Front Porch Renovation Project

Before and after images of a front porch renovation project we completed today! Wood columns and railing were badly deteriorated and had created an unsafe environment for these neighbours. Work began by replacing a rotten structural wood post located within the shared column, as it had been installed directly onto the surface of the porch and had been exposed to water for years. We replaced with a pressure treated 4" x 4" post with a Simpson Strong-Tie ABA ZMAX Galvanized Adjustable Standoff Post Base. We then installed a 9" x 13" Prestige PVC Column with custom routered trim. Constructed from premium quality Versatex PVC, these columns have been beautifully designed and are engineered to last. Finally, we installed Kool-Ray aluminum railing in a 5000 Series profile with 3"x3" newel posts. Kool-Ray aluminum railings won’t rot, rust, warp, flex, crack, chip, or require stain or re-painting. Our customers can now enjoy a safe and beautiful front porch area that will require no maintenance!
