"Outstanding Experience with TEMO – Our Patio Cover is a Dream Come True! We recently had a TEMO cathedral-style patio cover installed, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless, professional, and exceeded our expectations. The design of the cathedral roof instantly elevated the look of our backyard – it’s both elegant and functional. The vaulted ceiling gives the space an airy, open feel, and it blends beautifully with our home’s architecture. TEMO’s materials are clearly top quality – everything feels sturdy, well-crafted, and built to last. The team that handled the installation was courteous, punctual, and meticulous. They took great care to ensure everything was installed properly and cleaned up thoroughly after the job. Communication was clear throughout the process, and any questions we had were answered quickly and professionally. We’ve already hosted several gatherings under our new patio cover, and guests constantly compliment the space. It provides excellent shade, keeps the area cooler, and has truly transformed how we use our outdoor space. If you’re considering a patio cover, I highly recommend TEMO. Their craftsmanship, customer service, and product quality are unmatched. We couldn’t be more thrilled!"
"Turf One was at our home a few years ago and did a fantastic job on our brick paver patio and landscaping! Called them again this year for additional paver work as well as a fall clean up and couldn't be happier with the results! Nice to have a company still in business doing such quality work."
"Tom and his crew rebuilt our composite deck in the June-July 2018 time frame. We could not be happier with the job. The Built To Last crew was very professional and definitely went the extra mile to ensure that the rebuilt deck was better than new. Everything is very secure and tight. During the construction, Tom made several suggestions to keep the price down while not compromising quality and our satisfaction. Tom provided price transparencies for all materials. Greatly appreciated! We would definitely use Tom and his crew again. Highly recommend Built To Last Construction. Just as a note... this was a very large deck with a great deal of work."
"Austin Brick Pavers EXCEEDED my (high) expectaions. Not only do we have a BEAUTIFUL patio but the hard-working crew made every phase of this project pleasurable. They are hardworking, respectful and courteous. It was very interesting to watch them all work together in a seemless and harmonious manner, thus finishing our project in a timely manner. Each member (of this amazing crew), has been meticulously taught how to perform their trade with great excellence by Eric, the companies owner. Eric, is a good example to his crew. He is very "hands-on" and works hard right along-side them. He is VERY good at communication and design. Thank you Austin Brick Pavers. We know we will enjoy our BEAUTIFUL Patio for many years to come."

"We contracted with Fun Space for an operable Pergola, Spa, and for them to coordinate the the installation of an aggregate patio with a sub-contractor. From the day we sat down with the salesmen, to the design phase, and then to the final product, the experience can be described as Fantastic!!!!!!!!. The pricing was fair, the promises kept, the time frames met, and the final product beyond our expectations. Concerns were addressed, calls quickly returned, and all of the staff from Ryan, to Jennifer, Christine, Jeff and the installation crews were professionals. If you want a professional and quality product, these are the guys. Keith and Nancy Stanton, Macomb, MI"
Creating a screen room is one of the most cost-effective ways to enclose a patio so you can still use it in the winter. Most screen rooms aren’t insulated, so you’ll need to wrap up warm or use patio heaters in winter. Also, be aware they might not hold up well if you live in a location where heavy snow is common.
A sunroom may count toward your home's total square footage or living space if it meets certain conditions, which can vary by local regulations. Generally, for a sunroom to be included, it must be fully enclosed, properly insulated, and equipped with electrical access and a heating and cooling (HVAC) system, similar to a four-season room. It should also meet the same construction standards as the rest of the house. Three-season sunrooms that function more like enclosed porches typically do not count toward the total square footage and are considered exterior living space.
While there is no one size that’s considered best, the sunroom size that’s best for you will come down to the size of your home and how you want to use your sunroom. Smaller sunrooms under 120 square feet provide a nice semi-outdoor sitting area, medium-sized sunrooms between 120 and 200 square feet can house an outdoor dining area and a small area for additional seating, and large sunrooms over 200 square feet can serve multiple purposes and even include an outdoor kitchen.
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.
A prefab sunroom will last for between 10 and 20 years in most cases, although you could get up to 50 years out of a high-quality prefab sunroom. In addition to material quality, your prefab sunroom’s lifespan will depend on the foundation type and the climate in your area. Extreme weather and expansive soil can decrease the expected life.
