Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) in Foster City, CA  

Do Outdoor Living Spaces Add Value?

Yes, well-designed outdoor living spaces can significantly increase the value and appeal of your home, offering a high return on investment.

Deck or Patio: Which is Better?

The choice between a deck and a patio depends on your specific needs, preferences, and the characteristics of your property. Decks can offer a view and a sense of elevation and are ideal for sloped yards, while patios provide a cost-effective ground-level outdoor space that often requires less maintenance.

What are the Pros and Cons of Adding a Deck?

You’ll gain plenty of room to stretch out and relax when you add a deck. You’ll enjoy a higher resale value, plus you’ll be able to sit outside and look at nature from an elevated position! A wooden deck will also help absorb and maintain heat during colder weather. 

 

On the downside, it’s possible you’ll need a permit, and you’ll have to stay within certain weight restrictions. You’ll also need to perform some basic maintenance as the years pass.

How Do I Plan an Outdoor Living Area?

Planning an outdoor living area takes some time. Working with our deck contractors makes it a breeze, who can point out things you may not have considered. The basic steps to planning your outside area include: 

 

  • Take the time to study your existing landscape. 

  • Imagine the best way to use the space - what do you want to be able to do?.

  • Research various materials, design elements and functional features that appeal to you. 

  • Meet with our team of design experts and let us know what you're thinking. 

  • We agree on a design that meets your budget and checks all those boxes for you - and then our experts make it happen!

How Much Does a Custom Deck Build or Patio Installation Cost?

The cost of building an outdoor living space varies based on the project's scale, materials, and complexity. We provide transparent estimates and work with you to design a project that fits your budget.

Do I Need a Permit to Build a Deck in Foster City?

Most large deck or patio structures require a permit. Some exceptions exist, decks that are 200 square feet or less and have no portion that is 30 inches above grade may be exempt from a permit. Don’t worry—MEJA handles all permitting and compliance as part of our service.

What are Popular Add-ons for Outdoor Space Renovations?

  • Outdoor kitchens and bar areas
