[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s that they don’t want the small jobs. The cost to get all their stuff on site and order materials is the same for your porch and a full house. But the revenue to them is far greater for the full house. So they charge a premium for the small addition to make it worth their time. [/quote] Does that mean it would be cheaper if done along with a larger addition/renovation?[/quote] Yes, when we built our new home a few years a go it only cost 14k to add a 35 x 12 screen porch. The most expensive part was the 8k retractable screens[/quote] That's why it blows my mind that every new house here doesn't have a screened in porch. Would be a great selling point with all the mosquitoes. [/quote]
