Screened Porches

Screened porches and screen rooms that keep bugs out and let breezes in, with durable framing, screen systems and finished floors.

Tennessee summers bring humidity, mosquitoes and the occasional cicada, and a screened porch lets you enjoy the evening without the bugs. It is an outdoor room that works from spring through fall, and many owners use it more than any other room in the house. Nashville homeowners add screened porches to the back of the house, above garages and over existing decks.

Your designer plans the size, roof, doors and flooring and how the porch meets the house. The crew builds the structure, installs roofing and ceilings, sets screen panels or a spline-and-frame system and finishes the floor in wood, composite, tile or concrete. The scope covers the screen type, door hardware, lighting, fans and permits, so you know what to expect.

Screen systems

Fiberglass, aluminum and pet-resistant screens each have different looks and strengths, and we explain what suits your use.

Structure and roof

A screened porch needs a solid roof, posts and a floor that drains, and we build them to match the style of the house.

Comfortable floors

Wood, composite, tile and sealed concrete all work, and the choice affects upkeep and how the room feels.

Doors, lights and fans

A good door latch, soft lighting and ceiling fans make the room comfortable at night and in the heat.

Questions

Screened Porches FAQ

What is the difference between a screened porch and an enclosed patio?

A screened porch has screen walls and is open to air, and an enclosed patio has windows or panels to close it in. We explain both.

Can a screened porch be used in winter?

With heaters or removable panels it can be used on mild days, and many owners enjoy it most of the year.

How do I keep screens clean?

Soft brushing and a hose are usually enough, and we share simple tips.

Can I convert my deck into a screened porch?

Often yes, if the deck structure can carry the load, and your designer checks the framing.

Do screened porches need permits?

Usually yes. We help you prepare and you confirm locally.
