If you have spent even one summer in Chandler, Texas, you know that our afternoons aren’t just warm: they are intense. When the temperature hits 100°F or higher, your beautiful back patio can quickly become a no-go zone. You want to enjoy the fresh air, but the combination of the scorching sun and the relentless East Texas mosquitoes often drives you back inside.
This is exactly why so many of your neighbors are investing in professional back porch enclosures. It is the most effective way to reclaim your outdoor space and turn a seasonal deck into a year-round living room. At ABC Decking, we specialize in high-quality wooden enclosures that blend seamlessly with your home’s architecture while providing the protection you need.
The "One Job at a Time" Difference
When you decide to invest in your home, you deserve a contractor who is as committed to the project as you are. Most construction companies juggle five or six jobs at once, leaving your backyard a mess for weeks while they jump between sites.
Undivided attention for your home. At ABC Decking, we operate on a "one job at a time" philosophy. This means that once we start on your porch enclosure, you have our 100% focus until the final nail is driven. We don't leave to start other projects; we stay on-site to ensure the work progresses efficiently and to our high standards.
Daily supervision by the owner. Aaron Baugh, the owner of ABC Decking, doesn't just sell the job and disappear. He is the one who designs your project and supervises the job site every single day. This hands-on approach ensures that the meticulous attention to detail we are known for is present in every beam and board of your new enclosure.
Why Wood Is the Superior Choice for Your Enclosure
While some companies push synthetic materials, we believe there is no substitute for the natural beauty and structural integrity of high-quality wood. A wooden porch enclosure offers a classic, warm aesthetic that enhances the value of your property in a way that "plastic" alternatives simply cannot.
Natural temperature regulation. Wood has excellent thermal properties, meaning it doesn't bake in the sun like metal or composite materials. This helps keep your enclosed space significantly cooler during those Chandler heatwaves.
Customized architectural matching. Every home in Chandler is unique. Because we work with wood, we can easily customize the deck design and framing to match your existing roofline and siding. Whether you want a rustic look with heavy timbers or a clean, modern finish, wood provides the flexibility to make it happen.
Built to a Higher Standard: 35+ Years of Experience
When you hire a builder, you aren't just paying for labor; you are paying for their knowledge of what makes a structure safe and durable. Aaron Baugh brings over 35 years of hands-on construction and building experience to every project.
Experience across diverse environments. Aaron's expertise isn't limited to one region. He has built structures to meet:
- Florida hurricane specs, where wind resistance is critical.
- Oklahoma tornado specs, requiring advanced structural anchoring.
- Pennsylvania snow loads, where weight-bearing integrity is paramount.
Even though we don't get many hurricanes in Chandler, we do get intense Texas thunderstorms and high winds. Bringing this level of diverse engineering knowledge to your back porch means your enclosure is built far above the minimum local requirements. We build for longevity and safety, ensuring your structure can withstand whatever the Texas climate throws at it.
The Written Craftsmanship & Safety Warranty
We know that "peace of mind" is a phrase often used in sales, but we prefer to put it in writing. Every project we complete comes with our Written Craftsmanship & Safety Warranty. This isn't just a verbal promise; it is a formal document you can keep for your records.
Focus on critical safety areas. Our warranty includes a clear 3-year labor promise on decking boards, handrails, and stairs. These are the areas that see the most wear and are the most vital for your family's safety.
Formalizing our commitment. This warranty is a formalization of Aaron’s 35+ years of hands-on construction and building experience. It reflects our confidence in our work and gives you a clear path for support should any labor-related issues arise. Because Aaron supervises the work daily, we rarely have to use it, but having that physical copy in your hand makes a big difference.
Boosting Your Home's Functionality
An enclosed porch is more than just a place to sit; it is a functional extension of your home. Chandler homeowners find that adding an enclosure provides several immediate benefits:
- Mosquito-free evenings: Enjoy the sunset without the need for bug spray or citronella candles.
- Outdoor dining: Host family dinners or weekend brunches in a clean, shaded environment.
- Extended living space: Many of our clients use their enclosures as a secondary living room, a workout space, or a quiet spot for a home office.
- Improved energy efficiency: By shading the back of your home, a porch enclosure acts as a buffer zone, helping to keep your interior rooms cooler and potentially lowering your AC costs.
Transparent Pricing and BBB Accreditation
We believe that home improvement should be an exciting experience, not a stressful one filled with hidden costs. At ABC Decking, we pride ourselves on transparent pricing. When we provide a bid, you will see exactly where your investment is going. There are no "surprise" fees halfway through the build.
A reputation you can trust. We are BBB accredited and have a long history of satisfied customers in the Chandler and Tyler areas. Our reputation is built on reliability, craftsmanship, and the fact that we treat every home as if it were our own.
Keeping the Process Simple
We understand that you are busy. You don't want to sift through hundreds of confusing options or manage a rotating door of subcontractors. That is why we keep our recommendations clear and professional. We focus on what we know works best for the Texas climate: high-quality wooden structures built with expert precision.
Straightforward selection. We guide you through the deck building and enclosure process by providing standard professional recommendations that balance beauty with durability. Our goal is to make the bidding and construction process as simple and stress-free as possible for you.
