Construct new back porch and deck
by

(IC: homeowner)
We had to remove a rotted back porch. So we decided to construct a new back porch and deck and landscape.
* Cost Comments:
$3,000 for desk
$500 landscaping
Advice:
You need to check with the local building inspector to determine the depth of footings and to approve your plans. A porch and desk are considered structures that require a building permit.
It was great. The next project is painting the house. For that we'll hire a painter.
Materials:
composite decking - $0.00
wood and hardware - $0.00
