This old porch was literally in its last leg, sucking so much that the stucco was starting to fall off. We tore it off, jacked up the second floor with the roof and rebuilt it. Added recessed lighting on a dimmer switch. Beautifully stained tongue and groove ceiling and decking and handrail tops. Refurbished the antique doors and installed new handles. Re screened the storm doors. Resurfaced the concrete steps and added composite handrails. Siding and wrapped the posts and beams in azek. Virtually maintenance free. Also sod the side steps, wrapped and seals on the garage door. Inside: ceiling fans, cabinet trim and toe kick, some electrical work. We noticed that there were other houses on this street with the same problem, probably built by the same builders at the time, a lot of people asked if we could take a look at their porch, so this will probably lead to more jobs of this nature!
