We are a couple who doesn’t mind doing the work ourselves as much as possible to save money, but some things we cannot do. We’ve done several projects down on the patio since we’ve been here including the DIY rock wall, the aluminum under deck ceiling, and the new DIY faux tile floor. We began to think about what we could do here and decided that since we have that huge patio down below and the ceiling is 8′ tall, it would make a great space to screen in for shade from the sun.
I so enjoyed the porch at my other house. We’ve still got a master bathroom that we want to improve, which is going to be costly and there are several more projects inside and out that we will want to spend money on, so an upper deck screen porch was not going to happen in this house. We have to choose the projects that will give us the most return for our money. That would be a bare bones porch.įor us, since we are getting closer to retirement, we just don’t have that kind of money in the budget to do a project like this. That’s a low estimate and I know many screen porches cost much more than that. I had a quick ballpark estimate from a company that was out here doing something else for me and he said it would cost at least $15K to add a screen porch,which is what I figured anyway. I knew from experience that adding a roof and screening is like adding a new room so it would be very costly. That’s ideal because you can just walk outside the kitchen and have a covered porch. We’ve been in our house for two years now and the first thing I thought of when we moved in was adding a screen porch up above on the deck. This was definitely a project for the professionals. I’m still pinching myself that I had the opportunity to collaborate with them on this backyard project of ours.
Hi friends! It’s another exciting day around here and I’m sharing how adding motorized Phantom Screens has completely changed the way we are going to live in our backyard. Excitement, joy and pinch me moments are all mine! This post is sponsored by Phantom Screens.
