Cottage Lake House Porch Addition

Ok, let me know and if I have some time I will make a new layout if needed.

I am not sure that it will work. I will have to think about that. Let me speak to my husband

Susie,
I would leave the planters and benches where they are and place the new columns directly behind them as I have shown in the submittal. They are too nice to remove.

Ever consider an Awning light weight and retractable

You will need to know what construction documents re required to pass codes before you build or you will get a stop work order posted on the project. I have been at this for over 20 year both building and working for architects I have seen builders get the stop work orders you may have it where you do not need it I have seen that too.

You’ll need permits site plans foundation plans elevations floor plan sections roof plans have you researched this with you codes people locally. What is your location some zoning department have services online.

your builder may have to go thru the deck to do the foundations

Open porch

Not really sure what a gable looks like

do you want a gable face

do you want an open porch or a closed porch

That should read that the porch CAN&;T slope straight down!!!!! Don&;t want a Lean-to look

I have the details for the porch. The deck in tappered and the height is much higher than I thought.

>Looking at the house from the lake the frist pole the right can actually go in the ground without going through the deck and it is 15&; 10" the next planter box is 15&; 11" the next one after that is 14&; 9" and then 12&; 6" to the second window (from the left) beam where the porch will end. These measurements include a 22&; setback from the edge of the deck which is on the property line.

>Now, the height.... the porch will attach at 11&; from the deck and the pole will have to go in the ground which is 14&; from the attachment point. Nice and tall.

Hi Susie,
I have a design finished for you, but the CAD Crowd documents suggest not submitting a design until a payment has been made; as I see your status is Payment Pending. I am not sure exactly how this works on your end, but it would be nice to be paid for my work if you like the design.

I will need to get the deck dimension on Saturday when I an up at the lake. The porch should go between the first and second floor.

can you give some dimensions of the back porch? and the height of the covered porch??

Hey y&;all, I have a couple of questions for clarification... firstly do you want the covered porch roof line to start from the existing roof line of the second floor or a new roof-line between floors at approx 9&; mark. Also can you clarify what you mean that it cant slope straight down....

I have several idea that would work great but I want to make sure I am on the ball park with your ideas.

I can have this turned out in a day for you if you can get back ASAP
