Benefits of a Porch Extension

Enhanced Curb Appeal: With added style and design to your home, a new porch will provide you with increased curb appeal. This bench will adapt to your home style, traditional, modern or anything in between.

A good return on investment: The extension of a porch is small compared to other home improvements and can be repaid in full when you sell your house. A functional and aesthetically-pleasing porch may make your home more attractive to potential buyers.

More Storage Space: Perhaps one of the most useful things about a porch extension is simply gaining more room to store everything. The perfect spot for coats, shoes, umbrellas and all the muck we wear on our feet..it also keeps your home clutter free!

Protection from the elements outside: It acts as a barrier between external factors and your home. It prevents rain, wind and snow to enter your home making it easier for you to come in or leave the premises.

Energy Saving: Adding a porch gives homeowners an added layer of insulation between the inside of your home and the outside world. This may help reduce heat loss and make your home more energy-efficient, especially during the colder months.

Added Security: You will have an additional layer to protect against anyone who may try and break into your home. It can be fitted with safe doors and windows, which adds an extra layer of deterrence for prospective burglars.

Types of Porch Extensions

Porch extensions are available in many types and sizes, so you can choose the one that best represents your home along with personal choices.

Open Porch: Roofs on open porches are supported by columns or posts, but they do afford some shelter from the rain while leaving you wide open to feeling as if you’re outside. This porch is a great solution for forming the first impression and you can decorate it with furniture, plants, even some decor pieces.

Enclosed Porch: In general an enclosed type of porch is built more as a barrier from the weather in mind, it will tend to blend and flow with your inside home. And with the walls and windows, it functions like a small add-on to your living space — great as a mudroom or for extra storage.

Front Porch: The extension to the front porch is one of the most popular, and it improves your house’s entry. You can style it to complement the house, on a basic level covered porch and in more intricate forms carved-in seating or decorative pieces.

Side Porch:  Side porch is another typically unappreciated space if your home has a side entrance. It creates a secure portal that can be employed as an entry point for deliveries or additional area in the side garden.
