Covered Porches in Slinger, WI
There’s something timeless about a covered porch. It’s that perfect in-between space—part shelter, part fresh air. Whether it’s out front to wave at the neighbors, wrapped around your home to take in the views, or tucked away out back for a little more privacy, a covered porch adds function, character, and warmth to your home. At Hometown Builders Unlimited, we design and build covered porches that actually get used—not just admired from the street.
More Than Just a Roof
A good covered porch should feel like a natural extension of your home—not an afterthought. We work with you to make sure your new porch matches your home’s style, serves your needs, and holds up to Wisconsin weather. Want somewhere to sip your coffee, host dinner outside, or relax with a book while it rains? We’ll make it happen.
Covered Porch Styles We Build
Front Covered Porches
That first impression matters. A front porch sets the tone for your entire home—and when done right, it gives you both curb appeal and a place to slow down. Add a porch swing, a couple of rocking chairs, maybe some overhead lighting or a ceiling fan, and suddenly your entryway becomes a destination.
Back Covered Porches
Back porches are where the real living happens. These spaces offer privacy, protection from the elements, and all the comforts of home—without the walls. Great for outdoor dining, family hangouts, or just unwinding at the end of the day, a covered back porch feels like a hidden getaway in your own backyard.
Wraparound Porches
If you’ve got the space for it, a wraparound porch is hard to beat. It’s the kind of feature that gives your home a cozy, classic charm while offering different views and usable zones around the house. Dining on one side, lounging on another—it’s like having multiple rooms, all outdoors.
Materials That Make a Difference
When we build porches, we use materials that hold up in the Midwest—through the heat, the cold, and everything in between.
- Wood – Timeless, warm, and full of character. Cedar and pressure-treated pine are great options if you don’t mind a little upkeep.
- Composite – A popular choice for good reason. Composite decking looks sharp, requires almost no maintenance, and won’t rot or splinter.
- Vinyl – Low maintenance and moisture-resistant. A solid option if you want something that lasts without the upkeep.
- Aluminum – Lightweight and weatherproof, especially great for railings and accents.
- Metal Roofing – Durable and long-lasting, metal roofs shed snow and rain with ease and look great on just about any porch.
We’ll walk you through the pros and cons of each and help you pick the right combo for your design and budget.
Materials That Make a Difference
We don’t build cookie-cutter porches. Every project is tailored to your home and how you want to use it. Whether you’re looking for something cozy and simple or something big enough for hosting and relaxing, we’ll help bring it to life—down to the last detail.
