The traditional front porch has made an amazing comeback in American
residential architecture. For most of the 20th century, people were tearing
porches off old houses because they were out of style and required
maintenance. Now, it's unusual for a new home not to have a porch, and
many people are replacing porches that were ripped off decades ago. Whether
the porch is wood or masonry, whether the project is a repair or
starting from scratch, this online list
should provide you with the parts and pieces you need.
