Angleton Porch Construction & Outdoor Living Services

We design and build long‑lasting porches tailored to Angleton’s climate and codes. Our team focuses on structural safety, clean roof tie‑ins, and finishes that look original to your home.

Custom Porch Construction

When you want a porch that fits your home and lifestyle, we start with a site assessment and a CAD layout. We specify engineered footings for expansive soils and wind uplift, Simpson Strong‑Tie connectors, and hot‑dip galvanized or stainless fasteners. Materials include pressure‑treated pine, western red cedar, and composite options to suit your budget and maintenance goals. Expect precise ledger flashing per IRC R703/R507 or a free‑standing frame where brick veneer is present. Result: a porch that looks built‑with‑the‑home and performs for decades. Learn more about our Custom Porch Construction services.

Covered Porch Construction

Beat the sun and rain with a solid roof cover that matches your roof pitch, fascia height, and shingles. We build with aluminum insulated roof panels or stick‑framed structures with a shingle or standing‑seam metal finish. Hurricane ties, uplift connectors, and properly flashed roof‑to‑wall joints ensure durability in coastal winds. Add gutters, recessed LED lighting, and ceiling fans for comfort. Recent example: a 12'×20' covered porch in Rancho Isabella with 6×6 posts, 18‑ft beams, and integrated drainage. Learn more about our Covered Porch Construction services.

Screened Porch Installation

Keep mosquitoes out and airflow in. Our screened rooms use durable aluminum framing, tight bug‑screen, PVC/Hardie trim, and corrosion‑resistant fasteners ideal for Brazoria County. We add GFCI‑protected outlets and in‑use covers per local NEC standards, plus fans for comfort. Doors, pet‑resistant screens, and kick plates are available. We can build over a new concrete slab or extend your existing patio with stamped concrete. Learn more about our Screened Porch Installation services.

Louvered Roof Systems

Get shade when you want it and sun when you don’t with motorized louvered roofs. As an authorized installer, we set posts and beams on engineered footings, route low‑voltage controls cleanly, and integrate gutters for positive drainage. Powder‑coated aluminum components resist corrosion; coastal‑grade fasteners prevent staining and failure. Add app controls, rain sensors, and perimeter screens for all‑weather use. Learn more about our Louvered Roof Systems services.

Porch Repair

Sagging roofs, soft floors, and rusted hardware are common in our climate. We perform NADRA‑style evaluations, replace compromised joists and beams, upgrade connectors to stainless or ZMAX, and correct improper ledgers with free‑standing frames when needed. We also address drainage with gutters and downspouts to protect your slab and landscaping. Need storm damage help? We coordinate insurance scopes and rebuild to current code.

Why Homeowners Choose Houston Porch in Angleton, TX

We build for the coast. Houston Porch combines design expertise, code knowledge, and meticulous craftsmanship to deliver porches that look original to your home and pass every inspection. As a local, insured team serving Brazoria County, we manage permits, HOA submittals, and windstorm certificates so your investment is protected. Count on us as your trusted Porch Builder Angleton TX.

Engineered for Wind, Built to Code

Angleton has adopted the 2015 IRC/IBC, and we build to those standards every day. We use engineered footings sized for uplift and expansive clays, hurricane ties and straps at critical connections, and proper ledger detailing per IRC R703/R507. Where brick veneer makes ledgers risky, we use free‑standing frames to keep the structure dry and stable.

For properties needing windstorm eligibility, we enroll projects in the Texas wind program and coordinate inspections through an appointed engineer. Our goal is straightforward: you enjoy your new space while we secure the documentation insurers look for, including final WPI‑8 or WPI‑8E when applicable.

Permits, HOA, and Licensed Trades Handled

We prepare scaled drawings, structural notes, and product specs, then submit via Angleton’s MGO Connect permitting portal. We also assemble HOA approval packets with elevations, material samples, and color selections to speed approvals. You stay informed with a clear timeline from submittal to final inspection.

Electrical and gas work are performed by Texas‑licensed trades. Expect GFCI protection, in‑use covers, and weather‑rated fittings per local NEC references. Want fans, recessed lights, or a future TV box? We rough‑in cleanly, label circuits, and provide as‑built documentation.

Materials and Hardware That Last in Brazoria County

We specify western red cedar or pressure‑treated southern yellow pine, with options in Trex, TimberTech/AZEK, and WearDeck for low maintenance. All exterior trims can be PVC/Hardie for crisp lines and longevity. In coastal exposure zones, we upgrade to 304/316 stainless steel fasteners and Simpson Strong‑Tie stainless connectors to combat corrosion.

Roof systems range from stick‑framed with shingle tie‑ins to insulated aluminum panels with integrated gutters. We align fascia heights, match soffits, and flash every transition. The result is a seamless look and a dry, quiet cover you’ll use year‑round.

Precision Build Process and Clean Worksites

Our crews use transit/laser levels for slab extensions, miter saws and nailers for tight joints, and scaffold setups for safe overhead work. Typical field time after permit approval is 2–3 weeks for most covered porches. We schedule inspections promptly to keep your project moving.

You’ll get daily updates, photo checkpoints, and a final walkthrough. We leave the site clean, haul debris, and register applicable product and workmanship warranties. Most importantly, your porch looks like it’s always been part of your home.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for a porch or patio cover in Angleton?

Yes. Angleton requires permits for new porches, patio covers, screen rooms, and electrical or gas work. We prepare drawings and submit via the MGO Connect portal, coordinate any plan review comments, and schedule inspections. If your property needs windstorm certification, we also enroll it with a TDI‑appointed engineer. Our team handles the process so you don’t have to chase paperwork.

What is a WPI‑8/WPI‑8E and when is it required in Brazoria County?

A WPI‑8 (or WPI‑8E for existing structures) is the Windstorm Certificate of Compliance issued after approved inspections. In Brazoria County, insurers often require it for eligibility under coastal wind programs when you add or modify roofed structures like patio covers or screen rooms. We enroll the project, follow TDI guidelines, and coordinate inspections so you receive the final certificate upon completion.

How long does a typical patio cover or porch project take?

After permit approval and HOA clearance, most covered porch builds take about 2–3 weeks of on‑site time, depending on size, electrical/gas scope, and weather. Louvered roofs and screen rooms can be similar, while complex roofs or concrete extensions may add days. We provide a written schedule, target inspection dates, and daily updates so you always know next steps.

Can you match my roof pitch, fascia height, and shingles so it looks original?

Yes. We field‑measure your fascia height and rafter layout, then design a tie‑in that matches roof pitch, soffit depth, and shingle profile. We use proper flashing at wall/roof intersections and can integrate gutters for a factory look. Many Angleton clients tell us visitors can’t tell the porch wasn’t built with the home.

Do you handle HOA submittals and drawings?

Absolutely. We create scaled plans, elevations, and material/color selections tailored to your HOA’s checklist. We submit on your behalf, respond to ARC requests, and align permit drawings to the approved set. This keeps approvals smooth and prevents delays between HOA and City of Angleton reviews.

Can you wire fans, recessed lights, and outlets in the new porch?

Yes - our Texas‑licensed electrician installs GFCI‑protected circuits, in‑use covers, and weather‑rated boxes per local NEC references. Popular options include dimmable LED recessed cans, fan supports, TV outlets, and switched receptacles. We label panels and provide as‑builts so future service is easy.

Do I need stainless steel hardware and fasteners near the coast?

In coastal environments and areas exposed to salt air, 304/316 stainless connectors and fasteners are recommended. We specify stainless Simpson Strong‑Tie connectors or ZMAX with stainless screws where appropriate. This helps prevent staining, rust, and premature failure - especially important for homes south toward Lake Jackson, Clute, and Freeport.

How much does it cost to add a porch in Texas?

Regional ranges vary by size, roof design, finishes, and electrical. In our area, a modest covered porch often starts in the mid‑$10Ks, while larger, upgraded builds with lighting, fans, and slab extensions can run higher. Louvered roofs and screen rooms price differently. We provide a detailed, line‑item estimate so you can compare options confidently.

What’s the difference between a pergola, solid patio cover, and screened porch?

A pergola provides shade and style but limited rain protection. A solid patio cover offers full shade and shelter from rain with an integrated roof. A screened porch adds bug control with door and screen systems. We help you choose based on sun, wind, privacy, and budget at your Angleton home.

What areas around Angleton do you serve?
