What is the Difference Between a Porch, Patio, Veranda & Lanai Enclosure?

Are you dreaming of a porch, patio, deck, veranda, or a screen enclosure? Would 
a veranda or lanai enclosure make it easier to enjoy the beauty of the world right 
outside your door? 

Many homeowners in Florida already have an outdoor patio or lanai connected to 
their home. Let us first differentiate the porch, patio, veranda, deck, and lanai.  
Porch


The term porch is a fresh air area unenclosed and at the main floor height - an 
extension of the home living area outside. Porches are usually constructed of 
wood and in Marco Island, Bonita Springs, Naples, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, 
Port Charlotte, North Port, Venice, Estero, Punta Gorda, and Lehigh Acres
sometimes covered with tile. It is a structure that is attached to a house that serves 
as a place to sit or as access to the house.

A patio is one level that is even with the ground. Construction is generally pavers, 
brick, stone, or concrete. A patio is usually added directly to the rear of a home 
and often has a table and chairs for outdoor dining.

Decks can be one, two, or even more levels. While a patio is ground level, a deck 
is raised from the ground by at least a few inches. A deck can be multi-level. 

Make the most out of your outdoor space by installing a deck enclosure.  A deck 
enclosure will also keep out other pesky varmints such as birds, mice, squirrels, 
bees, and any other animals that can put a damper on anyone’s time outdoors. 


Veranda

A Veranda is the same as a deck although usually larger and more expansive. It 
may wrap around the house and often has a railing. Veranda tends to be used as 
a term more in the south. Verandas are often thought of as being used for 
entertaining guests. It may be a large porch that’s a room for entertaining or it may 
be a gallery running along one or more sides of the home, roofed, perhaps with 
a railing.


Lanai

The term Lana’i is Hawaiian. It describes a specific type of porch. This term is 
used typically in tropical climates as we have here in Florida. It may be screened 
in or have sliding glass panels. Wood, finished cement, or tile is frequently used 
for floor covering. 

Fortunately, regardless of what you call all these structures; a porch, a patio, a 
veranda, deck, or a lanai, they all can provide the perfect base for a sunroom 
screen enclosure. Most Florida homes particularly in Marco Island, Bonita 
Springs, Naples, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Port Charlotte, North Port, Venice, 
Estero, Punta Gorda, and Lehigh Acres have this installed to extend their home 
to family, friends, and guests.

Enhance your home and have your sunroom screen enclosure Bonita Springs  
designed and installed professionally and promptly. Your beautiful, new sunroom 
screen enclosure will provide an outside entertainment area for barbecue parties 
and other social activities. 

With a sunroom screen enclosure Naples, you can relax and enjoy the beauty 
of the outdoors with the bonus of improved privacy and enhanced security. Sitting 
outdoors on a porch, patio, deck, veranda, or lanai watching the Florida sunset 
is nice, but watching a Florida sunset in comfort from inside a sunroom screen 
enclosure is even better.

Perfect in all seasons, a sunroom screen enclosure offers homeowners the 
ability to create extra indoor space, conveniently and cost-effectively.
