Do you love spending time outdoors but find the the East Tennessee sun and weather sometimes make it difficult for you? A covered porch may be the perfect solution for you. Giving you protection from the elements, a covered porch allows you to enjoy the outdoors without the hassle, and with additions like fans and heaters, you can extend use of the porch until well into the summer and winter months.
Adding a covered porch to your existing home is easier than you may think. Whether you have an existing deck or porch or are starting from scratch, Haun Construction can tie into your existing roof and structure to create a seamless, watertight covering.

How to Add a Covered Porch to Your Home or Deck
The process of adding a covered porch to an existing deck or porch is relatively simple:
- Hire a contractor: If you’re not comfortable building a covered porch yourself, hire an experienced contractor to complete the project. (Ensure they are licensed, bonded, and insured for added protection for you and your home.)
- Choose the right design: The design should compliment your current structure.
- Choose the right materials: The materials you choose for your covered porch will depend on your budget and the climate in your area.
- Quote, deposit, and timeframe: We’ll provide you with a quote and timeframe for the project. You provide the approval and deposit.
- Get permits (if applicable): Depending on your location, you may need to get permits before construction begins.
- Construction: The process begins with constructing the new deck or porch and/or preparing the existing porch structure to support the covering. As we move up to the covering, we will tie into your existing roof to create a seamless and watertight connection. If your home is older, it may require troubleshooting related to aged materials. However, we will be in constant contact to ensure you stay in the know about the project.
