Screened Porches Bring Comfort Outdoors in Cary, NC
A screened porch is the perfect blend of indoor comfort and outdoor freedom.

Whether it’s a quiet morning coffee or a breezy afternoon nap, it’s your space to relax without the hassle.
In Cary, NC, screened porches are a popular choice because they add usable square footage without the cost of a full addition. You can enjoy the outdoors longer (rain or shine) without worrying about mosquitoes or scorching sun. It’s a practical upgrade that adds charm, value, and everyday comfort to your home.
Outdoor Porch Enclosure Installation Upgrades Your Space
Already have a porch but want to get more out of it? An outdoor porch enclosure installation is the perfect way to turn that open space into a comfy, usable room. You’re dreaming of a peaceful place to read, a spot for summer dinners, or just more shade? That’s right, enclosing your porch is exactly what you need, as it gives you flexibility and comfort all year long.
Enclosures help protect your space from the elements (like rain, wind, and insects), so you can enjoy the outdoors without worrying about what the weather’s doing. You also get to choose features that make your porch feel like part of your home, such as:
- Durable screens and materials that last through every season,
- Weatherproof doors and windows to block wind and rain,
- Comfortable ceiling fans and lighting for day and night use,
- Matching siding and trim for a polished, built-in look.
It’s all about creating a space that works better for the way you live.

What Our Customers Say
Real Feedback from Homeowners Who Transformed Their Outdoor Spaces
I custom drew my deck design. Everything went smooth from Brooke (my sales person), Alfredo (project manager), Junior (crew leader), Eric (VP of productions), tear crew and construction crew. Communication, price and finished product was better than I expected. Thanks to everyone and if I missed anyone sorry.
From the first preliminary meeting through the working out of a contract, from design (and redesign) through the execution and completion of our gorgeous new screened-in porch, we found all the Elite Exterior people to be affable, flexible, and competent.
Our project was not a simple one, our yard being on a serious slope; further, they had to make special allowances and adaptations for our five pets, who range from 9 pounds to 100 pounds (!).
We like it that Elite organizes the work into expert and efficient teams – in our case, one for building the deck, another for the covered porch, and a third for electric.
I’d hire them again in a heartbeat.

Josh did amazing job, and screened porch look awesome!
Excellent experience and quality work. Salesman Mike was great, no pressure. Work was done quickly. Highly recommend.
We just had a deck completed by Elite Xteriors and couldn’t be happier with the results! Their team was professional and responsive.
They showed up when they said they would, kept the work area clean, and communicated with us throughout the entire process. The finished deck looks awesome!
I highly recommend Elite Xteriors!

Super great people to work with - we ended up asking for pavers because we didn’t have space for a deck and they delivered. I was impressed with the level of communication from the Elite team and they were all pleasant to work with. We will definitely consider them if we decide to build out further!
Very professional,great workmanship and top grade materials
Elite Xteriors built a fantastic deck for our home in Wake Forest. From the daily clean up to the finished product everything was done with perfection. The crew was professional, but also friendly. The crew’s team lead, Alfredo was great communicating options as the build was in progress. The sales person Josh was very helpful and the owner, Brian was also extremely helpful with our process. You could not ask for a better team to work on your home. We are so pleased with the outcome
Our deck build from start to finish was excellent. Communication with Brian and the builders was efficient, whenever I had a question or concern they answered right away. They were very patient with my indecisiveness and went out of their way to make sure I got the product I wanted. I highly recommend Elite Exterior for anyone wanting a deck or outdoor space.
Excellent work, far beyond exceeding expectations! Baseline quality of work is so extremely high. You need not worry about things being done with attention to detail. I hope that this company maintains this quality of work as their business grows. We will certainly use them again, and recommend their company to all of our friends.
Elite Xteriors was an excelent choice for my deck resurface. I had 4 other quotes, and they were $18,000 cheaper than any other quote I received. They showed up each morning and worked all day even when the weather was in the 20's. They completed the job in a timely fashion completing a deck of over 700 square feet in 5 days. They even used an engineer's report to complete a reenforcement of the deck for a hot tub. When the deck was done a gentlemen came and ask me if everything was OK. There were a few minor things that needed to be done to complete the job. Elite had someone out the same morning and fixed the few things that needed to be done. Elite Xteriors is a professional business that takes pride in their work, and it showed when my deck was complete.
If anyone is looking to build a deck, resurface, or repair a deck then this company is for you. I would use them again and highly recommend them for the job. Thanks to Elite Xteriors for a job well done.

Excellent work from the sales rep to the admin team to the crew. Well communicated thru the process and efficient workers. The crew wasted no time getting the deck built in two and a half days. I’m very happy with the end result. We will definitely have them come out to help with our other projects.
I love our new porch! The building process was super easy, and I can’t wait to enjoy the space now that the weather is getting warmer.
Elite Xteriors built a very nice 12×20 deck for us using Moisture Shield Meridian. Every thing from start to finish went as expected. The sales person was very patient with all of my questions and made sure I had a good understanding of all details. They even came out a second time to go over all of the final details before I moved ahead with the purchase. Once we agreed to a contract they came out within a week and did a site survey and then within a week of that did a drawing and then a week after that they started demo on site they were in and out within three days. All of the craftsmanship was done very well, very hard workers and attention to detail. All communication between me and the company was professional and timely. Overall, I would recommend this company for dependable and quality work.
All around great experience. They were on time, worked hard, and did a very nice job. Elite is not cheap, but they are worth the money in my opinion. Now our previous ugly wood deck is a distant memory!
This locally owned company was very conscientious and I highly recommend them. I’m so happy with their customer service - attention to detail - thorough and honest evaluation of my project - professionalism, work ethic and knowledge of the entire company and crew - and communication during the whole process.
Mike (salesman) took time to inspect my deck thoroughly - evaluating the condition of all structural parts. This was important as Elite Xteriors does more than just decks – so they would notice and take care of any unforeseen problems - not ignore them as other companies might.
He explained the pros and cons of wood VS composite decking: comparing durability, sustainability, maintenance required, and overall cost. Additionally, he compared the pros and cons of each of the 3 major composite brands for traction when wet, heat resistance in summer, cost, warrantee, customer complaints, warping or fading, etc. We reviewed layout and design options, railing and color choices, quality of materials, construction training for their crews, and updating everything to code.
The estimate was a detailed cost breakdown that held true until the end. Payment options and schedule were presented, so there were no surprises.
I called the composite manufacturer for free color samples – and they said Elite Xteriors was an exceptionally good company, and I would be very happy with them – very reassuring to hear!
Project Manager, Maegan, came over to re-review all the details and measurements, set up materials and dumpster delivery dates, and schedule install dates – keeping to the timeline as promised.
Alfredo Jr was my exceptional crew leader. David and his brothers, Arnold and Jorge, were my exceptional crew. They arrived on time every day, were respectful of my property and cleaned up well daily. I enjoyed watching them work as they were so conscientious – noticing every detail with a good eye for balance – leveling, centering, double checking placement and measurements etc. They obviously enjoy their work and take pride in what they do.
The crew noticed, evaluated, and repaired unexpected wood rot on the window ledger board and backdoor band board. They removed the insufficient flashing and replaced it with proper flashing to prevent the problem from reoccurring. The few Hardie Plank siding boards that needed to be removed were replaced - exactly matching the existing style - and the new seams were caulked. (My sister is an architect. I showed her photos of the damage and repair process. She stopped by my house – totally impressed that they were doing everything so well!)
The crew remembered each concern I mentioned about particulars I still had questions about - and took the time to discuss each one with me before cutting and installing. I really appreciated their patience with me, especially as we went over the railing details and as I rummaged through the extra materials to recycle or save them.
Owners, Eric and Brian, personally checked on my project and did a final walk through when it was completed. Overall, I was totally impressed with everything from start to finish. I look forward to finding a pretty doormat, putting pots of spring flowers on the new deck, and hosting a party!

Amazing work and Amazing Team
Great service, delivered exactly what we wanted.
I normally don’t write reviews, however, Elite Xteriors delivered beyond my expectations. They built a screened in porch deck enclosure and it looks amazing. Eric, Josh, Brian and the rest of their specialized work crews were outstanding to work with and made the experience painless. The entire process was well organized and planned, with many touch points along the way. The quality of workmanship, in my opinion, is top notch and I have a discerning eye. Despite being out of Cary, this project was in Wake Forest and they were always prompt and communicative. Any question or concern that I had were always addressed quickly. Can’t say enough good things about them. I would highly recommend Elite Xteriors to anyone who wants their project done right.
I recently had Elite Xteriors NC build a covered porch and an extension deck, and the entire experience exceeded every expectation. They may not be the lowest‑cost option, but the difference in quality and professionalism was obvious from day one.
Every member of the crew—from the Project Manager to the builders—approached the job with real ownership and pride. They communicated clearly, solved unexpected issues before they became problems, and treated my home with the kind of care you rarely see in the construction world.
The finished porch and deck look fantastic, with craftsmanship that speaks for itself. I’m genuinely thrilled with the result and already planning to work with Elite Xteriors NC again on future projects. Highly recommended.

Deck looks awesome! Great experience and would highly recommend these guys for your deck.
Elite Xteriors did an amazing job on my patio enclosure. From start to finish, the process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. I worked directly with the owner, Brian, and his communication, attention to detail, and commitment to quality really stood out. The install was efficient, and the final result exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Elite Xteriors to anyone looking for top-notch workmanship and outstanding customer service.
Megan is the best! This crew was so professional and friendly. Communication was awesome. Would highly recommend
Elite Xteriors has been a top notch experience. Josh and Megan were so helpful taking us through this process. From planning out how we want our deck to look to the HOA approval process and permits. The crews that came were quick, professional, clean and always on time. Our deck is beautiful. Highly recommend.
Truly outstanding quality, workmanship and work! Extremely pleased and satisfied with the job!
Our experience with Elite Xteriors was fantastic! The workmanship was excellent and everything turned out even better than we hoped. I would recommend them for any project. The workers were polite, on time, and obviously very experienced and proud of their work. We are very satisfied! Great job!
I had a great experience with EliteXteriors. They came and tore down the old deck in a couple of hours. The next day they put in the new deck and had the final walkthrough the following day. They cleaned up everything, and you can’t tell they were here except where they put in the new leggings and footings.
Elite Xteriors did a fabulous job with my home projects. The tore down an old deck, took care of disposing of the old wood, built a deck and added a porch. I also ordered and had a new exterior door installed. Everyone involved - Mike, Maegan, Eric, Brad, CJ, & Caesar - were responsive to my questions and did everything possible to accommodate my requests. All crew members showed up as scheduled (and on time!), were respectful of the property and cleaned up at the end of each work day. I recommend Elite Xteriors
for any building project based on their professionalism, the quality of materials used and of course the finished product!

Elite built our new deck in Wake Forest. The craftmanship and quality is amazing! We definitely recommend using them for your next exterior home project!
Elite Xteriors is by far the best company that I reached out to build a new deck for me. The customer service was amazing throughout the entire process. Brooke was absolutely amazing during the inital consultation, she was patient and went through all of the options with me. Brian was readily available with any questions that I had and was very respectful throughout the entire process. The building crew was overall very neat and communicated throughout each day of building. I couldn’t be happier with the result.
My Renaissance cover looks amazing! Can’t wait to start enjoying it.
I am writing this review of EliteXteriors for my decking project.
I selected EliteXteriors after a truly exhaustive vendor/product comparison. Not only of materials, but of cost, reviews, installation vendors, etc. Elite lived up to my expectations of a quality decking result. Their sales rep Mike, Project Manager Maegan, and their decking installation team went well above and beyond to ensure my needs were met. Mike worked harder than any sales rep I have done business with. I am truly happy with the result of my deck. My only recommendation for others considering Elite is like working with any vendor to ensure the punch down list is in writing and explained. Overall, this project from begining to end has been exceptional. I would highly recommend EliteXteriors to anyone. I would select them again for my next project. Thank You! Great job! Best. Rick
