    We're interested in adding a screened porch, if anyone has a recommendation (or who to avoid if your experience was not good) we'd like to hear it. Thanks, much appreciated.

    Tom Wilson and the Deckhands, LLC. I found him on this forum, did additional research by visiting some of his jobs and speaking with his previous customers and on Angie's list. He built us a deck and screened in porch (16x45). Our next door neighbor loved it and also had one built by Tom. I've had several other neighbors come by to look and inquire. I know one of them has already done the paperwork for their's. He has a FB page.... The Deckhands, LLC.

    About a year ago. do a search for his name on this forum. I think once you meet him you'll see he's a pretty stand up guy.

    I'm glad to see your recommendation. I've had them bookmarked for awhile since reading their positive reviews online.

    We used Virginia Deck. Mike is a sole proprietor, so only builds one at a time and does 15-20 per year. Did a fantastic job on ours and came in below other quotes. PM me if you'd like to see my deck. Mike's email is virginiadeck@yahoo.com. The only negative is he does not check email during the day, so it took several attempts for him to respond to my initial inquiry. Once he starts he is very responsive, attentive, etc.
