"Remarkable the best landscape experience in years. Six acres of leaves when they arrived at 8am and a beautiful totally manicured look at 6pm. We have a large property for 25 years and this is the best clean up ever. Russ is.professional thorough curtious and pleasant. Iwould recomend him to anyone. AAA experience."
"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!"
"I was more than satisfied with the work they did. 4 boxwood bushes removed, a tall tree trimmed and more. I would recommend them for any outdoor work."
"Well it has been many years since we hired a professional such as Romeo. Honest, efficient with strong work ethics. Great respect to our property and our neighbors. An absolute pleasure. Made our dreams of a sound patio a reality. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Alma & Laura"
"We just had Scarpone and Sons replace our roof in the middle of winter!! They chose the perfect day to rip off the existing roof and replace it in a little over a day. Lucky for us it stopped snowing just long enough for them to do what they do. They were efficient, fast, and did an excellent job. The roof no longer leaks and we are so happy! I highly recommend them to do YOUR roof. In fact we recommended them to a couple that were thinking of replacing their roof."
"We had a FANTASTIC experience working with Mario and his team creating a bathroom (from scratch!) in our upstairs bedroom. Mario is ALWAYS on time, responsive to questions, and incredibly kind. His work is impeccable, and his attention to detail incomparable .Our bathroom looks like an upscale spa. We have since called him for other projects around our house because we know how wonderful, smart, and trustworthy he and his team are! We HIGHLY recommend him!"
"I needed help with a roof/gutter ice jam and Buffalo's Best Roofing was outstanding in helping in my situation. Arianna & Austin wanted to help me and they did!!!. Shane & Frank that were here to help me did a great job to help me and cared about my well being. Would use this company again in the future.
Thanks Hazel"
"I love the fact of owners we on site and actually doing the work. They are very professional and get the job done in a very timely manner. I purchased a stamped patio 2 levels, added a fire pit along with an edge for planting flowers. It couldn't have turned out any more perfect than it did. I love It!!"
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.
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.
The average cost to enclose a patio to create a sunroom is around $5,000, and prices generally range from $3,000 up to $10,000. The price you pay will depend on the state of your patio and whether it needs repairs or additional structural support, the quality of the materials you choose, the size of your patio, and whether you plan to run utilities into and finish the sunroom. The price for a fully finished patio enclosure could run up to around $20,000, while you might pay just $2,500 for a screened-in porch.
A screened-in porch requires maintenance to keep the screens clean and in good shape, and you may have to do some screen repair or replacement from time to time. A screen porch isn’t an all-season porch, so the weather can get in, including wind and rain.
The average cost to screen-in your patio ranges from $2,000 to $4,000. How much you spend depends on the size of your patio, the materials used, and construction complexity. Some patio screen room kits are easy to DIY, but you may need to hire a local screened-in porch builder and obtain permits for more complex designs.
