We couldn't be happier with our new 4-season sunroom, and we can't say enough about the people at Better Living Patio Rooms! We've had a lot of work done at our house over the years, but the crew from Better Living stands above the rest. Once the project began, work continued - without pause - until it was completed. From Anthony in sales, Mike in project management, Michelle and Jenn in the office, and Frank and Justin (who did the work), they were professional, detail-oriented, and friendly. I highly recommend Better Living. Brian in McCandless.

Ray and the entire team were excellent! I had previously received an estimate from another company, but they used subcontractors for the actual work and this concerned me. Another company came out and took measurements, but never gave me an estimate. I got the feeling the job was too big for them. I was now really hesitant to trust anyone to do the work and wanted to make sure they were going to do it right. I went to the BBB and found Betterliving with an A+ rating. From the beginning, I felt comfortable. They explained everything, were more than open to additional phone calls to clarify any questions I had and gave me an estimate very quickly. While I knew the work would not be started for several months, I received weekly phone calls from Michele, so I felt informed the whole time. They even took care of the permit that was required, so I didn't have to do any paperwork, handle the fee or answer questions. Mike was great about getting the measurements and he let me know the work would not start until he made sure all of the pieces were available. Frank was super with the installation. He treated the entire project as if he were working on his own home. The payments were done over the duration of the project, so I didn't feel like I was handing over my money without anything in return. And the final payment was not due until I was satisfied with the work completed. The warranty provided on the materials was excellent. I'm happy I decided on Betterliving and have been enjoying my patio cover every chance I get! A long time dream is finally a reality.

Wonderfully I am isolated due to chemo and COVID. We decided to convert our screened in porch to a four season room, so our three adult children, their spouses and our grandchildren could visit us through the glass window. We engaged Better Living Sunrooms and asked if we could have the room available by Thanksgiving, since we would not be able to see our family otherwise.. Ray Hemp was amazing when delays occurred due to COVID, He is an outstanding person of integrity who keeps his promises. He made it happen! We had lovely visits with our family, which I will never forget. Today, some items needed completed to finish the room. Ray and Anthony Mazzant (another outstanding person) spent several hours with us and finished the room. It is wonderful! Last week, when it snowed, we sat in the new room and watched the flakes fall, safe and warm. The room is all we were promised - it is beautiful! Thank you so much to Ray for making my holiday dreams come true.

Approximately two years ago we added a Sunroom and deck on the back of our house. We chose BetterLiving Patio Rooms to do the job, and we were very pleased with the outcome and highly recommend them! We use the room all year as we added heat and air conditioning, and it has become our favorite room! The owner Ray was the individual we personally worked with. Ray and everyone on his staff were very professional and outstanding to work with. Many of our neighbors have complimented the work and have asked us who the contractor was. Every time we have friends or family over who are seeing the room for the first time, we continue to get the same response "WOW this room is beautiful, and look what it has done to the value of your home". We have made many improvements to our home over the years, but this by far was the best decision we made. It has not only become our favorite room, but our favorite retirement spot. It provides the beauty of our back yard all year long, its a fabulous room for reading, and anyone who is an artist or needs alot of light for projects, etc, it does the job perfectly! Our dog loves it as well as it gives her more visibility to bark at all of the animals in our yard. We also highly recommend the remote blinds for some privacy and blocking out the sun!

BetterLiving is a company that operates with honesty and integrity. We just wrapped up a complete demolition and new build of our large front porch all done by the courteous, knowledgeable BetterLiving crew. It was really a great experience from the carpenter who first came out Anthony and also Hogan who kept us informed on time tables and what to expect next. The young men who did this fabulous job were Darion and Josh phenomenal and professional at all times. Super hard working and considerate. The owner himself, Ray came out as our property was challenging but he insured everything was safe and well thought out. My husband and I can not say enough about this group of honest hardworking contractors who gave us gold standard customer service from the top down! Thank you Betterliving for our new beautiful front porch! You guys really put a smile on this Nurses’ face. You simply can not go wrong with this company. Angela S.

Serious work was required, they were not willing to do the job.
Response from Betterliving Patio Rooms of Pittsburgh

"Hi [Member Name Removed]- I wanted to reach out to you about the review you had left on Angie's List. Unfortunately our company doesn't do deck repairs. I understand in Angie's List our name shows up and I had spoken with Angie's List about this issue. They said because we build new decks we also show up under repairs. They also advised we try reaching out to you to remove the review because these are services we don't perform. I appreciate your consideration in this matter, as we are a small business and pride ourselves on our reviews, and it is harmful that we are reviewed for work we cannot perform. If we can help you in locating another business that may perform services you are in need of please let us know."

Very disappointed. Had a scheduled appointment for a week on a home we were purchasing. The homeowner graciously opened the home so I could do this. Showed up over an hour late, with no phone call. Was very apologetic and very nice. Ray had a nice personality. Took measurements and was told I’d get an estimate that evening. When they called that evening I was told he had to go back to the house to talk about the estimate. I just needed a ball park figure to get an idea. I was told he’d call back. Since that time, we now own the home and called back at least 6 times to get an estimate. Was told he will call me back and he’s being pulled in all directions. I’m disappointed because we were going to go with him, but if he can’t even give me five minutes to call back, how well is he going to be to respond to the sunporch we needed added on?

Better living was extremely responsive and helpful even though my project was fairly small. I had a very hard time getting other contractors to come out for a small project. They worked through all the city permit issues, then came out and demolished my old deck and build a beautiful new one in about a week. Everyone I spoke to throughout the process was very helpful. Highly recommended!

Anthony was very professional and knowledgeable. He was very interested in making sure I got what would make me happy. I enjoyed talking with him but, the estimate was much more than I wanted to pay. I felt the roof was more like a carport and the cost was extreme.

I am beyond thrilled with my new front porch. I am a very particular person and the entire crew kept me involved in the building process each step of the way. I was able to determine exactly how I wanted the porch to look down to the inch. No one made me feel as if I was difficult or hard to please. Instead, they confirmed to me over and over that their job was to make me happy.

It looks FANTASTIC! We encountered some unexpected bumps in the road as always happens with construction on an old home and they were fantastic in working with me and coming up with creative solutions to the issues. The end result is even better than I had imagined. The sales rep Ray was honest, comprehensive and even came out at the end of the project to make sure that he approved, was happy with it and he did a few finishing touches to make it look even better. Well worth the money. This type of project is expensive but they are totally in line and even more reasonable than other estimates I had plus they did much more than the comparable estimates at other companies included. The only reason that I gave a B for punctuality is that there were several delays in getting the last minor finishing touches done, but absolutely nothing that would prevent me from hiring them again or recommending them to anyone and everyone. Use this company, you won't be disappointed!

Ray was fantastic working with us. He kept his promise throughout the whole job. Mark P. and Greg were outstanding, always keeping us involved in the project. Jim did a great job on the interior French Door and window pass through. Our Sunroom is beautiful and our outdoor living space is incredible as well. We love it! Thanks Ray, Mark, Greg, Jim, Patty and Better Living Patio Pittsburgh.

What a company!!! What a great team consisting of Josh, Hogan, Jim, and the owner Ray. They all worked very professionally in the teardown of our old deck and the design and construction of our new 3 Season Room. We couldn’t be happier with our new addition.

Went well - they had issues with our township approving things and demanding unreasonable requirements which added to the installation time but we were always informed - we always knew what was going on and we are exceptionally pleased with the results and are enjoying our sunroom everyday.

We felt like we were dealing with family -

You can't go wrong with this company -

The project went smoothly and didn't take long to finish. We had a sunroom previously but it did not have a heating or cooling system on it.  We use this room more than other rooms in our house.  We are very satisfied and happy! I would recommend them to anyone!
