Build sunroom on patio.

You expect a sunroom to be sunny but too much sunlight can be uncomfortable especially in summer. In addition those pesky mosquitoes black flies wasps and other flying nuisances are kept at bay. Cut a 2 x 6 to length for each opening and nail it in place. You want to build in a little shade and the best way to do it depends on the orientation of the patio.

You will also need to make sure you have the proper materials to begin constructing your sunroom. Cut a 2 x 6 to length and lag bolt it to the siding alongside the plumb line. This is not unlike building a sunroom on your existing deck except your foundation will be different. Again if you have to construct a roof we recommend you consult with a reputable contractor.

Building a sunroom floor be sure your floor will last. Once that is satisfactory sunroom construction is basically framing and installing windows and doors. This gets the concrete below frost level and keeps your 6 inch x 6 inch posts from touching the ground to avoid rotting. Next build a false post on both ends of the porch next to the house.

Other benefits include patio furniture that s always dry and a secure lockable space for a lot of the stuff that normally stays outside. To do this just mark a plumb line on the siding from the soleplate to the porch headers. Our customers tell us all the time that their sunroom becomes one of the most used and favorite spaces in their home. Depending on the type of patio you have additional foundation materials may need to be added.
