Porches – Classic Comfort, Custom Built
There’s nothing quite like a porch to give your home a timeless, welcoming feel. Whether it’s a wide front porch perfect for rocking chairs and coffee at sunrise, or a cozy back porch built for weekend cookouts, the right porch can elevate your home’s charm, function, and curb appeal.
At Knoxville Designer Decks, we design and build custom porches that blend seamlessly with your home’s architecture and enhance your outdoor living experience. With more than 18 years of construction expertise, we’ve helped homeowners throughout East Tennessee add porches that look amazing and feel even better.
More Than Just a Porch
A porch isn’t just a structure — it’s an experience. It’s the first impression guests see and the last space you enjoy before calling it a day. Whether you want an open-air space or a fully covered extension of your home, we’ll help you build a porch that reflects your lifestyle and adds lasting value to your property.
Porches offer:
- Expanded Outdoor Living: A comfortable, usable space to enjoy the outdoors
- Shelter from the Elements: Protection from sun, rain, and wind
- Curb Appeal Boost: Instantly enhances the look and charm of your home
- Increased Home Value: A highly desirable feature for resale
- Flexible Use: Great for relaxing, entertaining, or connecting with neighbors
From farmhouse front porches to back porch retreats, we custom build every project from the ground up.
Types of Porches We Build
No matter the size or style of your home, we can design and construct the perfect porch for your space, needs, and budget.
Front Porches
The classic American porch — ideal for adding character and charm to your home’s entryway. Whether you want a full-width porch, a partial wraparound, or a small covered stoop, we’ll create a design that fits naturally with your home’s architecture.
Back Porches
Perfect for private relaxation or hosting guests. A custom back porch can include stairs to the yard, built-in seating, fans, or lighting to make it the most functional outdoor space on your property.
Covered Porches
If you’re looking for shade and shelter, a covered porch is the way to go. We design sturdy, attractive roofs that match your home’s style and can be equipped with everything from recessed lighting to ceiling fans.
Wraparound Porches
For larger homes or properties with views, wraparound porches offer multiple access points, panoramic perspectives, and a true Southern-style outdoor lifestyle.
Screened-In Porches
Want the feel of being outdoors without the bugs or pollen? A screened-in porch gives you the breeze and brightness of an open porch with extra comfort and protection. Great for year-round use in East Tennessee.

- Wood, composite, or PVC flooring
- Tongue-and-groove ceilings or exposed rafters
- Recessed lighting and ceiling fans
