A covered patio is nice, but a sunroom gives you a bright, finished room you can use in the worst of a Houston summer and the odd cold snap alike. Glass walls, an insulated roof, and real heating and cooling turn it into everyday living space, not a seasonal porch. We design each sunroom around the sun exposure of your yard and how you want to use the room, whether that is a plant room, a den, or a quiet spot to read.

How We Build a Sunroom Addition in Houston
01 Consultation & Site Evaluation
We start on your property with a free consultation. We talk through how you want to use the room, then check the wall you will tie into, the sun exposure, drainage, and where power and HVAC can reach, since those conditions shape the whole build in Houston.
02 Custom Design & Glass Plan
We draw the sunroom in-house: the footprint, roof line, glass layout, and where doors and HVAC vents go. We plan low-E glass placement around your sun exposure so the room stays bright without baking, and you see the full layout before we build.
03 Materials, Glass & Proposal
We select low-E insulated glass, roof and wall systems, flooring, and finishes together, then present a clear, itemized proposal. You know whether you are getting a three-season room or a full four-season room, and exactly what it costs, before anyone breaks ground.
04 Permitted Build & Trades
We pull the City of Houston building, electrical, and mechanical permits, set an engineered foundation for our clay soil, and frame, glaze, and finish the room with licensed trades. A dedicated site lead oversees every detail, from the slab to the last HVAC connection.
05 Final Walkthrough & Care
We test the HVAC, lighting, doors, and glass seals with you, and walk the finished room together. Then we show you how to keep the glass and finishes looking right through Houston summers, so it stays a room you use every month of the year.

What Sets Our Sunroom Additions Apart
Some crews slap glass on a slab and call it a sunroom. We build a sunroom like the rest of the home: an engineered foundation, low-E insulated glass, and real HVAC so the room works in July and January. With 20+ years in Houston and 500+ projects done, we plan around heat, humidity, and how you want to live in the space.
Houston Outdoor Living
Low-E Glass Built for Houston Sun
We use low-E, insulated glass that blocks heat and UV, so the room stays bright without turning into a greenhouse, even during a Gulf Coast summer.
Climate Control for Year-Round Use
We size and tie in HVAC so your sunroom is heated and cooled like the rest of the house, which makes it real, usable square footage every month, not a seasonal porch.
Engineered Foundation on Clay Soil
We set a properly engineered foundation for Houston's expansive clay, so the addition does not settle or crack, and we build to code with the right permits.
Sunrooms Built for How Houston Lives Outside
A sunroom has to handle more than a mild afternoon. In Houston that means long, humid summers, strong UV, sudden Gulf downpours, and the occasional hard freeze like February 2021. We set an engineered foundation so the clay soil under your yard cannot settle or crack the addition, and we tie the room into your home so it feels like part of the house, not a bolt-on.
Glass and comfort matter just as much. We install low-E, insulated glass and an insulated roof that keep heat and UV out, then size HVAC so the room stays comfortable through July. That is the difference between a true four-season room and a glass box that bakes. Where your neighborhood has an HOA or deed restrictions, we help you get the plans approved before we build, and we build to hurricane-area code so the glazing holds up.
Because Houston has no zoning but does require permits, we pull the City of Houston building, electrical, and mechanical permits and use licensed trades for that work. That keeps your addition safe, insurable, and ready to pass inspection. If you want the open-air, lower-cost option instead, a screened patio keeps the bugs out while staying open to the breeze. Either way, you get a space built for how Houston really lives outdoors.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a sunroom cost in Houston?
Sunroom cost depends on the size, the glass you choose, the foundation, and whether it is a three-season room or a full four-season room with heating and cooling. A glass-enclosed, climate-controlled addition costs more than a simple three-season room because it needs an insulated foundation, low-E glass, and HVAC. That is why we start with a free on-site consultation and give you an itemized quote before any work begins, so the price fits your plan. After 20+ years and 500+ projects in Houston, we can walk your space and give you an honest range.
What is the difference between a sunroom and a screened patio?
A sunroom has glass walls, a solid insulated roof, and can be heated and cooled, so it works as a real room all year. A screened patio uses screen mesh instead of glass, so it stays open to the breeze and keeps bugs out but is not climate-controlled. A sunroom costs more but adds finished, conditioned square footage. If you want the lower-cost, open-air option, see our screened patios page. Many Houston homeowners choose a sunroom for year-round comfort in our heat and humidity.
Do you need a permit for a sunroom in Houston?
In most cases, yes. A sunroom is a home addition, so the City of Houston typically requires a building permit, plus electrical and often mechanical permits when you add HVAC. Houston has no zoning, but permits and licensed trades are still required for this work. If you are in a master-planned community, your HOA or deed restrictions may also need to approve the plans. We handle the permits and the trade work for you, so your sunroom is safe, insurable, and ready to pass inspection.
Will a sunroom get too hot in Houston summers?
It will not if it is built right for our climate. We use low-E, insulated glass that blocks heat and UV, an insulated roof, and HVAC sized for the space, so the room stays comfortable in July, not like a greenhouse. A poorly built sunroom with plain single-pane glass and no cooling can bake in Houston heat. We plan the glass, insulation, and airflow around the sun exposure of your yard so the room is usable every month of the year.
Does a sunroom add value to my home?
A climate-controlled sunroom adds finished, conditioned square footage, which can add value and appeal when you sell, especially compared to a simple porch. Because it is heated and cooled year-round, buyers often see it as real living space, not just seasonal. Keep in mind that added conditioned square footage can affect your property appraisal and taxes, so it is worth checking with your county. We build to code with permits so the addition is documented and insurable.
How long does it take to build a sunroom?
Most sunrooms take a few weeks from the first dig to the final walkthrough, depending on the size, the foundation, permits, and whether we are tying in HVAC and electrical. We give you a clear schedule in the proposal and keep the same crew on your project start to finish. Because we draw the full design in-house and line up the foundation, glazing, and mechanical trades early, the build moves without the guesswork that stretches other additions out.
