Some time we use metal poles under the porch and in the front and rear verandah but their look/ view is not up to the mark. Where as brick pillars constructed under the porch or in boundary wall or boundary gate pillars are very majestic-looking, and provide good elevation and give a beautiful architectural look. Brick pillars can be designed to match the existing exterior fascia of the home for providing good looking elevation. Brick pillars are strong, and will live longer than metal or wooden support used in the structures.
