Porch building questions

What is the difference between a porch and a deck?

A porch usually has a roof and is attached to the house entry, while a deck is typically open. Porches add weather protection and a covered sitting area.

Does a pro need a license for porch building?

Many states and cities require a contractor license or a permit for this kind of work. Ask for the license number and look it up with the state licensing agency before work starts.

Does it cost anything to request a pro?

No. Requests are free for customers, with no obligation to hire.

Who sees my request?

Only the pros you choose, plus our review team. Pros get your contact details only for this job.

Are the pros guaranteed to be licensed and insured?

No. We screen pros when they join and recheck some records on a schedule, but screening relies on public records and on what pros tell us, and it can miss things.

What if no pro is listed for my ZIP yet?

Send the request anyway. We hold it and match you when a pro who serves your ZIP joins.
