Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
To calculate the square footage, measure the length and width of the porch area that will be screened and multiply the two dimensions. For example, a porch that is 10 feet long and 15 feet wide would be 150 square feet.
Fiberglass mesh is typically the most cost-effective screen material, helping to keep project costs affordable for your clients.
Not necessarily. While simple screening of an existing porch may fall into the basic tier, if the enclosure involves mid-grade materials, standard construction techniques, or requires significant preparation, it could move into the mid-range or even premium tiers.
It's good practice to include a contingency in your quote, usually around 10-15% of the total project cost, to account for unforeseen issues such as rotted wood, uneven foundations, or other pre-existing structural problems.
A comprehensive quote should include a detailed breakdown of materials, labor costs, a timeline for completion, payment schedules, and a clear description of the scope of work. Offering tiered options can also be beneficial.
