Cost to build Screene in Porches

Major factors that influence the cost of a screened in porch are the location of the house, the types of materials that are selected and the features that will be incorporated into the porch. Also, if the designated area for the new porch currently has a deck or other feature, the costs will include the removal. Naturally, the cost increases with the desired square feet of the screened in porch.

  • The cost of materials for a basic 200 square feet screened in porch on an existing deck in most urban areas should run between $470 and $680, with an installation cost between $296 and $345.
  • The total cost for a basic 200 square feet screened in porch will range from $766 to $1,025 or an average cost of $4.48/ square feet.
  • The cost of materials for a top-of-the-line screened in porch on an existing deck runs between $860 and $1,070, with an installation cost between $297 and $304.
  • The total cost for a screened in porch on an existing deck will be between $1,157 and $1,374 or an average cost of $6.33/ square feet.

Of course, the construction of a completely new screened in porch without an existing deck is much more expensive. If a consumer is able to build the porch on an existing wooden or concrete deck, this will likely save a minimum of $1,000. As with the rest of the construction, the size of the porch and quality of selected materials determine the actual cost savings. For instance, a wrap-around porch that contains windows and screens can run up to a maximum of $30,000.

A typical construction estimate for an entirely new screened in porch is about $70/ square feet. Therefore, a basic porch (8 x 10 feet) with a roof and screen measuring at 80 square feet would start at $5,600. The porch design adds anywhere from $2,000 to $3,000 to the cost, and all homeowners should budget anywhere from $200 to $300 for the permits and city or county inspections. Keep in mind, if adding features such as fans, lighting, tiling, fireplaces and vaulted ceilings, the price increases considerably.

In order to lower the cost of any home remodeling project, especially in the screening porch project, these are some actions that can be done to cut price down:

  • Remove the old porch or deck by do-it-yourself projects
  • Add the screens by do-it-yourself projects
  • Limit the extra accessories
  • Get bids from multiple contractors
  • Hire a pro in the fall or winter
  • Apply for any permits yourself
  • Help with the project

 

Screene in Porches

 

All screen in porches come with very apparent advantages. First and primary, screened in porches allow to enjoy the outdoor seating area if it’s raining or is enormously hot. Furthermore, they also detract flies and other insects. With a properly constructed screen in porch, the weather should not be the main concern including during the winter.

Furthermore, screened porches raise the rate of the house and can help it sell quicker. Bear in mind, adding a new porch or any its addition, make sure that it blends in with the rest of the home. If the design fails and the addition is rather noticeable, then the addition may not have the much value as expected. Finally, compared to patio enclosures, screened in porches are inexpensive. Also, compared to full additions, the cost is far less costly. Overall, screens increase the utility of the porch and can immensely advance the entertainment value of the porch.
