Factors Impacting the Cost of Building a Screened Porch
A number of items go into determining the cost of building a screened porch in Kildeer, IL. From the design of the screened porch to the electrical work, many decisions influence the overall price of the project.
Deck or Patio Design
Screened Porches can be built over patios or decks. However, if building on a deck the deck needs to be built to support the weight of the screened porch. So this impacts the total cost of building a screened porch. Typically, an existing deck isn’t built to support a screened porch unless it was preplanned. The size also plays a role in the price. Large, complex designs require more time and materials, so homeowners should expect to pay more for them.
Roof Styles
Homeowners can choose from different roof styles, including gabled and hip roofs. Some are more intricate than others, so they will increase expenses. Existing roof lines, windows, existing skylights, bump out areas such as bay windows and many other factors must be considered. Whereas single slope roofs tend to be the most budget friendly, Hip roofs cost significantly more. Not to mention, the type of roofing material customers select will also affect the total cost of the project.
Height
The height of the screened porch and/or deck will also play a huge factor in the overall cost. The higher the porch is off the ground the more it will cost. This should come as no surprise, as building a higher screened porch requires more materials, equipment, and labor. Therefore, customers end up paying more money for a screened-in porch on a second story than they would for a ground-level porch. It’s also important to note that different municipalities have different safety requirements and building codes, in some cases are required to have an architect.
Ceiling Finishes
Cedar Tongue and Groove or PVC BeadBoard are popular choices but can be costly. Some customers choose to go with more of a farmhouse look with exposed rafters to make the ceiling the star of the show. With many styles and options the ceiling of a screened porch really sets the mood and gives the wow factor of your screened porch.
Electric
From lighting, to maybe a tv or even electric heaters for those warm chilly nights adding electricity is an important thing to think about when planning your screened porch build. A Screened Porch is an extended space to your home. Its purpose isn’t only to enjoy during the day but also to enjoy at night.
Material Selections
The type of materials used in a project is another huge factor impacting the cost. Fortunately, there are a wide variety of options, so customers can easily choose something that they love and that compliments your home.
Other Options
