Centreville, Virginia
Centreville backyards, built for more of the year.

How we manage it
Can the old deck stay?
Sometimes. Before we design a porch on an existing Centreville deck, we check the footings, ledger and framing. If they can carry a roof, we build on them. If not, we say so and price the rebuild.
Questions
Centreville remodeling FAQs
Do I need a permit for a screened porch in Centreville?
Yes. A roofed porch needs a Fairfax County building permit. We prepare the drawings and handle the county filing.
Can you build a screened porch on my existing deck?
Often, if the footings, ledger and framing can carry a roof load. We inspect them first and tell you whether to reuse or rebuild.
Deck or screened porch: which should I choose?
A deck is open sun and lower cost per square foot. A screened porch gives shade and bug-free evenings from spring to fall. Many owners do a porch with a small open deck beside it.

Outdoor living in Centreville: screened porches, decks and sunrooms
Centreville backyards often start with an aging deck off the kitchen. Turning that space into a screened porch adds shade and bug-free evenings from spring to fall. A deck stays open to the sun. A sunroom or three-season room encloses the space with windows or glass so you can use it more months of the year. We build screened porches and decks in Centreville—including finished porch work already on this page—and we also build sunrooms. For a finished sunroom with a wall of windows, see our work in Fairfax Station (that project is in Fairfax Station, not Centreville).
Indoor work is part of the same service: kitchens that open toward the deck, bathrooms and whole-home renovations. When a Centreville kitchen and porch are planned together, the door, roofline and lighting can be coordinated before either permit is filed. Schedule a consultation to walk the yard and talk through porch, deck or sunroom options.
Centreville outdoor living FAQ
What is the difference between a screened porch and a sunroom?
A screened porch is an outdoor room with a roof, screens and usually ceiling fans—usable from spring through fall, open to the air. A three-season or sunroom is enclosed with windows or glass, heated or unheated depending on the build, and usable more months of the year. In Centreville we most often build screened porches off the kitchen or deck; for a finished sunroom example see our Fairfax Station work, which is a separate project in Fairfax Station, not Centreville.
Do you build sunrooms in Centreville, and what permits does Fairfax County require?
Yes, we build sunrooms and three-season rooms in Centreville and across Fairfax County. A roofed porch or sunroom needs a Fairfax County building permit, and electrical work needs its own inspection. We prepare the drawings, file through the county PLUS portal, and schedule the inspections. Site conditions such as setbacks or Resource Protection Areas can affect where the room can sit; we check those before you sign a construction agreement.
How do I get started on a Centreville porch, deck or sunroom?
Schedule a consultation. Send the ZIP code and a few photos of the backyard or existing deck. We will tell you whether the current structure can carry a roof, outline screened porch versus sunroom options, and give you a realistic investment range before design fees.
