"Much more than a complete siding job. Pergo flooring throughout the entire house, replacing 26 year old carpet. We had a new porch build with a roof fence built, another porch refurbished, inside work. After seeing the skill level we added more work we wanted to complete like tree removal, new security light, porch ceiling fan etc…we love our new oasis. Would recommend for any job big or small! "

Cobra takes great pride in providing top notch customer service, friendly technicians, and an expert knowledge base to help tailor your specific project or issues with tried-and-true methods.
"They were pricy, but came highly recommended. They were prompt in scheduling. Their main selling point is the quality of the prep cleaning. While the new deck looked OK, there were missed areas on the existing porch. The quality of the staining itself was variable - there were areas where they did a great job, and others that were missed, overlooked, or intentionally ignored. The eaves were among the intentionally ignored, and I was told "that's defined as part of the roof structure, which isn't included." Excuse me, but the contract says "clean and stain exterior of screen porch" - it does not say "screen porch walls only." Another ignored area was the top edge of the fascia and floorboards, which they stained above, and below, leaving a gap. And there were several other spots that were overlooked even after a visit to complete punch list items. I asked multiple times to talk to the owner but he never called me back. Next time I'll just hire a real house painter."

"Tyson and Ray arrived on time and introduced themselves. Because another visitor was at the house, they had to wait until his vehicle was loaded and gone before they could get their truck and equipment into place to start the job. They jumped in to lend a hand to help speed things up. The gents then power washed the vinyl siding of our 2 story home, our vinyl fence, and our back patio. They used a surface cleaner to scrub the driveway. When my wife pointed out a spot that needed a touch-up, they happily knocked it out to ensure our total satisfaction. An outstanding job from two outstanding gents. We highly recommend Blantons!"

"In October of 2024 Shane came out to give me a quote for yard clean up. After several calls by me, I finally got a start date. Shane called me and said they could start a day early and I was fine with that but they showed up at 5:30pm. I was told they would start at noon. The next day (actual start date) they showed up at 7:30pm and were there for a half hour and left because getting dark. I was told they would be there the next day at 9am. At 10:30am I called Shane asking where the crew was. He actually argued with me telling me they were there. So apparently I was blind. They showed up after 11am and they finished while I was out. Only half the job was done. I emailed all photos of areas not done with pic of contract for those areas quoted. In no way did Shane reach out to see if everything was done. I had to hire another company to finish what they did not do. When I got the bill, I reached out to Shane and said we need to revisit this bill because not everything done. He offered a $150 discount (via Sara's email) which was laughable and said "if ok we will send a new invoice". I sent an email back saying $150 is not acceptable and got no response. No response for 5 months! I got an email 5 months later saying my bill was delinquent but they cut the bill in half. I never received new invoice that showed bill was cut in half till 5 months after my last contact with them. They are not trustworthy and play games. If I could give a zero, I would."

A well-designed wraparound porch can significantly enhance your property's market appeal by improving curb appeal and expanding usable living space. The value increase varies based on your neighborhood, regional preferences, and how well the porch complements your home's architectural style. While you may not recoup the entire construction cost when selling, the enhanced marketability and distinctive character often make your property more attractive to potential buyers than similar homes without this feature.
While not mandatory, adding a roof to your wraparound porch provides substantial benefits, including protection from precipitation, shade during hot weather, and preservation of flooring materials. A covered porch creates a more versatile outdoor living space in various weather conditions. Though roofed structures initially cost more, they deliver greater functionality and potentially higher property value enhancement than uncovered alternatives.
Construction timelines for wraparound porches span several weeks to a few months, depending on project scope. The process begins with design and permitting phases, followed by foundation work, framing, flooring installation, and finishing details. Weather conditions, material availability, contractor scheduling, and design complexity influence the timeline. Larger porches with custom features naturally require more time than simpler, smaller projects.
Building permits are required for wraparound porch construction in most jurisdictions. These permits ensure your structure meets local building codes for structural integrity, proper attachment methods, appropriate railing heights, and other safety standards. Constructing without required permits risks potential fines, complications during future home sales, and possible removal orders. Requirements vary by location, so consulting your local building department before starting construction is essential.
The ideal flooring material depends on your specific priorities regarding appearance, maintenance requirements, durability, and budget. Traditional wood provides classic beauty but requires regular maintenance. Composite materials offer lower maintenance needs but at a higher initial cost. Concrete provides exceptional durability and minimal upkeep, but with a less traditional appearance. Your local climate conditions, expected foot traffic, and aesthetic preferences should guide your selection process rather than assuming one universal "best" option exists.
