A screened in porch is an ideal addition to any home because it provides a comfortable retreat from the outside world. It also offers privacy and protection from harsh weather elements. They're also an affordable way to add extra living space to your home.

Choose from a variety of classic and modern styles.

First, let’s talk about design.

Decide whether you want a traditional or more contemporary design for your new screened-in outdoor living area.

Traditional porches tend to be larger than contemporary porches. They usually have large picture windows and sliding glass doors. Contemporary porches typically have smaller windows and sliding glass doors, as well as decorative screens.

Whichever design you choose, you’ll want to install energy-efficient windows to ensure your screened porch stays comfortable and cost-effective all year long.

Finally, you should determine what kind of screen will work best for your screened in porch. You want to let in maximum sunshine while protecting you and your family from insects and pests, so this is an important choice. Porch screens come in many different colors and strengths for different applications.

Choose your window size and the type of screen that suits your needs.

There are two main types of screens: vinyl and aluminum.

Vinyl screens are made of plastic mesh and aluminum screens are made of metal mesh. Aluminum screens are often preferred by homeowners who live in colder climates. Vinyl screens are generally preferred by homeowners who live where temperatures are warmer.

We also need to decide how much light you want to let into your porch. This decision depends on the location of your porch.

Southern exposures get the most amount of sunlight, while porches on the north side of your home are shaded most of the day.

Screened porches with an eastern exposure get morning sun, and stay shaded during the hottest part of the day, while porches on the west side of your home have wonderful sunset views.
