Why Minnesota Homeowners Choose dREamodel for Their Decks & Porches

Planning a new deck or porch involves more than just choosing materials. Homeowners need a contractor who can explain options, think through the layout, and communicate clearly from design through construction. dREamodel helps make that process easier with thoughtful planning, experienced craftsmanship, and a focus on outdoor spaces built specifically for Minnesota homes.

We received quotes from three different contractors and we could tell early on that Jon was the most knowledgeable and easiest to work with.

From start to finish the process was incredibly smooth. His showroom made it extremely easy to visualize and make choices for our 30'x16' three-season porch / deck combo.

A month later, they had all the permits, materials, and plans laid out and began construction. Thirteen business days after that, they had everything complete. I truly couldn't recommend them enough.

We are very happy with our re-deck. Darren went above and beyond. Even the city inspector gave us compliments on the job.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Jon and his team. Incredibly professional, communicated frequently to keep us informed, left the job clean every night, respected our home and were so friendly. Jon listened when we shared what we wanted to accomplish with this remodel. He never pushed us to do anything more than we planned. The craftsmanship was incredible! They got this job done in 2.5 weeks and it is beautiful. We have nothing to say on what could’ve been better. From start to finish, they were top notch. We highly recommend for all your remodel needs!

We talked with dREamodel regarding adding a 3 season sunroom to our house. Darren was extremely responsive and able to answer all of our questions. We met some of the dREamodel staff at their showroom in Maplewood and had the opportunity to see the products that would be used for our project. Very knowledgeable and customer focused. Past client references spoke highly of dREamodel, not just about the construction process but about the customer service provided. If you are considering an outdoor project for your house, reach out to Darren at dREamodel. You won’t be disappointed.

We had the pleasure of working with Darren Wagner, who truly made us feel like family rather than customers. He provided us with a wealth of information and several great options for our deck. Everyone at Dreamodel—from the office staff to the builders—was friendly, helpful, and patient throughout the entire process. We would absolutely work with them again on any future projects.

From the moment I contacted Dreamodel about our porch and deck project I was impressed. Within a few hours, a salesman, Darren, contacted me, and set up an appointment for the next morning. He appeared on time, listened to our vision for our project, took our written wish list seriously, and discussed options. He also noted a serious framing problem with our existing porch, and proposed a quick fix to bring it up to code.

The morning after we first met, Darren had produced a detailed proposal, which he then went over with me so that I understood exactly what was included. He invited us to the Dreamodel showroom which was built out with many of the products Dreamodel uses for their porch and deck projects. My husband and I were able to pick and choose among the products, quality, and materials. If something wasn't on display in the showroom, Darren found it for us. The biggest challenge was finding the right door for the porch. We wanted a double screen door from the existing screened porch to the new deck. Darren never gave up on that door, and finally found the perfect, though pricey option. We went for it and couldn't be happier.

Within a week of our first contact, we had negotiated a fixed price contract, including clearly marked estimates for specific line items like the door that might change during the course of the project. In the end, the project came in within two hundred dollars of the contract amount, and we have exactly what we wanted. The craftmanship and materials are top quality, the design is beautiful, and the process was transparent.

We were particularly impressed by several things we'd never encountered before, even though we've dealt with contractors many times in the past. First, Darren's bid was broken down into discreet subprojects such as demolition, construction of the new deck, and renovation of the existing porch, with each sub-project line item including labor and materials so we could pick and choose what we had to have and what we could do without. Second, Darren's bid was the lowest of six that we got -- in two cases, less than 35% of the highest bids -- yet there were no shortcuts, and the quality was impeccable. Third, there were no surprises. Darren stayed with the project throughout, and was always available to answer questions. He came to the job site nearly every day, and was our main point of contact throughout the project. Having the salesperson intimately involved with all phases of the project is a unique approach, and worked extremely well for us.

It is rare to choose the lowest bidder on a project, and be completely happy with the results, but that is what we experienced with Dreamodel, Darren, and the Dreamodel crew.

We had a great experience from start to finish with a deck & concrete patio. Darren was responsive, answered my questions, and delivered a great product. dREamodel does not cut corners, they do not cheap out, and they only work with individuals who they trust. Could we have possibly found a lower quote? Possibly. However, for us, it was worth the cost to go with a trusted, reliable company…especially with this investment. Totally recommend!

Darren was the catalyst that got us us interested in dREmodel for replacing our cedar deck. Without his engagement we would never had gone ahead and spent on a new composite deck. His guidance was expertly spot on. He brought his A team and they had most everything done in three hard days of work. It's a beautiful product, Dekorator brand, suggested by Darren. The Sedona color makes the black railings really stand out. Matt had to cut 23 step stringers by hand. It looks great! Love it! A couple concerns we're taken care of immediately and to my satisfaction. I am picky. Thanks Darren, Matt, John and crew for a beautiful deck, and for making my life easier. I don't have to power wash or get on my hands and knees to stain any more!.

We had a great experience with Darren and his crew. They built a deck, did stamp concrete, and got us an electrician for our hotub. The backyard has become a place of peace. We really enjoy the beauty and workmanship dREamodel provided!

Planning a Deck or Porch Project?

A new outdoor living space comes with a lot of decisions, and the right answers depend on your home, your property, and how you want to use the space. dREamodel helps homeowners think through the details early so the finished project feels comfortable, intentional, and built for long-term use.

Materials That Fit Minnesota Homes

Composite decking, wood decking, railings, windows, screens, and finish materials all affect how the space looks, feels, and performs over time.

The Right Porch for Your Lifestyle

A screened porch, porch enclosure, or four-season porch can each offer a different level of comfort, protection, and year-round use.

A Layout That Works Every Day

Stairs, traffic flow, furniture zones, grilling areas, shade, privacy, and access to the yard all shape how often you use the space.

Project Timeline & Permits

Our team helps clarify what needs to happen before work begins, from design decisions and scheduling to permitting and construction planning.
