These homeowners were looking to upgrade their home entrance!
Our team designed and built a functional front porch, adding curb appeal to this Dartmouth home.
Before the construction of this project could begin, our team worked on the design, material selection, and gathered the required documents and building permits for this front porch. Once the construction plans were finalized, we were able to begin the demolition of the existing front step structure. We then used machinery to excavate post locations to frost protection per code and poured concrete footings 48" deep.
We supplied and installed brown oak TimberTech composite decking complete with stairs, skirting, and TimberTech Builder railing. 72-inch-wide TimberTech Terrain composite stairs were fastened with stainless steel colour-matching screws. We built closed risers and bolted attachment to the deck frame. For the skirting and trim, we used solid vertical TimberTech Terrain composite boarding.
A new gable roof complete with asphalt shingles, arched composite ceiling, fascia, and painted PVC-clad support columns was installed. We also replaced the front entry door and expanded the existing exposed aggregate driveway as per design.
