At DW Decks, we’ve noticed a growing trend: homeowners in Kansas City are choosing screened porches to enhance their outdoor living spaces. With sprawling suburbs and mature trees, our area provides a stunning natural environment, but the intense sun and bothersome insects often make it challenging to enjoy. A screened porch is the perfect solution, providing both protection and comfort while extending the functionality of your home.
Screened porches have become a staple in almost all new homes in Kansas City. Whether you’re building a new home or upgrading an existing deck, a screened porch offers year-round usability, especially with the addition of infrared heaters or gas fireplaces. These structures provide a seamless extension of your home, offering a space that can be enjoyed even in cooler months.
While a screened porch is a larger investment than an uncovered deck, the return on investment makes it well worth it. More homeowners are recognizing the long-term value of a screened porch, not just for their family’s enjoyment but also for increasing their home’s appeal.
At DW Decks, we’ve found that homeowners often face unique challenges when designing their screened porches. One common issue is grilling: most people want a safe and convenient outdoor cooking area without compromising the porch’s roof structure. Our solution? We design small bump-outs or uncovered areas adjacent to the screened porch, creating the perfect spot for grilling without requiring trips down to a patio—especially helpful for elevated porches.
We also tailor each screened porch to the architecture of your home. Whether it’s integrating rooflines or creating a unified look with uncovered areas, we ensure that your screened porch blends beautifully with your home while meeting all functional needs.
Screened porches go beyond a simple outdoor upgrade. Here are the key advantages:
