We had been out for the night visiting a relative and returned the next day to a broken sliding patio door. Someone had kicked/pushed the glass off its frame to enter the home. By pushing in the glass on the sliding door, it avoided tripping the alarm door sensor. Fortunately, however, the trespasser managed to trip the motion sensor forcing him/her to leave empty handed. At this point, we had two choices. One, we could place the glass back on the door frame with silicon and risk a repeat of the incident. Two, we could replace the door with a French door so that door entry sensor couldn't be easily bypassed. We chose the second option. The next day, we were in the market for a contractor to handle the work. I called about five companies and the lowest quote we received was about $1,200.00 for materials, the removal of the old door and installation of the new one. Through our business of renting homes, we heard about one of our tenant's relative, Julio Johnson, and decided to give him a call. Mr. Johnson is a licensed general contractor and has 32 years of construction experience. He arrived 15 minutes early!!! on a Sunday morning!!! to quote the installation of the new patio door. He sat us down and explained the amount of work that had to be done. Apparently, the doors that were used in 1977 (when this home was built) heights didn't match up with the heights of the new French doors available at Lowes and Home Depot. The difference was a 2" height, and he explained that he would have to adjust the door frame to allow the new sized door. I have to admit, as he was talking, it started to make sense why other companies were charging well over a thousand to do the job. Well, long story shot, he quoted us $550.00 for the supplies and installation. Mr. Johnson did an amazing job. The new door looks like it was built with the home. The finish on the wood work, paint and the overall installation make it obvious that he has a passion for this kind of work."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/tx/mcallen/south-texas-home-renovations-llc-reviews-7495716.htm"},"position":6},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Ruben Leal","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"TX","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"SANDRA B."},"reviewBody":"Due to damage caused by a hail storm we had to have work done on our roof. The hail broke and chipped the facia boards, and had to be replaced. The contractor we employed to replace the facia boards did not do caulking or painting, so we were tasked with finding a painter. Mr. Leal had left a business card with us a week prior, so we decided to check his work. He had painted several houses in our neighbor and we were amazed and how good his work was. We contacted Mr. Leal and asked him for an estimate. We called 2 other painters for estimates and based on the quality of work we had seen Mr. Leal do, and his bid we decided to hire him. Mr. Leal and his crew arrived promptly at 8:30 am as agreed by both parties. He stayed in contact with us keeping us informed of their progress. The crew prepped the areas of our house for painting by power washing. They caulked and applied primer to new wood and applied 2 coats of top quality paint. Mr. Leal and his crew were puntual, efficient, professional and friendly. They took extra measures to insure that if paint spilled it would not damage the concrete or walkway to our front door and patio. These gentlemen did this job in 100+ degree temperatures and still, they did an outstanding job. I would recommend Mr. Leal with no reservations."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/tx/mission/ruben-leal-reviews-7405759.htm"},"position":7}]}
Sunroom And Patio Service reviews from real Angi homeowners in Rio Hondo, TX
The crew did a great job stripping a vaulted popcorn ceiling, installing wood tile, painting and replacing trim in our living room. They were punctual, clean and quick, but thorough. The attention to detail was impressive. We brought them back for exterior work, replacing rotten wood all over...

"Uriel and his crew are a dream come through. I have been burned my many contactors in the past but Uriel is absolutely the best I have ever dealt with. He communicated daily, started work and finished quicker than I could have imagined. He texted me every morning when the crew was showing up. Sent me pictures on the progress and was quick to point items out during the process. They did an outstanding job and cleaned up everything when they completed. I bought a mid century home and we have a laundry list of future work. I will keep Uriel on speed dial. He is simply amazing. Thank you Uriel!!"

Sunrooms and Patios questions, answered by experts
Yes, porches require foundations. The type of foundation required, however, is determined by the type and use of the porch. For example, a screened-in porch won’t require a new cement foundation. However, if you turn your porch into a sunroom or plan on making it a living space, then chances are you need a foundation that’s more permanent than piers and posts.
A lanai is a covered patio with open walls, while a Florida room has sides made of mesh screens or windows, with or without partial low walls. In addition, lanais often use concrete or other patio flooring, while Florida rooms may have more indoor-style flooring like tile or wood. Both allow you to enjoy the outdoors without being in the direct sun, but a lanai doesn’t offer any barrier against insects or debris.
Your maintenance needs revolve around the type of foundation you choose, as well as how you furnish or decorate it. Patios require little else other than the occasional hose-down, but decks and other wooden structures will require annual power washing and sealing. You may also need to restain the wood every two to three years.
Adding a solid roof rather than building a pergola or leaving the space open will make maintenance much easier. Without a roof, you will need to spend more time sweeping, washing, and covering your furniture to protect it from UV bleaching.
A Florida room is a home addition that has finished walls with windows lining the perimeter, while a screened-in porch, also known as an Arizona room, lacks windows and instead has screens to maintain constant ventilation. Florida rooms provide longer enjoyment throughout the year because they’re closed off and will naturally get heated from the sun, while a screened-in porch will just be the same temperature as the ambient air.
Whether it's better to add a sunroom or a regular room to your home depends on your goals. If you need extra bedrooms, building rooms with four standard walls makes more sense than adding a sunroom. If you don't need extra sleeping areas but would like to expand the living space of your home, a sunroom makes sense.
