"Father Paver did a highly professional and superb job build an in-ground firepit and patio for my yard. They were very meticulous to meet my specifications and expectations and it was a wonderful experience. I would definitely recommend them, and I intend on using them in the new year for follow-on work in other parts of my property."
"Perfect. Brian and his crew did a fantastic job! I’ve asked him if o tackle another project for me. I will definitely use him for any future projects. Thank you for selecting quality contractors."
"Tim re-installed patio brick pavers and step in backyard area which had sunk over the years. Very professional, workers showed up when promised, competitive pricing, removed debris from patio tear out and re-finishing."
"Domenico and his team are true perfectionists and the work shows. We used them at our Birmingham house several years ago for a patio design and build, and when we moved out last spring, it still looked brand new. We also used them in summer and fall 2023 at our new house, to build a patio, walkway, fire pit and stairs down to the lake. Every single thing is absolutely perfect. They are so organized and get everything done timely and absolutely perfectly."
"Design One did an amazing job with releveling the patio. Our patio was unbalanced in multiple places and now it feels like we have a completely new patio. The team also communicated well around the timeline of the project."
"this was a very hard week as far as weather 90 deg, high hum,and rain the team came every day and made it happen. I am very pleased with my new space"
Yes, you can build a sunroom addition to your home despite living in a cold climate. Make sure to use high-quality insulation and windows and to supplement with sufficient heating from your HVAC system. The windows in the sunroom allow enough natural light into the room to help heat it most times without having to use the furnace. Even a small electric fireplace can heat the sunroom well enough.
Even under the best of all circumstances, the maximum ROI on a pool is about 56%. There are other exterior home projects that you can do that are both less expensive to tackle and net a more significant ROI. These include:
When designing an attached greenhouse, several factors should be considered. These include the orientation and positioning of the greenhouse to maximize sunlight exposure, the structural integrity of the connection to the house, sufficient insulation to regulate temperature, proper ventilation for airflow, and adequate space for plants and pathways. If you’re restricted because of your budget, go with a simpler design to maximize the use of your money.
With proper maintenance, the average life span of a screened-in porch is six to eight years for the screens themselves, but the foundation and structure can last for 50 to 100 years. To keep your screened-in porch in good shape, clean your porch screens regularly, patch holes, re-seal the wood as needed, and address any foundational issues right away.
A Florida room doesn’t have insulation, nor is the space heated, so in most cases, the room won’t be comfortable enough to use during the winter months. A four-season room, which is like a Florida room that’s insulated, heated, and cooled, is a better option if you’re looking to enjoy your sunroom all year long.
