I tell ya’, Wes and I are turning a new leaf with all these projects we are doing together.  This weekend we installed the screen door.

Do you remember what it looked like before?

I know painting WOOD is always controversial.   There are those that liked the porch the way it was and didn’t think we should paint it.

But we did…actually, we hired this job out, as you can see, and are completely happy with the job that was done.

Then Wes and I screened it in and installed the door.

We don’t have any furniture yet but we like it soooo much better painted!

  1. When it rains and the water hit the inside of your porch are you concerned with the rain/water damaging the wood around the inside bottom of the porch?

  2. I don’t understand the question.

  3. I Love the new paint color!
    Question: I noticed you have wood board “inside” the siding of the porch, how will you keep the wood from rain rotten?
    Thanks

  4. We bought supplies from Home Depot. There was a track (kinda thing) and a rubber tube that you pushed into the track with a roller-majic that pushed the screen in tight. Does that help? LOL Sorry I didn’t do a tutorial.

    How did you do the screen? Is there a particular system you used? We are redoing our screened-in porch and need to replace the screening.
