Porch Replacement & Repair

Blackdog Home Services can help you create the front entry of your dreams with a new porch! Porches are structures traditionally found on the front of a house, unlike decks, which are similar to porches but are uncovered and on the rear of the house.

There are many different types of porches. With the different styles and constructions, you can find a porch that suits your aesthetic and needs:

• Porticos: A portico is a small front porch. Its main function is to give shelter from the elements as you, your family, and visitors enter your home. Modern porticos can include benches and other architectural elements.
• Covered porches: This style is what most people think of when they hear the word “porch.” Its roof offers some protection from the sun and rain, but its sides are open, allowing for an unobstructed view and breeze.
• Screened porches: A screened porch creates more of a room-like feel. It has a traditional roof, offering protection from the weather. The sides of the porch are constructed of screens, which can prevent bugs, creatures, and some of the elements from entering your porch.
• Wraparound porches: A wraparound porch is often the largest porch type. It’s like a traditional porch, but instead of only being on the front side of the house, it continues around one or both sides.
