Sunrooms

Sunroom additions invite the beauty of the landscape surrounding your home indoors, letting the scenery act as the backdrop for this room that can serve almost any purpose. Add a sunroom in order to enlarge a kitchen, adding both space and sunlight; or create a spa-like retreat by adding a sunroom to enclose the area around your pool.

Why Add a Sunroom?

A sunroom offers a unique opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors year-round without dealing with pests, humidity, or inclement weather. It brings in natural light, connects you to your surroundings, and serves as a flexible living space that adapts to your needs.

Some common uses for a sunroom include:

  • A casual breakfast nook or coffee corner

  • A reading or meditation retreat

  • A space for indoor plants or gardening

  • An entertainment area for guests

  • A peaceful home office bathed in natural light

Unlike traditional room additions, sunrooms are designed to be visually lighter and more open, often featuring large windows, skylights, glass walls, or even retractable screens. These elements not only enhance your connection to nature but also help reduce your reliance on artificial lighting during the day—making sunrooms an energy-efficient choice.

Custom Sunroom Design Tailored to You

At Berriz Design Build, we understand that no two homeowners are alike—and neither are their homes. That’s why we take a fully customized approach to every sunroom project. From the first design consultation to the final walkthrough, our experienced designers and builders collaborate closely with you to ensure your new space reflects your vision, needs, and aesthetic preferences.

We consider factors like:

  • Your home’s existing style and layout

  • The best orientation for sunlight and views

  • Seasonal usage and insulation needs

  • Ventilation and airflow

  • Flooring, lighting, and ceiling materials

  • Energy-efficient glass and framing systems

Whether you want a three-season room that opens onto your deck or a fully insulated four-season sunroom with heating and cooling, we ensure every detail is thoughtfully planned and expertly executed.

Three-Season vs. Four-Season Sunroom

One of the first decisions you’ll make when planning a sunroom is whether to build a three-season or four-season room.

Three-Season Sunrooms

These are typically used during spring, summer, and fall. They’re not fully insulated or climate-controlled but still provide a bright, sheltered area for relaxing. They’re often more affordable to build and can include ceiling fans, screens, or portable heaters to extend usability.

Four-Season Sunrooms

Designed for year-round use, these rooms are fully insulated and include HVAC integration or independent heating/cooling systems. With high-performance glass and framing materials, they offer comfort and energy efficiency no matter the weather. These rooms are ideal for homeowners who want to maximize functionality and truly make their sunroom part of their everyday living space.

At Berriz Design Build, we’ll help you weigh the pros and cons of each option based on your budget, how you plan to use the space, and your long-term goals.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the difference between a three-season and a four-season sunroom?

A three-season sunroom is designed for use in spring, summer, and fall. It is not fully insulated or climate-controlled, so it may not be comfortable during winter months. These sunrooms are often less expensive to build and may include features like ceiling fans and screens.
A four-season sunroom, on the other hand, is designed for year-round use and is fully insulated and climate-controlled. It includes heating and cooling systems or integrates with your home’s HVAC, making it comfortable and functional regardless of the season.

How do I decide if a sunroom is right for my home?

A sunroom can be a great addition if you want to bring natural light into your home, expand your living space, and connect with the outdoors. Consider your lifestyle and how you plan to use the space—whether it’s for entertaining, gardening, relaxing, or working. A consultation with a designer from Berriz Design Build can help you evaluate your home’s layout and the best options for adding a sunroom that fits your needs.

What are the benefits of adding a sunroom to my home?

Adding a sunroom offers many benefits, including:

  • Increased natural light, which can improve your mood and energy efficiency

  • A seamless connection to the outdoors, allowing you to enjoy your garden or yard from inside

  • Enhanced home value, as sunrooms are attractive, functional spaces

  • Flexibility in how the space is used—whether for a home office, dining area, reading nook, or entertainment space

  • Energy savings through high-performance glass that helps maintain temperature regulation

How long does it take to build a sunroom?

The timeline for building a sunroom depends on several factors, including the design complexity, size of the room, and whether it’s a three-season or four-season room. On average, a sunroom can take anywhere from 6 to 12 weeks to complete. Berriz Design Build will provide a detailed timeline and keep you informed throughout the process, ensuring the project stays on schedule.

A Berriz Design Build consultation will help you understand your budget options and provide an estimate tailored to your specific design and functional preferences.
