Patio & Deck Builders in Longs, SC

Longs is a small inland community in Horry County, sitting northwest of North Myrtle Beach along the Highway 9 corridor. The housing stock here is predominantly single-family detached homes on larger lots than the beachfront communities, with a mix of older ranch-style homes and newer construction in subdivisions that have grown along the Highway 9 and Highway 905 corridors. The inland location means less direct salt air exposure than coastal Grand Strand properties, but summer heat and humidity are intense, and the flat terrain creates drainage challenges on larger lots after heavy rain. Lot sizes in Longs are generally more generous than in the denser beach communities, which gives homeowners more room to add screen rooms, sunrooms, and hardscape areas without the tight access constraints common closer to the coast.

Larger Lots in Longs Mean More Room for Outdoor Living Additions

Longs properties along the Highway 9 corridor typically have more yard space than the denser beach communities to the east. That extra room makes it practical to add a full screen room, a sunroom addition, or a structured hardscape patio without the tight access and setback constraints that come with smaller coastal lots. The design can be sized to the way the homeowner actually uses the yard rather than compressed to fit a narrow footprint.

Summer heat in Longs is intense from June through September, and the flat inland terrain holds heat longer than properties with coastal breezes. A screen room or sunroom with proper ventilation design makes the outdoor space usable through the hottest months rather than abandoned until fall. The insect pressure from the surrounding rural landscape — mosquitoes and gnats in particular — adds another reason to enclose the space rather than leave it open.

The flat terrain in Longs creates drainage considerations that affect how hardscape patios and pool enclosure bases are designed. Standing water after heavy summer rain is a real issue on larger lots without proper grade and drainage planning. Getting the base preparation and slope right before any paver or concrete work is poured prevents the water pooling that damages both the hardscape surface and the structure anchored to it.

Every service, available in Longs, SC

Screen and Sunroom Services are the primary request in Longs, where summer heat and heavy insect pressure from June through October make enclosed outdoor spaces a practical upgrade for homeowners with larger yards. Outdoor Living and Hardscapes work is well-suited to the generous lot sizes along the Highway 9 and Highway 905 corridors, where homeowners have room for structured patio areas, pergolas, and hardscape additions that would not fit on a tighter coastal lot. Pool Enclosure Service is relevant for the newer subdivisions where private pools are more common, and the flat terrain means drainage around the enclosure base needs to be planned carefully to avoid standing water after summer storms.

David and his team did a fabulous job redoing and new roof in my Carolina room. I used to hate that room because of the heat and floods every time it rains. New roof screens and vinyl’s cleaned up looking like new. Now I can enjoy my room year round. No worries how hot the room will get. I was recommended by a neighbor here in South Creek as they had their room redone. The team was very thorough and made sure everything was done perfectly. I would highly recommend him and his team from back porch designs

Dave and his team built us a beautiful screen room. They created exactly what our concept drawings depicted. Its sturdy, well built, stylish, and we look forwards to years of enjoyment. His team are professional, fast, and efficient. Additionally, they built a vinyl garbage can enclosure. Definitely exceeded expectations. Additionally, I could not find a contractor in the Myrtle Beach area that would build me a screen room with a screen roof (i.e. a lanai). I knew I had to find someone with Florida roots, and Dave's extensive experience building these types of structures in Florida was perfect for what I wanted.

I had the pleasure of dealing with David and his team to do work at my house. I needed new screens and he also replaced my vinyl windows at the top with glass and it came out great. I would highly recommend him and his company for your all your back porch needs. I can't believe how great it looks.

David is a great guy. Very trustworthy and kind, thoughtful, honest and willing to do whatever it takes to make his customers happy. My friend and I have worked with him on many different projects and he has never let me down or annoyed me to death. Thank you BackPorch for being a great company.

I highly recommend Back Porch Designs. They installed a porch enclosure for us and it was done professionally, courteously and as promised. David and his whole crew were a pleasure to work with from the initial design, product selection through installation and one minor leak which was repaired quickly. Hats off. Wife loves her new "she shed". Thanks David, etal. Mark & Patti
