A porch is a wonderful place to sit outside with a book on the weekends, host a summer party with friends, or watch the sunset after a long day at work.
If you’re lucky enough to have a home with porches, you’ll no doubt want to enjoy them. That’s why Big Easy Iron Works offer quality New Orleans porch enclosures to help you enjoy your porches without incident.
Unfortunately, bugs and the elements can put a damper on outdoor lounging on the porch, turning an otherwise enjoyable experience into an unbearable situation.
When the rainy and storm season starts, your plans to enjoy the outdoors may all too often be cut short by inclement weather.
As a porch enclosure supplier, we’re able to enhance homeowners’ decks, patios and porches by protecting them (and you) from the elements, allowing you to enjoy your porch rain or shine.

Deck enclosures, porch enclosures, sunrooms, and other similar structures all share one common theme: they protect you from bugs and weather that might make outdoor activities unpleasant, using barriers such as framed screens, panels, overhead extensions, or other structures to enhance the space.
There are a variety of customizable features you can pick from to complete your porch cover.
Some of the options available through our service includes the following:
When we reach our rainy season, staying indoors can be discouraging. With a sunroom enclosure, however, you can sit outside and watch the rainfall on the glass – it’s almost therapeutic. You could even do yoga, host a family gathering, or work on a craft project “in the rain.”
For these reasons, many of our clients choose a sunroom installation for their back porch.
A porch enclosure is a slightly different type of enclosure. With a sunroom installation, we will come to your property and build an entirely new structure over an existing porch area (or add a porch area as part of the sunroom).
With a porch enclosure, however, our clients typically have an existing roof over their porch area. We simply come to construct walls that shield our clients from bugs and weather. These can be screens or glass, with accents in different materials to complement your home.
Porch enclosures are best for those hot, humid days where you need shelter from both the sun and the bugs. Shade from your porch cover provides relief from the sun, while your porch enclosure walls will keep out bugs. They can also provide a cozy atmosphere for hosting outdoor family meals while it rains.
Many of our clients with existing porches choose porch enclosures as a solution to their bug and weather challenges.

“Great job on the iron gates! I can’t believe they finished installing the iron gate and repairing our fence. A lot of my neighbors recommended Big Easy Iron Works and I can see why they trust them so much. Very professional workers came and the owner checked up from time to time. Great experience.”
– Vanessa Johnson“You have my respect for Big Easy Iron Works! Thank you for staying true to your word about quality service. They helped install our new iron fence and it exceeded my expectations to be honest. They explained everything they would be doing every day of the job. I really recommend them for those living in New Orleans. Hire them for your fencing needs.”
– Billy Anderson“I contacted Big Easy Iron Works because most of my neighbors recommended them to me. I am satisfied with the time that they took to finish the work repairs with my wood fence. The fences they placed turned out nice and they looked like they would last longer. I would also recommend them to my friends in New Orleans.”
