What are the different types of porches?

• <div><p>Several <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-porch.htm">types of porches</a> are available to meet your needs and style preferences. Some common porch types include:</p><ul><li><p><b>Porticos</b> are essentially a roof over a walkway leading to the home's front entrance. </p></li><li><p><b>Sunrooms </b>are closed-in porches that are an extension of the house with glass or plastic panels that allow optimal sunlight. </p></li><li><p><b>Wraparound porches</b> extend around the entire home, or at least the front and one side, and offer multiple entrances to the house.</p></li><li><p><b>Back porches </b>are an extension of the home’s floor into the outdoors. These offer more protection and privacy than a deck.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Can my deck support a sunroom?

• <div><p>Even if your deck is properly constructed with a solid foundation, it doesn’t always mean it can handle the extra weight of a sunroom. Always call in a structural engineer to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-often-should-i-inspect-my-deck.htm">perform a deck inspection</a> to evaluate the quality and structural integrity of the deck before building. You may need to reinforce the foundations and joists, and with decks in poor condition, it might be better to tear them down and start again. A pro can help you decide.</p></div>

Q: Why does my deck pop in extreme cold?

• <div><p>Cold temperatures can make your deck boards contract. If they don&rsquo;t contract evenly, they can put pressure on the deck screws and cause them to pop out, making a noticeable sound. Winterizing your deck can help prevent this from happening. </p></div>

Q: What ruins composite decking?

• <div><p>Although composite decking is extremely durable, it&rsquo;s also susceptible to extreme heat. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading, warping, and cracking. Composite also retains heat more than wood, which makes it dangerous to walk on in the summer. You can help prevent heat damage by only building with composite in shaded areas or using rugs to cover the hottest spots. </p></div>

Q: Where can I get new porch columns?

• <div><p>If your contractor isn't sourcing your new porch columns for you, you can find them at your local home improvement store or hardware store. You can also order them online for delivery. If you want a unique look or want to save some money, you can also source porch columns from auctions and restore them before having them installed. </p></div>
