My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Great porch!

May I ask the color and brand of stain on the Douglas fir columns?

    I really like the contrasting screen door. Is that a custom door?

      Hi,

      I wish I could answer that but unfortunately don't know the brand.

      Thanks,

      Hi,

      The porch is poured-in-place concrete.

      Thanks,

      Thanks. Great house. I'm changing my house elevation now that I've seen this porch. I love the simplicity of it.

      I love the dark blue paint! Do you happen to know the color and brand of paint?

      I know this an old post... but I believe the question was about the stain on the columns, not the paint on the house. I am curious as well... are those YellaWood columns or solid 8x8 beams? Any details you can recall would be very helpful.
