Planning Your Porch Addition
Porches are a wonderful addition to any home, but there are factors you should consider before jumping into this kind of project. Asking yourself these questions will help eliminate the headaches that an additional project can cause.
Factors to consider when adding a porch to your home include:
- Permits: Is a permit required before starting? This can vary based on where you live, so it’s important to check with your town before getting started. Our team can help handle any permit requirements to ensure a seamless and stress-free process.
- Purpose: Morning coffee, quiet reading, weekend gatherings. Purpose shapes layout, lighting, and seating.
- Size and structure: Front porches tend to be smaller than back or screened-in designs. We verify loads, connections, and footing depth so custom built porches are safe and solid.
- Materials: At Deck Plus, we offer both composite and wood materials. Composite decks use a calculated mixture of wood fibers and plastic. They’re almost indistinguishable from wood, are extremely durable, and require less maintenance. However, we also offer a range of wood options that offer a timeless look and natural durability.
- Budget: The cost of a porch can vary significantly depending on the size, design, location, and materials. On average, a porch installation project can be anywhere from $5,000 to $20,000. Contact Deck Plus for a free estimate on your custom porch addition.
