Trex Havana Gold & Spiced Rum Composite Decks

Two-Story Trex Porch in the Upstate: Double the Views, Double the Enjoyment

When it comes to outdoor living, why settle for one level when you can have two? Our latest project showcases a stunning two-story porch built with premium Trex decking, offering a perfect blend of elegance, performance, and year-round usability. Designed with both relaxation and entertainment in mind, this porch doubles the space for gathering, unwinding, and enjoying the beauty of your surroundings.

Whether you’re watching the sunrise from the upper level or hosting an intimate dinner on the lower level, this project proves that outdoor living can be as stylish and functional as any room inside your home.

Upper Level: An Elevated Outdoor Experience

The upper level of this porch is all about connection with the outdoors. Here, you can enjoy panoramic views, soak in the morning sun, or entertain guests in a light-filled, airy space.

Perfect for:

Weekend brunches with family
Evening cocktails with friends
Quiet mornings with a cup of coffee and a good book

The open design ensures natural airflow, making it comfortable during warm Upstate summers, while the sturdy Trex decking provides a solid, beautiful foundation underfoot.

Lower Level: Shaded Comfort and Year-Round Enjoyment

Directly beneath the upper porch is a cool, shaded retreat that stays comfortable even during the hottest days. It’s the perfect space for lazy summer afternoons, reading in the shade, or enjoying the sound of a gentle rain without getting wet.

In cooler months, the lower level transforms into a cozy gathering spot, ideal for:

Outdoor dining by a firepit
Lounging with blankets and hot cocoa
Hosting game nights or casual get-togethers

By offering two unique atmospheres in one structure, this porch gives homeowners unmatched flexibility in how they use their space.

Built with Trex Decking: The Best of Both Worlds

This project features Trex composite decking, known for combining the timeless beauty of natural wood with the unmatched durability of modern composite materials.

Key benefits include:

Weather resistance – Won’t warp, crack, or splinter
Fade and stain resistance – Keeps its color and finish with minimal upkeep
Low maintenance – No sanding, staining, or sealing required
Eco-friendly – Made from recycled materials, supporting sustainable building

These qualities make Trex the ideal choice for a multi-level porch in the Upstate, where varying weather conditions can be tough on traditional wood.

Craftsmanship that Stands the Test of Time

Every DG Builders project reflects expert craftsmanship and attention to detail. From the framing to the railing, every component was carefully measured, cut, and installed to ensure both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.

The design of this two-story porch also integrates seamlessly with the existing home’s architecture, creating a cohesive look that feels intentional and timeless.

Perfect for Upstate Living

Living in the Upstate means having access to beautiful landscapes, mild seasons, and plenty of sunshine—and this porch was designed to make the most of it. The upper level captures sweeping views of the property, while the lower level invites you to step directly into the backyard for barbecues, games, or gardening.

For homeowners who love entertaining outdoors, this porch offers:

Space for large gatherings without feeling crowded
Separate zones for different activities
A layout that encourages flow between indoors and outdoors

A Space for Every Moment

What makes this project truly special is its versatility. It’s not just a porch—it’s a multi-functional extension of the home. One moment, it’s a lively party space; the next, it’s a peaceful retreat. It’s where memories will be made, from birthday celebrations to quiet Sunday mornings.
