Front Porch Building Materials

new front porchWhen building a new front porch, there are several materials that are commonly used. The choice of material depends on various factors, like budget, the desired look, and the durability of the material. Here are some of the more popular materials for a front porch.

Concrete: Concrete is the most affordable option and requires the least amount of maintenance. However, it may have a cookie-cutter look simply due to the limited color and pattern options available. Poured concrete is prone to cracking when exposed to freezing and thawing cycles.

Wood: Using wood is the classic choice for a porch. It offers a natural look and allows for simple customization through the use of painting. And it is relatively affordable and easy to install. However, unlike concrete, it requires regular maintenance in order to keep it in good shape.

Composite Boards: Composite boards are made from a blend of wood fibers and plastic and are more expensive than using wood. However, composite boards require less maintenance due to a higher durability. And they are also rot resistant and impossible for insects to infiltrate it. So you do get a little more security with the higher costs.

Pavers: A paver offers more flexibility in achieving the custom look that many Long Island homeowners would want. There are a wide range of shapes, sizes, and colors when choosing pavers that allow for great customization of the porch, as well as the patio and any walkways. In term of price, pavers are an average price making it a popular option.
