"Horrible , complete night mare & waste of money! I had to fire him. The ridge vent was never done on the front peak and other 2 were not cut open enough or long enough and were covered with a vapor barrier blue paper, the shingles had little asphalt left from many men walking in them in 90’ heat all afternoon, not a straight line as smashes and dragged by feet. The step flashing up the side of the house on the garage had nails in the corner of it all so my roof would surely leak, the drip edge was not installed properly , all work had to be redone by several other contractors. Plus the repairs done. Too much siding was ordered. Every time he left for the day he’d leave an opening to home somewhere like my gable vents or my roof where mushroom caps were or my attic as cut holes in side of house to enter so any rain or animals could get in. The soffits were plugged full of the blown in insulation he installed and he never put baffles under the fiber glass insulation on rafters so not only could no air pass due to clogged soffits it also would never pass fiberglass insulation with no baffles for air flow-. He then stuffed insulation in the dormer rafters going over bedrooms so again nothing would ever make it to the very narrow ridge vent he cut in. The siding was ripped off and all sharps were left protruding from our home for weeks making it extremely dangerous for us, our family & dogs. The lead paint was allowed to blow off the house also over that 2 week period. The window he took out and then reframed to put back in was also all wrong and had to pay another to back the window out 2 1/2 “ or so as he butted it right up to the plaster wall. Never insulated it or sealed any cracks knowing they were paving the streets the following day so all tar odor would leak into home. Broke a corner off the front patio, banged the light post with something enough to make it now wiggle, argues all day when here with his team and if not them me. Complained about his exwife the entire time was here. Was miserable and complaining of surgery for shoulder entire time was here. And he didn’t know how much longer he could even work with his shoulder so bad. He only appeared 2 days a week to work. Used a person I know with a great reputation to try and build his own. Also did this with my neighbor. I have picture, Ring Camera Video etc to prove it all. He found me on Angie’s list but never told Angie’s list he bid for the job and took it but never told them. The experience was nothing but a waste of money and stress the entire time."

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.
