How much would it cost to build a covered porch?

Custom Covered Porches

If you’re thinking of adding a covered porch to your home, you might wonder what it will cost. At Archadeck of Chicagoland, we specialize in designing custom outdoor living spaces that fit your home’s style, budget, and expectations. The cost to build a covered porch can vary based on several factors, but our projects typically start at around $45,000 and go up from there.

Here are some of the factors that affect the cost of building a covered porch

Porch Size affects the cost

Starting with the most obvious, the size of your porch will play a major role in the cost. We typically determine the perfect size porch based on your functional needs. If you’re looking for lounge space, a dining area, and extra seating, you will need a bigger porch than those looking for a bistro table and a lounge chair. Archadeck pairs you with one of our design consultants to help you design a porch fit for your home and family.

Custom features

The complexity of your porch design impacts the overall cost. Of course, design can be subjective but adding features like wrapped posts, windows, rooflines, sq footage, and electrical will increase the price. Custom elements are a choice and your design consultant will work with you to determine what features work best with what you’re looking for and your budget.Top of FormBottom of Form The materials you choose will impact the price. Higher-end materials like composite decking, premium wood, or certain roofing will increase the overall cost, while basic wood or asphalt shingles may be more budget-friendly.
