This is a typical range, not a quote. The sections below explain what moves the price for this job. The dot marks the middle price, and a + means some businesses charge more.
What the job involves
A screened porch has a floor, a roof and walls of screen set in a frame, with a screen door out to the yard. The floor can be a new deck frame or an existing deck or patio, and the roof usually joins the house, so the job mixes deck building, framing and roofing.
It differs from a covered porch, which has the roof but open sides, and from a sunroom, which closes the walls with glass and is used more like a room of the house.
Many screened porches end up with a ceiling fan and lights. Wiring for them is electrical work, usually quoted by an electrician rather than the builder.
What moves the price
- Knee walls and kick plates
- A short wall or a kick plate along the bottom of the screens protects them from pets and furniture, and it adds framing and trim.
- Screen mesh type
- Heavier pet-resistant mesh, or a finer mesh that stops tiny biting insects, costs more than standard screening.
- Doors and steps
- Each screen door needs framing, hardware and steps down to the yard, so a second door raises the price.
- Floor finish
- Plain treated decking costs less than tongue and groove porch flooring, tile on a slab or a painted floor coating.
- Drawings for the roof
- A porch roof that joins an existing roof line may need drawings that show the framing, which some builders price on top.
Getting a quote
Questions to ask each deck builder before you compare prices:
- Is this price for a new floor, or for screening in my existing deck or patio?
- What type of screen mesh is included, and what would pet-resistant mesh add?
- How many screen doors does the price include, and what kind of closer do they have?
- Will the porch roof tie into the house roof, and who matches the roofing?
- Is a finished ceiling included, and who handles wiring for a fan and lights?
