estimate cost to build screen porch
An average construction estimate for a completely new screened-in porch is about $70 per square foot. Therefore, a basic porch (8-foot by 10-foot) with a roof and screen measuring at 80 square feet would begin at a cost of $5,600.The porch design adds anywhere from $2,000 to $3,000 to the cost, and consumers should budget anywhere from $200 to $300 for the permits and city or county inspections. The cost of materials for a top-of-the-line screened-in porch on an existing deck runs between $860 and $1,070 with an installation cost between $297 and $304.
