Are you looking to build an addition onto your home but aren’t sure what type is best for you? Since your home is one of the biggest investments that you will ever make, why not add value to it with a sunroom addition. This affordable addition offers numerous options that will add additional space and enhance your home. Besides the major cost difference, sunrooms can be installed in a fraction of the time a traditional addition takes.

Sunroom Additions - Types & Options

Screen Rooms

Whether you are looking to add a brand new room onto your home or want to screen-in or enclose an existing patio or porch space, we can handle your project. A screen room is an affordable option that keeps the bugs and yard debris out while allowing the breeze into your space.

Three Season Rooms

Patio Enclosures three season rooms are a great addition for homeowners who want to enjoy the outdoors from the comfort of their home, but do not necessarily need the living space all year-round. This option is more affordable than a four season room and it extends its use to three seasons: spring, summer, and fall. If you live in a warm to mild climate, a three season room may be perfect for you all year long.

Four Season Rooms

If you are looking to add year-round living space to your home, a four season room is the best option for you. These rooms are manufactured with thermal breaks throughout the structure and double-pane, high-performance Comfort-Gard® insulated glass, so you can heat and cool your room cost-effectively. A Patio Enclosures four season room, also known as an all season room, is constructed with either vinyl or aluminum framing and includes a 6-inch roof for added insulation and protection against maximum wind and snow loads. Whether you decide to go elaborate or simple, there are options available for every budget.

Solariums

With glass walls and a glass roof, a Patio Enclosures solarium gives you unobstructed views of your surroundings, including the sky. Each room is manufactured with one-inch-thick double-pane, high-performance Comfort-Gard insulated glass to improve heating and cooling performance.
