WAG Screened-In Porch

14 years ago

Can someone give me a WAG for a screened-in porch addition. Assume average cost region, deck/wood flooring, about 10X15. Archadeck ad in local paper says "enclosures" as low as $7000.

Wild Ass Guess. Not to be confused with a SWAG (Scientific Wild Ass Guess). Those are much more precise. :-)

You may need to get an architect involved. Tacking something -- well -- tacky onto a nice house can actually diminish its value. If done right, it will add to it.

A screened porch done right looks like it was part of the original design. Done wrong, it will just look done wrong.
