01 — Overview
What We Build

Porch Construction Done Right

A porch is the most-used room of an Alabama house six months of the year — but only if it's the right size, the right orientation, and the structure ties cleanly into the existing roofline. Done wrong, you get a flat-roofed afterthought that leaks at the ledger and doesn't drain.

Old Number One Customs builds new porches and porch additions across Auburn, Opelika, Lake Martin, and Alexander City. We integrate with the existing home — matching roof pitch, fascia profile, soffit detail, and column proportion — so the porch reads as original.

Project Types

Configurations We Build

Screened porches

Full screen enclosures with tongue-and-groove ceilings, ceiling fans, recessed lighting, and a finished floor system rated for outdoor exposure.

Covered porches

Open-air covered porches with structural roof tie-in, finished ceiling, lighting, and column detail matched to the home.

Porch additions

Adding a new porch to a home that doesn't have one — front, back, or side. Includes footing design, roof integration, and finish carpentry.

Porch rebuilds

Tear-off and rebuild when an existing porch has failed framing, rotted columns, or a roof that no longer drains. Full structural reset.

Three-season rooms

Enclosed porches with sliding window systems — usable through more of the year, somewhere between a screened porch and an addition.

Outdoor living porches

Larger covered porches with outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, and TVs — designed as a real second living room.

03 — FAQ
Common Questions

What Homeowners Ask

What does a porch cost in Auburn, AL?

A new screened or covered porch in Auburn or Opelika typically runs $35,000 to $110,000. The drivers are square footage, ceiling height, roof tie-in complexity, and finish level. Use the configurator for a tier-based estimate.

Screened porch or covered porch — which makes more sense?

Screened porches are usable in mosquito season (May through October in central Alabama) but cost more because of the screen wall system. Covered porches are simpler and cheaper but only really work if you have a low-bug yard. We walk you through the tradeoff before pricing.

Can you tie a new porch into my existing roof?

Yes — this is the most common porch project we do. We pull the existing fascia, install a properly flashed ledger, and frame the new roof to either tie into the existing slope or run perpendicular. The detailing is what separates a porch that lasts from one that leaks.

Do porches add value to a home?

In the Auburn-Opelika market, a well-built porch typically returns 75-85% of its cost at resale, and shortens days-on-market because it shows well in listing photos. Lake Martin homes see higher returns because outdoor living is part of the lake-house buyer's expectation.

Do you build porches on Lake Martin?

Yes. We serve Lake Martin and Alexander City. Shoreline porches often need to coordinate with Alabama Power shoreline permits if the structure or grading work is close to the water.
