"Francisco, et al did a great job managing and installing a patio expansion (pavers) including a rework of adjacent planted areas and new sod. Very professional in all planning aspects with quality work on all elements. Very accommodating throughout the project. Could not be happier with the result."
"I highly recommend GI Landscape. The owner, Israel is fantastic to work with and his crew are efficient and do excellent work. We have used this company to build a paver patio, fire pit with pavers, fencing and to plant a row of trees and numerous landscape plants. They provided excellent landscape ideas, offered fair pricing, arrived on time and left the area clean. We are so pleased with the results and have no hesitation in recommending this company."
"We hired System Pavers to install a new outdoor patio in our backyard. Austin was amazing! He was very attentive to what we wanted and worked with us to project end and made sure we got exactly what we wanted. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a new outdoor patio."
"In our experience Jorge was very willing to work with us to refine the design of our walkway and patio project. When he came to our house to make measurements for a quote he sat down with a notebook and sketched out how they could look."
"We had an excellent experience with Miguel and his team at Sherpa! From the design and estimate process to the project work and the final product, we were beyond pleased. It is an amazing transformation of our space, and we would happily recommend Miguel and Sherpa Landscape Construction. The attention to detail and finished product is stunning! They maintained a clean jobsite and left our property spotless after their work was complete. If I could give 6 stars I would!"
"Had a retaining wall done? Eric was great in keeping me informed of all steps up to the very end and was easy to work with. His team did an outstanding job and the wall looks great. It is nice to have a company that shows pride in its work and cares about the customer. I highly recommend them."
"They were able to come the next day, helped move a few minor things and cleared area, added gravel and cemented the area. I had to add a 3.5 by 9 ft area to side of patio. They did a great job and were very clean, and finished the surface like I need it."
"My mom is over the moon with her new little paver patio.
Jose and his team are amazing. They were nice, professional, and most of all, honest. I got exactly what I wanted.
I would definitely hire them again and would recommend them highly."
"Omar and his crew were great small patio with stone and fake turf and stone. Love the job they did his crew cleaned up every afternoon. Would hire him again."
A sunroom offers an additional indoor space to rest, dine, or host guests, all while inviting in as much sun as possible. Either built like an enclosed porch or a fully insulated home extension, a sunroom features floor-to-ceiling windows or screens that create an open, bright design while still remaining protected from the elements and bugs.
If you have multiple rooms that could use some organization, home storage solutions like cubbies in your mudroom or built-in shelving can help you move clutter off the floor. Take it one step further by pairing shelves and cabinets with personalized aesthetic touches like woven or canvas lined metal baskets to add another organizational element.
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.
A well-constructed and well-maintained sunroom can last as long as the rest of your house. If you build the sunroom to the same standards using the same quality materials as the house and perform regular maintenance to ensure the room stays in top condition, it can bring you decades of enjoyment.
The cost of winterizing a screened porch can vary depending on the chosen method and the extent of the modifications required. Simple options like installing vinyl panels or using vinyl sheeting tend to be more affordable, while creating a four season room can involve higher costs due to renovation expenses. It's best to consult with professionals or obtain multiple quotes to get an accurate estimate for your specific project.
