Tell us about your home and how you want to use your front porch, and we’ll put a written estimate together.
Curb Appeal & Value
A front porch is one of the highest-impact additions you can make — it transforms your home’s curb appeal, creates a welcoming spot to relax, and adds usable, valuable living space at the entry. Whether you’re replacing a small stoop or adding a full covered front porch, the right design makes your home feel complete.
As your local porch builder, we handle every step of the addition — design, foundation and footings, framing, columns, roofing, flooring, and railings — using quality materials built to withstand Colorado’s sun, snow, and freeze-thaw seasons. We build to local code and can advise on any permits your project requires.
Front Porch Styles
Every home is different, so we design each front porch around your style, entry, and budget — built to last in Colorado’s climate.
A roofed front porch adds shade, weather protection, and year-round curb appeal. We match the roofline, columns, and finishes to your home for a seamless, built-in look.
An open front porch or expanded entry brings fresh air, natural light, and a classic welcome. Ideal for morning coffee and greeting guests without a full roof structure.
A traditional farmer’s porch adds country charm with sturdy columns and a deep, covered spot to relax. We match the columns, railings, and trim to your home’s style.
Ideal for farmhouse and Victorian homes, a wrap-around porch extends along the front and sides for extra space and standout curb appeal — we recommend 6–8 feet deep for comfort.
A portico or small entry porch frames your front door, adds shelter, and boosts curb appeal — a high-impact addition for homes that need a defined, welcoming entrance.
The details make the porch. We design and build columns, railings, balusters, and steps that match your home’s architecture and meet current building codes for safe, lasting access.

Budget
Every front porch is quoted individually. The biggest factors are the porch’s size and depth, whether it’s open or covered, the required foundation, your flooring and railing materials, columns, and any roofing or custom features. Tell us about your home and how you’ll use the space, and we’ll prepare a clear, written estimate — no guesswork, no pressure.
One variable moves front porch addition cost more than most people expect: what’s already at your entry. Replacing a small stoop is a different job from building over bare ground, and an existing slab may or may not be usable. We check that on site before pricing anything.

Good to Know
A front porch addition adds a new covered or open porch to the front of your home — including the foundation, framing, columns, roofing (if covered), flooring, and railings. It’s a popular way to boost curb appeal, add usable space, and increase home value.
It depends on the size and depth, whether it’s open or covered, the required foundation, and your material choices for flooring, columns, roofing, and railings. We provide a clear, written quote after we assess your home and entry — no dollar guessing up front.
Yes — a well-built front porch is one of the highest-impact exterior additions for curb appeal and buyer interest. It adds usable, welcoming space at the entry and helps your home stand out, especially in Colorado’s family-home neighborhoods.
A simple open porch or portico may take one to two weeks, while a larger covered or wrap-around porch can take several weeks depending on design and materials. Weather and material availability can affect the schedule — we provide an accurate timeline up front.
An open porch offers fresh air, light, and a classic look at a lower cost. A covered porch adds shade, weather protection, and year-round use, and ties into your roofline. We’ll help you weigh curb appeal, use, and budget for your home.
For comfortable seating and a welcoming feel, we typically recommend a depth of at least 6 to 8 feet. The right size depends on your home’s proportions, entry, and how you’ll use the space — we’ll help you plan a porch that’s balanced and functional.
It depends on porch size and soil. Concrete slabs suit ground-level porches; piers or footings support raised porches and prevent settling. In Colorado, set footings below the frost line to avoid shifting. We recommend the right foundation for your build.
Sometimes. It depends on the slab’s condition, size, and whether it meets code for what you’re building on top of it. We inspect it first and tell you honestly whether it can be used or whether new footings will give you a safer, longer-lasting porch. This is usually the single biggest variable in the quote.
Usually, yes — front porch additions involve structural and often roofing work that typically requires permits and inspections. As your licensed local contractor, we build to local code and can advise on the permits your project requires to stay compliant.
