Front Porches & Porticos Testimonials

Georgia Front Porch did everything they said they would in the time frame that was promised. They were professional and honest from the first encounter. Armando and the others were amazing and professional at what they do. Our portico has transformed the front of our house. I only wish we had done it sooner! Highly recommend!

Elaine P., Alpharetta, January 2024

I cannot say enough about my experience with this company. Professional, talented, fairly priced, communicative, and very patient with my (endless) design-related questions. Tim was my salesperson and he was terrific from start to finish… very responsive and any little change to the quote was handled professionally with a revised agreement sent for my signature (which made it very easy to follow as I made tweaks to the original plan). No surprises at all. Mandie in the front office/scheduling, was also very pleasant to work with. Our lead contractor on site was Alfredo and he and his entire crew worked very hard (in 90 degree temps) to get the dimensions and scale of the project perfect, including the size of columns, their exact placement (we had to make a few on-site adjustments from the original plan due to site conditions) and the radius of a complicated and unusual arch detail. We just finished a six year renovation on my home, with this being the final project. If every other contractor who touched my home over the past six years was anywhere near the caliber of this company, I would quit my job tomorrow and start flipping houses. They made this renovation project a snap — the way it should be with professional contractors (but never seems to be these days). If you are in the North Atlanta area, do not hesitate to call them. You won’t regret it!

Arlene L., Atlanta, August 2023

Thank you for having your company take on our portico project!! It is a game changer for the front of the house.

Renée L., Atlanta, August 2023

These folks have done 4 major projects for us over the past 15 years: an awesome front porch portico, a beautiful deck refurbishment and 2 superb screen porches. They are friendly, easy to work with and on schedule. Their craftsmanship, above all, keeps us coming back. We wouldn’t use anyone else.

Bob F., Holly Springs, June 2023

I had a great experience with Georgia Front Porch on the design and construction of our new portico!

Thomas E., Johns Creek, February 2023

We tried to find a company that would put a small portico over our front door. We had the hardest time finding a company that wanted to take on a project that was considered small like ours. My husband found Georgia Front Porch and it was all positive from there forward. They came out and talked to us. They rendered several different drawings until we found the one that we thought was perfect for us. They sent the builders out, (2) days later the metal roofing guy came by and then sooner than expected, the painters came to finish. There was very little delay in getting the project started and finished. They were very professional and we thought very reasonable for the work that they did. We appreciated them showing up when they said they would. We would use them again if we had a project that required their expertise. If you have a project regarding your front door or any door, I would give them a call. Thank you Georgia Front Porch.

Sherry P., Dunwoody, August 2022

The portico they built looks amazing! Their price was so good and the construction crew did such a great job as did the painters. It really added curb appeal to the front of our house. I definitely recommend Georgia Front Porch. Their crew has been with them for 15+ years and you can tell!

Edye B., Sugar Hill, September 2022

I wanted to let you know that Armando did a great job. He is very professional and the quality of his work is wonderful. Thank you for the great work — my new portico looks amazing

Diana S., Dunwoody, October 2021

We are delighted with our portico. Ours was a challenging project, as there was little room to work with between the two windows above our front door. Georgia Front Porch put an engineer on the project to design a custom solution for us. And, Tim Moss, the project lead, was great to work with as he took the time to listen to our concerns and find the right solution for us. We have done a lot this year to improve our home, including painting the brick and installing a new front door, garage doors and gutters. But the portico is the thing that really makes the difference. We highly recommend Georgia Front Porch!

Lori & Phil J., Suwanee, September 2021

I wanted to let you know how pleased we are with the work done last week by your team. The portico looks great and is doing precisely what we wanted it to do: enhance the front of our home while keeping the sun from beating on the front door and foyer. We’ve received many positive comments from neighbors and even asked for the name of your company. Your project leader did a great job suggesting ideas for us to incorporate into our finished product and he was spot-on in this regard. He truly was a great representative for Georgia Front Porch. And though we did have to wait a while for the project to start, our patience paid off. It’s clear to us GFP is staying busy due to the quality of work done for its clients.

Steve E., Marietta, September 2020

Loved the work done by Georgia Front Porch on our house!

Kevin S., Alpharetta, July 2020

I wanted to thank you for the job you did! The new front porch was a complete success and looks fantastic! Alfredo and his crew did a wonderful job and were a pleasure to have on the property. You have a top notch company and you should be very proud. I will recommend you and your company highly.

Francis P., Marietta, December 2019

I had Georgia Front Porch build a portico on the front of my house. From first contact for an estimate to the end process, communication and customer service was impeccable! We designed it with my elderly mother and her limited mobility in mind. Gary understood my vision, communicated all of my options and pricing, and accurately estimated start time of project. The construction team were professional and built a high quality portico. Worth every penny I paid!! Transformed the outside of my house and added so much character! This was my 4th project with this company (Atlanta Decking and Ga Front Porch) I will definitely be back in touch again!!

Tara H., Cumming, August 2019

Your team built a lovely portico for my home — great job! Thank you for keeping us informed along the way. I will be referring our neighbor who lives on my street and was so complimentary about our new portico addition. Thank you to all those involved in the process. We will be happy to tell others just how much we appreciate the look our house now has.

Darlene C., Roswell, September 2018

Wonderful addition. The guys at Georgia Front Porch are wonderful! David Day and Wesley Kent were always on time and were prepared to install the porticoes. They added a porticoes over our front and basement doors. We have received many compliments on these additions. Extremely happy with this company.

Jesse M., Marietta, May 2018

The guys just wrapped up…I wanted to send a note to let you know that we really enjoyed our experience working with the Georgia Front Porch Team. David & Wesley did an amazing job and we are very happy with the final product. We’ll be recommending GFP on Houzz and to many of our neighbors.

Joe V., Peachtree Corners, April 2018

The new portico looks great, and the dormers with the new metal really make the whole portico/dormer combo really work. Your guys did an excellent job, they did it quickly and cleanly and I have nothing but good things to say about Georgia Front Porch. I will definitely do a testimonial for you and I expect my brother-in-law to be giving you a call soon. He needs a portico, too.

Darrell D., Acworth, April 2018

This is the second time we have had Georgia Front Porch put an addition onto our house. We love our garage portico! It turned out exactly as we had in mind. Georgia Front Porch is always very professional and punctual. They take great pride in the job they do and thoroughly clean up after the work is completed each day.

Kathy L., Acworth, March 2018

Charles and I just wanted to thank Georgia Front Porch for another job well done. We are very pleased with the outcome of our garage portico. Everyone is always a pleasure to work with! We loved spending time with David and Wesley and watching the portico turn out just as we had in mind. Thanks again for the great experience!

Kathy L., Acworth, March 2018

I wanted to show you a photo of what we’ve done so far with the portico. We love it! Thank you so much for your beautiful design.

Amanda T., Alpharetta, December 2017

I would like to thank you and Gary and the rest of the folks at Georgia Front Porch for a great experience! You guys made it easy for us to finalize a design and build the porch. Your help and coordination with Abby doors was a big step to get the work done in a very timely fashion. We also really appreciated Georgia Front Porches methods to keep our place in line in spite of the Abby door delays. Your patience and coordination here, Mandie, once again is really appreciated. Finally, your contractors are top notch! David and his partner (whose name escapes me at the moment) worked some “out of the box magic” to make the design work. They are a great team and we believe they could work their way around any design predicaments thrown at them! Pass on our complements to the team. Thanks again for all your patience and efforts Mandie…. we will recommend Georgia Front Porch to all our neighbors.

Suzanne and John S., Roswell, November 2017

We were extremely pleased with the entire process and final product. Gary was very accommodating to meeting our design and worked with us on the best ways to stay within our budget. The actual construction was completed much quicker than promised and Armando was truly amazing. We watched him put the entire structure together with extreme precision and attention to detail. You could tell he was a skilled tradesman that had been doing this for a while. Kuddos to GFP for retaining someone like him. It’s been over a year since we had it constructed and we continue to get compliments from neighbors. Highly recommended.

David H., Roswell, July 2017

Just to let you know, we have had several neighbors comment on just how nice the portico turned out. I’ve got some Georgia Front Porch business cards to hand out when needed. The portico completely changed and enhanced the front of our house, it’s a stunning improvement. David and Wesley were great, I call them craftsmen.

Chuck D., Roswell, July 2017

I LOVE the portico. Thanks to you and your team of craftsmen who built it for us.

Mary Ellen K., Roswell, Dec. 2016

Please pass this along to everyone! Anna and I received a “Thank You” post card from our HOA today for the improvements we did to our house — which translates to the work you guys did on our house. I’ve never seen or heard of a Thank You from an HOA before but our front porch has had such wonderful attention and praise from neighbors – not just those that live next to us but from so many people in the neighborhood that have made it a point to stop and comment. Thank you all again!

Dave & Anna L., Acworth, Oct. 2016

Before I found Georgia Front Porch I had come up with a portico design myself. I chose Georgia Front Porch because I wanted to have someone who didn’t just build porticos, but also did portico design and could critique my design and make suggestions. Their website has a great photo gallery of their projects and looked like they did the general type of designs we wanted. When I contacted them, I told their design consultant that I had a design in mind and he asked me to send a picture of it to him. He responded with agreement with my basic design and further recommendations being two options for the roof: one using shingles to match our house roof, and one a black metal roof (which I had not thought of and immediately liked the idea, as a classy look). I really liked their design consultant, Gary Zielinski – he was very sharp and knowledgeable. He came to look at our front entry door and uncovered stoop, asked and answered more questions, discussed a lot of details of the design of the columns, ability of the stoop to support the addition of a portico, drainage, etc, and made lots of good recommendations. They subcontracted out to other companies for the roof installation and the painting (we did not want to paint it ourselves), and both of those companies were really good too. I highly recommend Georgia Front Porch.

Sherryl B., Buford, Feb. 2016

Please let the proper people know that I have really enjoyed working with Georgia Front Porch and I have already recommended you to at least 3 folks (including the pizza delivery guy), who are interested in doing something similar. From you to Gary, to David and Wesley, the process was good.

Andy W., Cumming, Jan. 2016

We had a wonderful experience with Georgia Front Porch. Because this is their busy season, we had to wait approx. 6 weeks between signing the contract and them beginning to work, but they told us up-front that this would be the timing. They came one week to demolish and haul off the old stoop, followed by pouring new concrete. A week later, two carpenters came and worked over 2 days to erect the structure. The metal roof installer (a subcontractor) appeared the next morning and finished his work by lunchtime. Two days later, the painters (more subcontractors) arrived and finished within another half day. Every person involved with the job was professional and left a clean job site. I had an appropriate amount of communication from the main office, letting me know when to expect people to show up for work, and they all showed up when expected. Quality of workmanship is excellent – we would not hesitate to hire Georgia Front Porch again.

Laura L., Norcross, August 2014

Thank You, Thank You…For all your great work over the years … like our portico with the upper rail (shown in your brochure, by the way, and we’re so glad to have our home in your ad) and the great screen porch built 3 years ago, and most recently the wonderful deck replacement you did for us this past summer!

B. Forth, Acworth, Dec. 2015

It went great and I would certainly use Georgia Front Porch again, if needed. Their work was top-notch and their service was impeccable. The process couldn’t have gone any smoother. I worked with Mandie to schedule the various stages of having our portico that was built. Each time someone came to our home to work they were on time, courteous and thoroughly cleaned up once their portion of the job was complete. I would highly recommend Georgia Front Porch.

Suzanne F., Kennesaw, April 2015

Thanks again for our beautiful porch! Neighbors have all stopped to admire the dramatic change to our home

L.Killen, Peachtree Corners, Dec. 2015

The portico they built looksFIVE STARS (Houzz.com) “Georgia Front Porch built a portico on the front of my home. Gary designed both the portico and a porch that would run along the front of the house. I ultimately decided on the portico design. Work included a new stoop made with paver stone that extended into a new sidewalk that went to the driveway. The crew that built the stoop, steps, and sidewalk were very thorough craftsmen. They had a good eye for what would look right for my home. After they finished the painters built out the portico. I wanted rails on both sides of they steps; they crafted them to look right with the design. The porch is painted white. I love the new cover and my neighbors continue to compliment me. The highest one that I received is that the portico looks like it was built with the house since the beginning – not just added on amazing! Their price was so good and the construction crew did such a great job as did the painters. It really added curb appeal to the front of our house. I definitely recommend Georgia Front Porch. Their crew has been with them for 15+ years and you can tell!

FIVE STARS (Houzz.com) “From start to finish both my wife and I were very impressed with everyone at Georgia Front Porch. The quoting process went smoothly and the pictures provided as to how our home would look with the portico really impressed us. The choices provided to us enabled my wife to pick out exactly the look she wanted.

bmedwed, Nov. 2015

FIVE STARS (Houzz.com) “Very professional organization all around. Expectations were clear and the work was done well and on time. Office staff, salesperson, and construction team were all quality human beings that cared about delivering an exceptional product.

berthie598, Mar. 2015

FIVE STARS (Houzz.com) “I now have a portico over my front door to keep me dry when I come home in the rain, and it adds character to the outside of my house. The company did a great job and I would hire them again if I ever decide on building a front porch.

sunnysell985, Mar. 2015

Georgia Front Porch designed a front stoop and portico for the front entrance of our house. They provided computer renderings of what the house would look like with various options including roof lines, columns and different materials. They assisted with contracting the stonework and railing which they don’t do and followed through to inspection. They always called ahead and showed up when they said. Very easy to work with.

Delmar, Johns Creek

We wanted to thank you and your guys for the job well done! The new portico looks great! The work was done quickly, exactly what was promised, they cleaned up after themselves. We haven’t had such a great experience for a long time. Thank you very much!

Vladimir & Gena, Berkley Lake

Barbara & I wanted to send a quick note to You and Dave, and Gary, to tell you how THRILLED we are with the deck-redo that your crew did for us last week. It is beautiful. They could not have done a better job and we could not be happier with the outcome. Thank You, Thank You, AGAIN and AGAIN for a wonderful job!

Bob & Barbara, Acworth

Our new portico looks great! You will receive many calls from friends looking to do the same.

Amy, Norcross

We love the porch and have had at least 25 compliments from the neighbor!

Terri, Alpharetta

Portico looks great — they’ve done a terrific job. Much beyond what we ever expected — particularly with the attention to detail and all the little finishing touches. It is overall a very, very nice job. You should be very proud of your crew!

John S., Sandy Springs

Thank you all so much for the excellent work you do and what you have now completed for us. Our portico looks awesome and the craftsmanship is excellent! I will recommend you to everyone.

Joe, Norcross

Your crew did a great job on our new portico and trim. Nice craftsmanship and we’re VERY pleased!

Mark and Kathy, Roswell

Thank you so much, Gary, for your excellent help. We’re going to go with the first photo. Your ideas are terrific, and if I lived in Georgia, I’d hire you in a second! Many, many thanks again

Karen, Connecticut

The porticos are up! And they look fabulous! Thanks so much

Robyn, Alpharetta

Thanks for coming out to our home to discuss the possibility of adding a front porch to our home. Karen was impressed with your suggestions and knowledge. Sorry I was not there, but her confidence in your ability to provide us with what we want is all I need to know

Mark, Suwanee

I really appreciate Georgia Front Porch’s professionalism, workmanship and level of service demonstrated by your team!

Mike, Norcross

Thanks so much again for the wonderful front porch. We get tons of compliments on it, and give them your name at every opportunity. There’s no porch in Cobb County (maybe anywhere) that can touch it. We love it!

Bob, Acworth

It has been a year since GA Front Porch custom-built a portico for our home. During that time, dealing with many other contractors, I have come to realize that your company is by far the most professional of them all. Not only did you take my husband’s sketches for a design and turn them into a reality that was better than our expectations, but the work was top notch. You guys are responsive in a city of unresponsive contractors and I thank you!

Chris, John’s Creek

Barbara & I just wanted to write and tell you how thrilled we are with the new Front Porch! It is so impressive, and so well built. Everyone that drives into the cul-de-sac slows down to get a good look at it. It is Beautiful. It could not be better. We wanted to say thanks to you and all of the folks who worked with us on this — you did a superb job! It has been a great pleasure for us to work with such a fine group of people who really know their business. Thanks again. We could not be happier.

Bob, Acworth

Words cannot express to you how pleased I am with the work that was done by your team. They are true professionals! Not only are they very skilled, but they handle themselves in such a professional and respectful manner. One could not even tell they had been there with the manner in which they clearned the work area. They were walking around my front yard looking for any debris, no matter how small, that they might have left behind. I can tell you on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the most pleased) I rate the work a 10! Although I know nothing about construction, the job seems to be of very high quality. The only regret I have is that I did not do this 20 years ago. I cannot tell you the number of positive comments I have had from neighbors that have driven by. There is no doubt you will be getting some work from my neighborhood! Thanks again for your professionalism! Let me tell you that I am the type of person that would be complaining if the job was not a quality one so rest assured the above flattery is accurate and well intended.

Mike, Woodstock

Thanks to everyone involved! Super job, guys! We could not have been more pleased. Put us down for a reference; and, give your crew a raise!

Joann and Gus, Alpharetta

We were very pleased with your company. Your rep was prompt and gave great suggestions! Our neighbors recommended you to us and we also passed your name along to others. Thank you again!

Chuck & Shannon, Buford

We wanted to let you know how pleased we are with our new portico. It adds so much curb appeal and fits the house so well, like it was always there. And of course, it also serves its original purpose which is to protect the front door. We are having it painted this week and we know it will look great. We enjoyed working with both of you and Georgia Front Porch and look forward to recommending your company to others.

Hoang & Elizabeth, Dunwoody

I just wanted to let you know how extremely professional your sales person was. He got back to me in less than 24 hours with ideas! Well done!
