"I told Ariel at our first meeting " If I am spending money like this I expect perfection". Ariel and his staff did just that and more. Always returned my phone calls, he kept me informed and up to date on the materials. We had some weather issues this year but that only delayed a few days. Once the weather cooperated , the guys were on it and had it all said and done in less than a week. We had our roof replaced and installed solar powered roof vents , new gutters and downspouts. We also needed a new patio door. Our house has a east(front) and west(back) setting and the kitchen is in the back so you can imagine try to keep the kitchen comfortable to cook in the warmer months and warm in the cooler months with the wicked northwest winds. We chose a sliding triple pane door. Ariel suggested we tint it to cut back on the sun rays. You can't even tell there is a tint until you open the door. If a door could be pretty, this works for us. This is no door you go buy all put together and pop in, Ariel had to assemble then install it. The door in completely trimmed and sealed to which we will probably never have to replace. Our intent when we started this project was to do the better job with everything and Ariel understood that. We are so pleased with the work he has done , he will be the first one we call for the next project. "

"Nick and his partner were absolutely incredible to work with. He cleaned and washed our home, patio, and deck. Everything is so nice and clean and we couldn’t be happier. He was super responsive and has even offered to help with some other jobs around our house. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely have him back out when we need."
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.
If you’re trying to decide between a sunroom and a screened-in porch, the right choice will depend on your priorities. A screened-in porch costs only a fraction of the price of a sunroom, but in exchange, it has much more limited use. A sunroom will add more value to your home, but at a much higher up-front cost and longer construction timeline.
A screened-in porch can add value to your home, with a potential return on investment (ROI) of 70% to 84%. The actual value added depends heavily on several factors. Climate is a major consideration; homes in warm, humid, or buggy areas (like the Southern regions) see the highest ROI. In colder climates, the value is diminished as the unconditioned space is unusable for much of the year. Other factors that influence the return include the quality of materials and construction, the size of the porch, and the local real estate market. While a screened-in porch can enhance curb appeal and attract potential buyers, it is not included in the home's total square footage for appraisal purposes.
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.
There are many materials to choose from, including picket fencing, wood slats, galvanized metal skirting, dog-ear fence panels, scallop wood fence panels, bamboo screens, and other decorative screens. You can search for materials at local big box stores like Home Depot or scour online home improvement sites. Good search terms to use are fencing, skirting, and privacy panels.
