Closing in an unused patio
Most of our calls start with a slab out back that collects furniture and little else. Walls, glass and a roof turn it into a room you'll actually walk into.

What goes into building a sunroom
Sunroom construction in Mission Viejo means building a closed-in room onto your house with walls that are mostly glass or clear plastic, so a patio or deck you hardly use becomes a room you'll actually sit in.
We've been in business since 2013, and we're based in Mission Viejo and work across the Orange County cities around it. The room type moves the price most, four-season or three-season. After that come the size, the glass and whether the slab or deck needs work first.
The schedule turns on that same base question, plus the city's permit and the inspections between stages. Your written estimate gives you the figure for your own room, so you're not guessing from a website.
The right room on the first visit
We're best known for walking a yard and telling you on the first visit what kind of room makes sense there, so you don't pay for a design that fights your lot.
Sized for how you'll use it
I'd rather build the room you'll sit in every week than the biggest one we could sell you, and a smaller room usually costs less to build, heat and cool.
I come out, our crew builds
I come out to look at every job myself, and our own crew does the build, so what we talked about in your yard is what goes up.
How we plan and build your sunroom
If glare or heat worries you, we walk you through a clear solar coating against tinted glass before anything gets ordered. Tint cuts more of the sun but changes the light in the room. A coating keeps the view looking natural, and on a room that catches the afternoon sun, that's the one I'd pick.
We start under the room, because a sunroom is only as good as the slab or deck it sits on, and if the base needs work I'll tell you before the walls go up. If you're going four-season, we plan the insulated windows and the insulation in the walls, floor and roof into the first design, since they go in much easier during the build and adding them later often costs more. From there our crew frames the walls, sets the roof and glass, finishes the inside and cleans up.
Not every yard needs a new room. If you already have one that runs hot or leaks, sunroom remodeling may get you there for less. If you mostly want shade and fresh air without bugs, screen room installation is the simpler choice.
What homeowners use a new sunroom for
Building over an existing deck
A deck has to carry walls and a roof, not just chairs and a grill, so we check how it's framed and supported before we plan a room on it.
A brighter spot for the table
Plenty of homeowners want a breakfast room or a dining spot full of morning light. We plan the doorway from the house and the layout so it feels like part of the kitchen.
A room for plants or hobbies
Glass on most sides makes a good place for plants, a reading chair or a workbench. If you'll use it in summer heat, the glass and roof choices matter as much as the size.
Get a written estimate for your sunroom
Send the form and we'll reply within one business day. I'll come out, measure, look over your slab or deck and talk through room types, then we send a written estimate, free and with no obligation.
Your room's rough size
A rough width and depth, even paced off on the patio, gives me a sense of the room before I arrive and makes the first visit more useful.
The room type you lean toward
Tell us if you're thinking four-season or three-season, or if you're not sure yet. Either way, we'll talk it through on site before anything gets written up.
Your home address
We need it to book the visit, and it lets us look up what the city will want for your lot before I come out to measure.

Questions about building a sunroom here
Straight answers on cost, room types, permits and who can build your room, the things most people ask before they call.
How much does a sunroom cost in Mission Viejo?
Building a sunroom in Orange County usually costs about $120 to $200 per square foot. Larger rooms that need a foundation and get heating and air conditioning land near the top of that range, and a simpler room on a sound slab sits lower. Your written estimate gives you the figure for your own room.
What is the difference between a three-season and a four-season sunroom?
A four-season room is heated and cooled and has all-weather windows, while a three-season room isn't heated or cooled and uses uninsulated windows or screens. If you want to sit out there on August afternoons and cool winter evenings, I'd build four-season. If it's mostly a spring and fall room, three-season costs less and does the job.
How do permits and inspections work for a sunroom in Mission Viejo?
The City of Mission Viejo takes all permits and inspections online, and we file the permit and book each inspection. The city inspects the next business day when it's requested the day before, so we schedule each stage ahead. We also check your house against its updated fire hazard zone maps and tell you early if the city needs anything from you.
Who can build my sunroom in California, and how much can they ask up front?
Anyone who builds or offers to build it in California needs a contractor's license from the state licensing board, and we're licensed and insured. The board also caps the down payment on home improvement work at $1,000, or less on a smaller contract, and later payments have to be listed in the contract and tied to work done or materials delivered.
How do I take care of a sunroom after it's built?
Look over the roof and gutters once a year and stay off the roof unless you need to be up there, which is what one sunroom maker's guide suggests. Keeping the gutters clear lets rain run off the roof instead of sitting against the walls. If something looks off, give us a call.
