel were wonderful to work with. Susan creatively designed a fabulous deck to fit our space, and gave us various material options to customize it to fit our needs. She incorporated built-in benches, and other touches that we never would have thought of, increasing the functionality of our deck tremendously. It has become a favorite gathering spot for our family. Throughout the entire process, all permits and details were handled by the Lee's, and all we had to do was enjoy our new deck. The project stayed right on budget, and the Lee's' skills and knowledge were apparent. This was our second project with them, as they also remodeled our front stairs and created a front sitting porch for us as well. They are wonderful and I could not recommend them more highly!”

Lakeside Trading
Deck Builders & Contractors in Old Lyme
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 1, 2020
“I purchased a shed from Lakeside Trading last April, 2019. I couldn’t be happier with the whole experience. I was looking for a “she shed” for storage of my gardening tools. I found the perfect one right there on the Lakeside lot, no special ordering required. It easily meet all my needs as well as several extra features (like the small loft for extra storage) which I love. Delivery and installation was smooth and professional and exactly as promised. It was Sales Associate Paul’s, second week on the job. He was great throughout.”

  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.
