"I cannot recommend JP & his crew enough! Not only does our yard look beautiful, but the entire process from start to finish was absolutely seamless. JP came out the same day I requested a quote and started work the following week. Other contractors told me they couldn't get the tiles I wanted but Angel Sun was able to deliver. They were extremely communicative and walked us through the entire process. Overall extremely reliable & easy to work with. We can't wait to have Angel Sun back in the spring to complete our yard with greenery."
"I received a call from the company in February getting back to my interest in their patio shades during a home show that we attended in the fall. I guess their backlog of inquiries kept them from getting back in touch with me in a shorter period of time, but since I have so many other irons in the fire, this wasn't a problem. The salesman who came out was helpful and courteous when presenting the range of patio shades that are offered by the company, and did a good job of taking dimensions and working up the quote for me. Since the shades are custom, I paid approximately two-thirds down, with the rest to be paid after installation. The installation 3 weeks later went without any problems. The two installers were courteous and professional, and when finished showed me how to use the controls. I was concerned about how well they would get the electrical power to the shades from the outside outlet. They had to make a?separate small hole in the stucco to get the cable to the underside of the patio roof, but patched well enough to make the area blend in with the rest of the wall. coming out and over to the shades was done through steel conduit and boxes, which they painted with the paint I had on hand so that everything blended together. I definitely prefer the electric drive for these shades, and they blend well with the rest of the house. I only gave a score of "Good" for pricing, since I don't like to spend money to begin with, and really didn't get multiple quotes from other companies, since the other companies didn't ever get back to me. I suppose other company's shades would have been in the same price range."
"John and his crew did an excellent job of painting the whole exterior of the house. They did everything John said they would do plus. Everything was better than I expected. I would recommend John and his crew to anyone that needs a house painted."
"The crew was awesome and super respectful through the entire process. They made it a very personable experience for me and the finish product came out incredible. I would recommend them to anyone!"
"Rodrigo and his crew did an amazing job and even finished earlier than expected. They were very courteous, prompt, and professional. Great communication and the electronic payment transaction was very easy."
"He was the general contractor for the project and sent out a painter. I had requested for a seam between the two rooms to be fixed and that was my main concern. The painter really didn’t do what I asked him. He then offered to come back out to fix everything. We fixed some of it ourselves, but the painter did end up having someone else to fix it. The general contractor did offer us Price cut because of all the problems. I would never use the painter again. However, he made right on everything. They were very apologetic and nice on the phone, I just wasn’t happy with the recommendation on the painter."
"I would use the service again. They were a good hometown people, has a good reputation, and did good quality work. I like them, I would continue to use the service and they would be my first choice in concrete work."
The life span of your solarium will depend on the materials used and how much wear and tear the room experiences from the inside and from the outside due to weather. On average, you can expect your solarium to last anywhere from 10 years to 50 or more. In rare cases, such as with old estates, solariums can last over 100 years.
A screened-in porch can add value to your home, with a potential return on investment (ROI) of 70% to 84%. The actual value added depends heavily on several factors. Climate is a major consideration; homes in warm, humid, or buggy areas (like the Southern regions) see the highest ROI. In colder climates, the value is diminished as the unconditioned space is unusable for much of the year. Other factors that influence the return include the quality of materials and construction, the size of the porch, and the local real estate market. While a screened-in porch can enhance curb appeal and attract potential buyers, it is not included in the home's total square footage for appraisal purposes.
An enclosed porch can be considered a living space if it meets certain criteria. For instance, it must be completely enclosed with solid walls and a roof. It should also have a heating and cooling source similar to the rest of the home. Finally, the porch should have direct access to and from the interior of your house.
Yes, enclosing a patio to create a sunroom or three-season room is often a good idea that adds value to your home. This project increases your home's usable square footage and creates a versatile space for relaxing or entertaining that is filled with natural light and can be used in various weather conditions. Homeowners may see an average return on investment (ROI) of around 70%. The final value added will depend on factors such as the quality of the materials, the level of finish, and the amount of yard space that remains after the enclosure.
A lanai is a covered patio with open walls, while a Florida room has sides made of mesh screens or windows, with or without partial low walls. In addition, lanais often use concrete or other patio flooring, while Florida rooms may have more indoor-style flooring like tile or wood. Both allow you to enjoy the outdoors without being in the direct sun, but a lanai doesn’t offer any barrier against insects or debris.
