Talk to the People Who Will Enclose Your Patio

Enclosing is the cheapest way to gain a room, because the slab and often the roof already exist. The catch is that a patio slab was not poured to carry walls, and that has to be checked rather than assumed.

We look at the slab, the existing roof and the wall connection, then price the enclosure that suits how you want to use it.

    Patio Enclosure Questions Homeowners Ask

    Before You Call Anyone, Read This

    Sometimes, and sometimes not. A slab poured as a patio is not always adequate as the floor of a room, and its edges may lack the footing depth an enclosure needs. We check before quoting rather than after.

    The same honest question we ask about sunrooms. Conditioned means a room you use year round at a higher cost. Unconditioned means a comfortable three season space. Deciding this first stops you paying for one and expecting the other.

    Often it needs levelling, and it needs checking for moisture, since a slab poured as an exterior patio may have no vapour barrier under it. Flooring laid over an untreated slab will tell you about it later.

    Mostly the starting point. A patio enclosure works with an existing patio or open porch footprint. A sunroom is more often built new from footings. The finished result can be similar.

    Enough to feel open, with glazing chosen for solar heat gain rather than for the picture in the brochure. An enclosure that is unbearable from June to September is not usable space.

    It gets assessed, and often insulated or rebuilt. An uninsulated patio roof over a conditioned room is a hole in the envelope.

    Yes, and we check setbacks and any exterior approval requirement first.

    It depends on the slab, the conditioning decision and the glazing. One fixed written number after the site visit, free of charge.

    What a Patio Enclosure Covers

    These are the pieces we price. You decide how far to take it.

    Slab and Roof Check

    Slab and Roof Check

    Confirming the existing slab and roof can take walls and glazing before anything is designed.
    Glazing and Walls

    Glazing and Walls

    Glass, screen or a mix, with coated glazing so the room is not unusable in an Alabama summer.
    Insulation

    Insulation

    Roof and wall insulation where you want it usable in winter as well as in the shoulder seasons.
    Conditioned or Not

    Conditioned or Not

    A mini split if it is to be a real room, or fans and ventilation if three seasons is enough.
    Floor Finish

    Floor Finish

    Tile or plank over the slab, with a moisture check first since a patio slab rarely has a vapour barrier.
    Permits

    Permits

    Enclosing changes the structure, so it is permitted work and we handle it.

    Cheapest Room

    You Already Own the Floor and the Roof

    Because the slab and often the cover are already there, enclosing gains a room for less than building one from the ground up. It is the best value square footage on most houses after the basement.

    What it costs depends almost entirely on how far you take the specification.

    Three Seasons or Four

    Decide This Before Anything Else

    A screened enclosure and a conditioned room are different projects wearing the same name. The first is far cheaper and unusable on the hottest and coldest weeks. The second costs more and gets used every day.

    We price both so you are choosing rather than guessing.

    The Slab

    A Patio Slab Is Not a Floor Slab

    Patio slabs are usually thinner, often unreinforced, and rarely have a vapour barrier under them. Any of those changes what you can put on top, and moisture coming up through it will ruin a finished floor.

    We test before specifying a floor, rather than after you have paid for one.

    Home Value

    Whether It Counts as Footage

    Permitted and conditioned, an enclosure can count toward the finished area of the house. Unpermitted, it is space a buyer enjoys but an appraiser will not credit.

    We will tell you plainly which side of that line your plan falls on before you commit.
