A well-designed porch changes how a home is lived in. It creates protected outdoor space that feels comfortable, intentional, and structurally sound in every season.
We design and build porches that integrate naturally with the architecture of the home — engineered for long-term performance and everyday comfort.
A porch should feel calm.
Like it was always part of the home.
That’s what we build.
A porch should feel original to the house — not attached afterward.
We match rooflines, proportions, and architectural details so the addition blends seamlessly with the existing structure. When done correctly, a porch reads as part of the home’s original design.
This approach preserves visual balance while maintaining structural integrity.
Outdoor structures face constant exposure to moisture, heat, and seasonal movement. Performance depends on disciplined construction and durable materials.
Our builds account for:
• Structural framing sized for real-world loads
• Secure attachment to the existing home
• Drainage systems that prevent trapped moisture
• Materials selected for long-term weather resistance
The result is a porch that stays stable, dry, and comfortable year after year.
Improper spans are one of the most common causes of porch failure.
Beams and rafters must carry weight efficiently without excessive flex. When spans are pushed beyond safe limits, structural members concentrate stress in ways that lead to sagging, shifting, and long-term instability.
We design every porch around realistic load paths and conservative span calculations.
A porch should feel solid every time you step onto it.
Strength is not only vertical — it is directional.
Without proper lateral bracing, a porch can rack or shift under wind and seasonal movement. We incorporate engineered bracing systems that lock the structure into place.
These reinforcements are often hidden once finished, but they are essential to performance. They create a porch that feels quiet, rigid, and dependable in all conditions.
The strength of a porch is defined by its connections.
We use engineered hardware including rafter hangers, hurricane ties, reinforced post bases, and structural fasteners with high shear ratings. Critical load points are secured with concealed reinforcement systems that distribute force and prevent long-term movement.
Clear structural lines are preserved while the internal framework remains reinforced and secure.
A covered or screened porch expands how outdoor space is used.
It provides:
• Shade and temperature control
• Protection from insects and weather
• A comfortable extension of interior living space
• A dedicated area for everyday relaxation
These spaces are built for regular use — not occasional escape — becoming part of the home’s natural rhythm.
A porch changes more than the back of the house.
It changes how the home feels to live in. It creates a place where mornings begin slower, evenings last longer, and the space between indoors and outdoors feels more comfortable, more finished, and more inviting.
A great porch should feel calm when you step into it, and it should look complete in a way that makes the whole home feel more settled. That kind of result takes more than adding coverage. It takes planning, proportion, and craftsmanship in the visible details that make the space feel truly finished.
Material choices determine how a porch ages.
We prioritize systems that balance durability, appearance, and structural performance, including pressure-treated framing, composite or natural decking options, and corrosion-resistant screening and hardware.
Each selection is evaluated for longevity and compatibility with the home.
A porch should feel permanent — and that feeling starts with the finish.
Columns should feel balanced. Trim should look intentional. Ceiling details should feel complete. Lines should feel clean and consistent. The final space should look like it was carefully built, not quickly assembled.
That is where craftsmanship becomes visible.
A well-finished porch does more than look attractive. It communicates care, discipline, and a standard that carried all the way through the project.
Because when the details are done right, the whole space feels more complete.
Construction should feel organized and predictable.
Homeowners can expect:
• Clear communication at every stage
• Respect for the home and property
• Structured scheduling and site management
• Craftsmanship focused on long-term performance
We approach every project with the mindset that we are building onto our own home.

I would highly recommend Highland Construction Group for decks, porches, and additions. I’ve had a great experience working with Billy.

I would definitely recommend Highland Construction Group to anyone looking for a reliable and experienced deck/exterior contractor.Posted on Google![]()

We are extremely pleased on our double-stacked front porches. From the beginning, Billy did a fantastic job listening to our vision and understanding that we wanted to preserve the Southern charm of our home while creating a unique design that would also be lower maintenance. Billy kept us informed throughout the entire project, providing regular updates on timelines and completion. He also made numerous on-site visits during construction to make sure everything was progressing as planned and that the details were done right. We especially appreciated how accommodating he was with our budget. He worked with us to find the best options without trying to upsell or push unnecessary additions. The finished porches are beautiful, functional, and truly fit the character of our home. We highly recommend Billy and his team to anyone looking for a contractor who listens to their clients, communicates well, respects their budget, and takes pride in their work.Posted on Google![]()

I recently had a new deck built, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The owner communicated clearly and promptly throughout the entire project, which made everything feel easy and stress‑free. The crew was hardworking, professional, and delivered absolutely perfect results. I’m thrilled with my new deck and highly recommend this Highland Construction.Posted on Google![]()

Billy really came through for us on finishing our deck. Our previous contractor, who come to find out wasn’t licensed bailed on us. Our deck was not being built to code and was left only half finished. I quickly called The Highland Construction Group to see if they would help me get it finished. Billy arrived and assessed all the problems with the construction of our unfinished deck. Billy quickly came up with a plan of action and got his team to come in and complete our deck. My wife and I are so grateful for what The Highland Construction Group came in and did for us. If you’re looking for a new deck I highly recommend this company. Billy won’t BS you, he’s honest and is very knowledgeable on codes and deck building. My only complaint with my new deck is that I didn’t just go with The Highland Construction Group in the very beginning. I would have saved myself so many headaches. Thank you Billy for fixing and completing what this other shady contractor couldn’t.+1Posted on Google![]()

We used Highland Construction to screen our porch last year, and I couldn't be happier with the result. We'd been told by several other contractors that this couldn't be done due to the shape of the screens, but Billy and his crew didn't even blink- they just did the job better than I could have expected. Would definitely do business with them again.+0Posted on Google![]()

If we could give this group 6 stars, we would! We decided to do a major exterior remodel this year, after years of other things taking priority, mainly raising our family. We knew this was going to be a major undertaking and wanted someone we could trust and that would take as much pride in their work as we would with the result. Billy Creeden and his crew was recommended by a work colleague of mine. They were professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and time efficient. They finished the job right as expected and the workmanship was topnotch!! I have and will continue to recommended this crew with the utmost confidence. We cannot thank you enough, Billy!!Posted on Google![]()

Our existing wood deck was rotting out, so I contacted Timber Tech and they recommended The Highland Construction Group. Billy responded quickly, told me what needed to done to shore up the existing deck framing for the new synthetic deck. His crew was amazing and professional. The new deck and metal handrails look and feel amazing.Posted on Google![]()

I had the pleasure of working with The Highland Construction Group to refurbish/replace our wooden deck with Timber Tech flooring and railings. A complete over haul. From the beginning of the project to completion, the owner was professional, and communicated every detail. The workmanship was beyond excellent. I would give the owner and his team a higher rating than a five if it were available. If you want professionalism, a great product and workmanship at a fair price, I encourage you to work with this company.Posted on Google![]()

My project turned out exactly the way I imagined it. The team at Highland Construction Group was great, very professional and true craftsmen. The screened porch looks as though it was part of the original house construction. They are a highly communicative team, willing to answer any and all questions, and bring great ideas and suggestions for the homeowner to consider. The whole project was a great experience, I couldn't be happier with the result.
Homeowners throughout North Metro Atlanta choose us for disciplined construction and consistent execution.
We are known for:
• Building beyond minimum standards
• Structural precision and attention to detail
• Fully licensed and insured work
• Additions designed to perform for decades
We build porches meant to be enjoyed every day they stand.
Porch pricing is not just about size. It is about execution.
Two porches can look similar in a proposal and deliver very different finished results. The difference is often in the details: how naturally the porch ties into the home, how complete the trim work feels, how well the visible finishes are handled, and whether the final space feels truly settled when the build is done.
That is why pricing is not just about what gets included.
It is about the level of care behind how everything comes together.
A porch is not just a covered addition. It is where life slows down.
It is where mornings begin, where hard days end, where rain hits the roof and the whole space feels calmer because of it. It is where conversations last longer, where family settles in, and where the people you love feel sheltered, comfortable, and at home. That is why we do not build porches to simply look good when they are finished.
We build them to feel grounded, to look complete, and to carry the kind of craftsmanship that makes a space feel worth stepping into every day. Because when your family steps onto a porch, they should not be thinking about how it was built.
They should just feel that it was built right.
We design and build covered and screened porches throughout Woodstock, Marietta, and surrounding North Metro Atlanta communities.
If you are considering a covered or screened porch, we evaluate your home, discuss structural options, and design a solution that fits both architecture and lifestyle.
