"Patio Enclosures was fantastic, the subcontractors that came to do the job were not. However, Patio Enclosures sent two Field Supervisors over to spend and entire day addressing all of our concerns. Overall, their customer service is what made us happy with this project and we absolutely love our 3-season room!"
"Our experience with Buresh was excellent from beginning to end. Brian was great to work with, gave us various options for covering our patio, and came in at the cost quoted. The louvered roof is of very high quality, and one year in, we absolutely love the product. It was a bit more expensive than we were hoping to spend, but I would definitely use Buresh again for any home improvement projects we have. They're a great team! "

"Wonderful. They came on time and finished in two days. They cleaned up along the new patio and sidewalk replaced grass to sidewalk and patio. We had no work to do except water the grass."
"We had a major hailstorm that damaged our roof. After a visit from the insurance adjuster, we were told that it damaged only the west side of the house. And off I went to Angie's List. I have had extremely good experience in the past with the route and hoped that good luck would prevail - and it did! I selected 2 of the top roofing companies on the list for quotes. Both quotes were for the same work but the first came in far above both the adjuster's quote as well as the second quote from DeWit. Since I appreciated Tim Woldswinkel's candor and communication skills, I told him we would go with him if he could promise two things: the job would be completed in one day and the site would be spotless when he completed the job (i.e. no nails strewn throughout the lawn, driveway, and sidewalks. He told me he would be there at 8:00 AM and sure enough, he and his crew were there as promised. Because I knew nteiher the brand nor color of our original shingles, he had to remove them and take samples to the supplier to determine a match. I received a call mid-morning indicating that upon removal of the shingled he found 3 rotting sheathing boards and recommended that they be replaced. He gave me the total cost for purchase and installation (i thought very reasonable) and I gave him the go ahead to replace them. I came home mid-afternoon to find the roof well on its way to completion and the rotting boards in the driveway so that he could show me what was replaced. He told me he had walked the whole roof to ensure there was no other damage and there was none and took the time to explain why he thought the sheathing had rotted (initial installation issues), and what was left to complete. He again assured me that the roof would be done before end of day and they site would be cleaned. As the last roofer finished, i watched from inside my house, another one using a broom to our back deck, a blower on the patio, driveway, and sidewalks, and a large magnet over all (including the grass which was on the other side of the house) picking up nails. Upon inspection, it was truly cleaner than before they started and none of my plants or trees were damaged. The next morning as we were leaving for vacation (nothing like cutting it close), i noticed that several of the shingled were not laying flat on the roof so i gave Tim a call. he assured me that because the weather was cold, they shingled were a little stiff and they would "relax" in a few days but to make sure that I gave him a call if they didn't. We just came back from vacation, and sure enough, those shingles are as flat as ever, just as he promised. Tim emailed me a Certificate of Completion that I just sent to the insurance company for the remaining reimbursement as well as his bill. At the time I contracted with him, he was offering a "coupon: for 5% off from Angie's List, and he remembered to deduct the 5% from the bill. I just got through mailing him his check and couldn?t be more pleased with the experience. My co-worker asked how the job went, I told her my good experience and she asked for his card, so hopefully, he can expect additional business. Thanks, Tim, for a great job (and that extra note about recycling all of the old shingles and metal, rather than just dumping them was also great to know!) "
Your maintenance needs revolve around the type of foundation you choose, as well as how you furnish or decorate it. Patios require little else other than the occasional hose-down, but decks and other wooden structures will require annual power washing and sealing. You may also need to restain the wood every two to three years.
Adding a solid roof rather than building a pergola or leaving the space open will make maintenance much easier. Without a roof, you will need to spend more time sweeping, washing, and covering your furniture to protect it from UV bleaching.
A sunroom is worth installing on a deck, both for the value and your own enjoyment. A Florida room addition costs between $10,000 and $140,000, so it’s pretty expensive. However, a quality sunroom can offer a 50% return on investment, making your home more sellable. Plus, if it’s a space you and your family enjoy relaxing in daily for years to come, it’s worth the money, time, and effort, even without the added monetary value.
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.
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.
Yes, adding a sunroom can increase your home's value, with a return on investment (ROI) ranging from 20% for a screen room to 50% for a three- or four-season room. The amount of value added depends on the design. Fully insulated, temperature-controlled four-season sunrooms add the most value as they can be included in the home's total living space. In contrast, simpler structures like Arizona rooms or solariums typically have a lower return as they don't count as legal living space. A high-quality sunroom can also be an attractive feature for potential buyers, especially those who enjoy gardening. The value may also be higher in warmer climates where this feature is more sought after. When deciding, consider both the potential resale value and the personal value you will get from using the room.
