Newick ArchitectsWe made several interventions on this existing shoreline Cape but this is the entry porch and vestibule that we added to the outside. We "stretched" the existing geometry to make this volume and constructed the space with Ipe, stainless steel, Stony Creek granite and red cedar.
NORDIC BUILDERS - MODERN TIMBERFRAME DESIGN BUILDAnother pic of the inside of the screen porch during construction. I like it. If you are wondering why I like all the shots, its because I threw all of the crummy shots out. You don't even want to know how many shots I took on this entire job. I set the record for our jobs so far.
Kraft Custom ConstructionWhen we first saw this 1850's farmhouse, the porch was dangerously fragile and falling apart. It had an unstable foundation; rotting columns, handrails, and stairs; and the ceiling had a sag in it, indicating a potential structural problem. The homeowner's goal was to create a usable outdoor living space, while maintaining and respecting the architectural integrity of the home.
We began by shoring up the porch roof structure so we could completely deconstruct the porch itself and what was left of its foundation. From the ground up, we rebuilt the whole structure, reusing as much of the original materials and millwork as possible. Because many of the 170-year-old decorative profiles aren't readily available today, our team of carpenters custom milled the majority of the new corbels, dentil molding, posts, and balusters. The porch was finished with some new lighting, composite decking, and a tongue-and-groove ceiling.
The end result is a charming outdoor space for the homeowners to welcome guests, and enjoy the views of the old growth trees surrounding the home.
Lasley Brahaney Architecture + ConstructionOur Princeton architects designed a new porch for this older home creating space for relaxing and entertaining outdoors. New siding and windows upgraded the overall exterior look. Our architects designed the columns and window trim in similar styles to create a cohesive whole.

NORDIC BUILDERS - MODERN TIMBERFRAME DESIGN BUILDI like this angle underneath. The columns and beams look so fat and chunky. And the light shows the cracking and checking. This is actually the front porch. It's smaller so didn't need timbers for rafters. Just used roughsawn dimensional lumber but kept it black like the back porch.

2/3 concrete posts topped by 10x10 pine timbers stained cedartone. All of these natural materials and color tones pop nicely against the white metal siding and galvalume roofing. Massive timber with the steel plates and concrete piers turned out nice. Small detail to notice: smaller steel plate right under the post makes it appear to be floating. Love that.

NORDIC BUILDERS - MODERN TIMBERFRAME DESIGN BUILDEven though I had to really get down on the ground for this pic, I really like how it turned out. The angle is pretty cool and you can see more of the porch than some of the other pics. The cross or t shape is pretty prominent in a lot of our design. Like all the windows especially. So I like that we use it here on the porch also. Keeps a cohesive look.

Archadeck of Northeast DallasArchadeck added a covered porch with a gable roof. The roof style and the components we used in the porch’s construction all emulate the elements used on the home. This ensures the new addition will have that “always been there appeal and originality” Archadeck designs are so well-known for.
Mjolnir ConstructionBefore 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!
