Porticos are covered entrances for the front door that help accentuate the entry area - and can dramatically improve a home's curb appeal. A portico can help provide optimal protection for your guests, front entry and even your foyer. Doors, hardware and trim that are exposed to the weather eventually succumb to splintering, rotting, fading and more. Covering the entrance with a portico can substantially reduce and even eliminate those headaches. It’s a convenient amenity to protect guests on those cold rainy nights as they wait for the door to be answered. And don’t forget porticos make a perfect stage for holiday decorations. Here are a number of portico styles -- all designed and built by Georgia Front Porch. http://www.georgiafrontporch.com/
