On a spring morning in Ankeny, you might want to sit outside with a cup of coffee and listen to the birds. In the summer, it’s the perfect place to host a backyard cookout. And in fall, it’s where you can watch the leaves change without needing a jacket. That’s why porches are such a smart investment here—they let you enjoy the outdoors through every season.
Whether you want to enjoy the breeze on a summer evening or extend your time outdoors during cooler months, porches offer flexible, comfortable living space right at home. As your local Ankeny porch builder, we help bring those ideas to life—whether you want a covered open-air porch or something more enclosed.

From Open-Air to Enclosed: Porch Options for Every Season
A covered porch gives you the basics: shade, shelter, and an inviting space to sit, relax, and enjoy the outdoors. But if you want more protection from the elements, we can build a screened porch or even a fully enclosed space.
As your Ankeny screened in porch builder, we use high-quality materials built for Iowa’s climate, and we offer upgrades that can extend the usability of a traditional screened porch and 3-season room. Our team installs ScreenEze for screened porches and Expanse retractable glass panel windows—a step up from poly systems—so you get real glass, better insulation, and more versatility for 3 season rooms. When opened, these windows function like screens; when closed, they help lock in comfort for use during cooler months.
No matter the season, we can help you choose the right option for your home and your lifestyle. As an experienced Ankeny porch builder, we guide you through every step—from choosing between open-air and enclosed options to deciding on finishes and upgrades.
