"I can't say enough great things about working with JK Company for our patio. Tino was extremely professional from the first time we met during our consultation to the very last day of the project. He walked us through each step of the process to ensure that we understood all of our options that we had on our plate. With all of his years of experience, he made this patio project (which ended up being a 1500 sq foot patio) a delight to deal with. Putting in patio of that size is a HUGE investment and I wouldn't think twice about doing it all over again with Tino and the rest of the crew at JK Company. True experts in the space and I hope that others take advantage of their work as well....overall GREAT experience! I couldn't be happier with the finished product."

"I have built patios myself in the past so I felt comfortable selecting the blocks and creating the design. I purchased the blocks, the lights, and the pump and waterfall for the project. Harvey and team made the dream come to life and added their own spin on the design. I was happy to let them have some artistic choices as we went along."

"We have used Roberto Torres and his company for about 4 years now. Aside from awesome weekly landscaping (grass, edging, weeds, trees & bushes), he has also changed out our flower beds and front landscaping and last year removed a dog run and old shrubs and put pavers down to expand my patio. Always prompt, always fair, always high quality work. If you need a reliable service, don’t scroll further. This is the company to use!!"

"Excellent! Very good service from the initial estimate to the completion of the patio. 3D gave us good suggestions, were patient though our selection of stones, and did the installation beautifully with great care. The results were even better than we could have hoped. Highly recommended."

Patios questions, answered by experts

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.

Several types of porches are available to meet your needs and style preferences. Some common porch types include:

  • Porticos are essentially a roof over a walkway leading to the home's front entrance. 

  • Sunrooms are closed-in porches that are an extension of the house with glass or plastic panels that allow optimal sunlight. 

  • Wraparound porches extend around the entire home, or at least the front and one side, and offer multiple entrances to the house.

  • Back porches are an extension of the home’s floor into the outdoors. These offer more protection and privacy than a deck.

A screened-in porch can add value to your home, but it won’t count toward the total square footage at an appraisal or when it comes time to sell. A screened-in porch is not fully enclosed, usable year-round, insulated, or heated or cooled, so it doesn’t meet the requirements of livable square footage in most locations.

Prefab kits like a small sunroom for around $20,000 or even a basic gazebo roof for as little as $60 can save you big over professional installation. However, you lose the option for customization, and these structures tend not to last nearly as long. As for bigger projects like a deck or patio, you shouldn’t go with the DIY route unless you’re fully prepped with the tools and know-how to get it done right. Mistakes can be frustrating and costly, so choose a pro if you’re looking to eliminate your risk of error.

A Florida room is a home addition that has finished walls with windows lining the perimeter, while a screened-in porch, also known as an Arizona room, lacks windows and instead has screens to maintain constant ventilation. Florida rooms provide longer enjoyment throughout the year because they’re closed off and will naturally get heated from the sun, while a screened-in porch will just be the same temperature as the ambient air.
