We provide services in all aspects of home improvement but tend to specialize in decks, siding, paver, patio, and basement remodeling and installation. RORHI has been awarded the #1 Trex deck installers for the last 4 yrs.
"I was with the contractor that made me think that because my good credit I was getting a good financing interest around 7% and he did not tell me that my granite steps had to be removed, he told me after the loan went through at a rate of almost 14% at this moment I would like to cancel the project, I am under a lot of stress and having back issues I am afraid that because I take time off from work I am not going to be able to pay for this high interest loan."

"I signed a contract with Jesse on March 26th for a deck replacement. His quote seemed fair and communication was good. He said that work could begin once he received the permit, which would take 1-2 weeks. On April 10th I asked for an update and he said the permit was still pending. The next day he says the city requested a drawing. April 15th he says the city now wants even more documents, causing this huge delay. April 16th I ask if it would help if I called the Building Dept myself to ask for an update? He said no, suggested it might delay things even further if the employees do not like me asking about it. So I leave it alone a few more days, but now it is been four weeks and I wonder if Jesse is just stringing me along, maybe finishing some other jobs and not being transparent with me on why this job is delayed. Finally, I look into the city records online (should've done this weeks ago). Not only is there no permit for this deck job, but there is no record of Jesse having a permit in Worcester at any time (the database seems to have at least 5 years of history), and I looked for all variations I could think of for his name and company name. So it is not looking good, but to make sure I am not missing anything I call the Building Dept. They tell me there is no record of Jesse requesting a permit for anything in Worcester (nothing is pending). When I spoke with him today (April 23rd), told him there is no record of a permit request, he says he is going to have a friend pull the permit because that friend always gets fast turnaround on his permits whereas Jesse does not (he even cited a recent example where he supposedly pulled a permit in Worcester but it took a long time - I did not bother telling him I know this is not true, these records are public and he's not in any of them). When I pushed back on his claims, saying there is no evidence of any of this, he says he was just at city hall dropping off documents... I doubt any contractor is going in person to city hall instead of using the online portal. Sounds like more b.s. to me. I was also interested to see the fees the city charges for permits: looks like they would have cost a few hundred dollars, not the three thousand that Jesse claimed."

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 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.
Yes, adding either a porch or deck (or both!) to your home can add value. Both of these features add character and curb appeal to your home, but even more importantly, they add an element of convenience. Plus, these home features create additional square footage of living space to your home. Adding a porch onto your home can give you a return on investment (ROI) of up to 84%, while adding a deck can provide an ROI of up to 80%.
Several types of porches are available to meet your needs and style preferences. Some common porch types include:
Porticos are essentially a roof over a walkway leading to the home's front entrance.
Sunrooms are closed-in porches that are an extension of the house with glass or plastic panels that allow optimal sunlight.
Wraparound porches extend around the entire home, or at least the front and one side, and offer multiple entrances to the house.
Back porches are an extension of the home’s floor into the outdoors. These offer more protection and privacy than a deck.
As with patios, there are many types of deck choices to choose from to add personalization to your home. Some common deck options include:
Attached decks are anchored to the home and include simple ground-level options or multi-level structures with stairways and separate landings.
Detached island decks are not attached to the home; they’re a freestanding structure in the yard.
Wraparound decks connect the back of the house with at least one other side and often are built with railings for safety.
Multi-level decks connect your deck through varying levels of elevation, featuring landings that are attached to stairs.
