[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m having a screened porch built. I interviewed 2 builders that friends in my neighborhood used and picked one. I would ask around your neighborhood. [/quote]

Not OP, but how is the design going on this? Are you doing any storage underneath? We’re thinking about adding one to our larger project- the architect drew up a design but it’s been hard trying to find examples and decide on details (finishes, color, final size).[/quote]

I'm the PP.  I'm paying $77K for a 14x20 screened porch (trex, with 2 skylights) and a patio.  I think you could subtract $10K out of the total for the patio if you just want the porch price.  If I didn't do a screened in porch, I think I could have done a new deck for $25-35K.

I didn't hire a separate architect but both builders made design proposals to me.  I didn't use the cheapest builders where I had to come up with the plan - I used somewhat higher end ones that had this design capacity.     [/quote]

How long did it take them to build the screened porch?[/quote]

I think they said 3-4 weeks. It’s happening now! [/quote]
