Houston-Sugar-Land Texas Screened Rooms Contractors Porches Builders Enclosed Decks Cost

Adding a Touch of Light

Because ceiling fans are standard in screened porches throughout Texas, You may opt to combine a pair of inexpensive chandeliers with a ceiling fan. The elegant fixtures create a soft light above both conversation areas and contribute to the cozy atmosphere. (Tip: Consult a lighting professional before wiring decorative fixtures in exposed areas.)

Details Make the Difference


Accessories give this screened porch the look of a completed family room. From the mirror flanked by pretty plates to the decorative wall brackets, the homeowners reused many items they already had.

Plants, which add a punch of color, function almost as draperies would in an interior room. In fact, most of the plants were transplanted to decorative pots from the yard.


GET THE LOOK


* Invest in water-resistant fabrics. The options available offer durability without sacrificing style.

* Slip-covering existing furniture is a great way to get extra mileage out of it.

* Get creative with accessories. A mirror and plates bring an unexpected surprise to an outdoor room.

* Lighting can add a magical touch, especially when you use lamps that give off a soft glow.

* Don't be afraid to incorporate colors and items thought to be only for indoors.


 

Houston-Sugar-Land Texas Porch Options



Studio roof


A studio roof is a single slopped roofline that will add a more uniformed elevation to the appearance inside the room. The studio roof is a more economical roof style, which may blend better on some houses then other more expensive roof styles.



 

Cathedral roof


A cathedral (or gabled) roof adds interest by providing an elevated peak to the center of the roof. This roofline has two sections, sloping to each side of the porch. On the inside, it adds additional height, creating a larger feel to the room. This is the most popular roof style for screened porches.


 

Hip roof


The hip roof is very similar to the cathedral roof with one slight difference. This roofline adds one more additional slope to the front of the porch creating three slopes to the roofline.



 

Skylights


Skylights will add more light to, as well as better views from your screened porch. There should be consideration to the amount the roof slopes when adding skylights so that leaking does not become an issue. Skylights can be ordered as either operable (ones that open for more ventilation) or inoperable (fixed and non-opening).



 

Electrical
When adding a screened porch to any house, the intended use is important to consider. Most people add a ceiling fan as a way to help circulate the air as well as outlets for floor lamps to increase additional lighting options inside the room. Depending on county codes, you may be required to have a light near the door on the outside of the room that is either motion sensitive or connected to a switch.

Fireplaces

A gas or wood-burning fireplace will ensure the room is comfortable on chilly spring and fall evenings. During cooler weather also extend the screen room's use. However, they can limit design possibilities. In a room with only screens, you aren't leimitd by window sizes and can use larger pieces of screening. This provides more of an outdoor feeling, but the trade-off is less refined, all-weather furniture and more dirt and dust.

 

Entertaining

A screened room for entertaining, for example, may require a fireplace and wide-screen TV, stereo surround sound, larger seating area, and a popcorn maker!

Enclosed Screen Porch Ideas

Enclosing a porch with a screen is a great way to enjoy an outdoor space through the entire year. It will keep you out of the elements and free from bug attacks. There are a number of elements to consider when creating an enclosed screen porch to make it a tranquil retreat that invites everyone to enjoy.

Creating Useful Space


Houston-Sugar-Land Texas Screened porches are a great way to increase the space of an interior dining area. If you have sliding glass doors that open to a porch from your dining room, you can enclose this to make semi-outdoor eating areas free from flies and mosquitoes.

Create a sun room kids can get fresh air all day, regardless of rain or sun. Screened porches make great playrooms to hold toys and games, even video games if the roof and flooring are water-tight.

If you are an artist looking for a spot that has lots of light, inspirational views and fresh air, an enclosed patio is a perfect option. You can gaze from the porch to the sunset while capturing it with your paintbrushes.

 

Design Ideas


Consider where the door is that leads from the porch to the inside of the home. A door at the corner of the porch can reduce the usable space of the porch because you need to allow clear entry and exit.

A vaulted ceiling would make the room seem larger, opening it up not just to the landscape but upwards to the sky. You may also want to add a quiet ceiling fan to circulate air during days when there is no wind.

Front porches are great locations for a porch swing. You can also keep delicate potted herbs on a front porch away from harsh sunlight.
Construction
If you are enclosing a wooden deck porch, remember that any cracks or grooves in the flooring will allow insects to crawl up.

You can place a screen from top to bottom or create a series of panels that create a wall. This may be waist-high with screen going to the ceiling. Creating nice frames for the screen to keep it taught.

If you are building a a porch from scratch, think about the furniture you want to put there and the activities the porch will serve. Create a porch large enough to not seem cluttered.
