"Engstrom Landscaping will exceed your expectations for any project you envision. Rob completed a fire pit for us and refreshed previous landscaping he had done. This is the second project we have worked on with Rob and his brother Dave. His attention to detail, professionalism and project management are exceptional. Project completion has always been timely and he is clear on scheduling. Rob's extensive experience allowed him to take our vision and suggest creative improvements. We are thrilled with the result."

"I would highly recommend Highpoint Poroperties for your landscaping projects. Gunner and his whole crew were great to work with. My neighbors even commented on how happy and polite they are were, despite lugging countless wheelbarrows full of rocks around our yard. Gunner communicated well and they were no “surprises”, which seems rare nowadays when dealing with a contractor. I highly recommend and I would use them again in a heartbeat."

Patios FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, porches require foundations. The type of foundation required, however, is determined by the type and use of the porch. For example, a screened-in porch won’t require a new cement foundation. However, if you turn your porch into a sunroom or plan on making it a living space, then chances are you need a foundation that’s more permanent than piers and posts. 

Several types of porches are available to meet your needs and style preferences. Some common porch types include:

  • Porticos are essentially a roof over a walkway leading to the home's front entrance. 

  • Sunrooms are closed-in porches that are an extension of the house with glass or plastic panels that allow optimal sunlight. 

  • Wraparound porches extend around the entire home, or at least the front and one side, and offer multiple entrances to the house.

  • Back porches are an extension of the home’s floor into the outdoors. These offer more protection and privacy than a deck.

Whether it's better to add a sunroom or a regular room to your home depends on your goals. If you need extra bedrooms, building rooms with four standard walls makes more sense than adding a sunroom. If you don't need extra sleeping areas but would like to expand the living space of your home, a sunroom makes sense.

A screened-in porch can add value to your home, with a potential return on investment (ROI) of 70% to 84%. The actual value added depends heavily on several factors. Climate is a major consideration; homes in warm, humid, or buggy areas (like the Southern regions) see the highest ROI. In colder climates, the value is diminished as the unconditioned space is unusable for much of the year. Other factors that influence the return include the quality of materials and construction, the size of the porch, and the local real estate market. While a screened-in porch can enhance curb appeal and attract potential buyers, it is not included in the home's total square footage for appraisal purposes.

A well-constructed and well-maintained sunroom can last as long as the rest of your house. If you build the sunroom to the same standards using the same quality materials as the house and perform regular maintenance to ensure the room stays in top condition, it can bring you decades of enjoyment.
