Do you want to enclose your open patio under an existing roof? Do you want to have maximum amount of glass? Consider to do it with sliding glass doors. In some cases we use standard, “of the shelf” doors. However, for best result we recommend to use custom doors and custom windows. Just remember that all open patios have a sloped concrete floor at a ground level. It is important to have a level concrete floor and at list 3’ to 4’ above the ground level for any patio enclosure or sunroom. To achieve a level floor at the proper height we pour new concrete over the existing concrete floor. This type of design and construction can be used for room additions, patio enclosures and sunrooms. Each type can be cooled or heated efficiently as long as we use high quality of insulated glass and size up the air conditioning and heating unit properly.

Patio enclosure in Peoria Arizona

 Any screen room can be converted to a patio enclosure. If design and built properly the enclosure will classified as a "living space" which will add to the value of the house. All HOA (home owner's association) approve of our design and construction because the exterior finishing of the enclosure is identical to the exterior finishing of the house. Click on the following links and see pictures of patio enclosures, sunrooms, room additions, patio roofs and much more.

Sunroom in Chandler Arizona

We converted an existing covered patio into a larger livable sunroom enclosure. The HOA requested that the addition will have the same style and colors as of the existing house. Also, they requested that the new addition roof will have the same roof tiles as of the house roof. We also tried to build this addition with as many “green” construction features within the HOA limitation. The “Green” features in this addition are:

We used light gauge steel and DenseGlass exterior sheathings

Door and windows are insulated with low “E” coating and argon gas.

We installed a high efficiency heat pump for heating and cooling.

Building Permit

Obtaining a building permit for construction projects is necessary and provides a major layer of the homeowners protection. The most important advantage is that only a licensed contractor can file and obtain a building permit. This alone will assure the homeowner that he is an "good hands" and the construction project will done correctly and will comply with all building codes and local regulation. Of course the homeowner have the option to file the permit as an "owner builder" but than he will not have any protection from the people, usually not licensed, who will do the work for him.


The most frequent question that we get from a homeowner is "how long it takes to obtain the building permit"? The quick answer is: Depends in what Township, City or County the permit will be obtained. Each municipality has its own building department and therefore, the bureaucratic process will vary from place to place.

We at AZ Enclosures and Sunrooms experienced very friendly and consumer oriented building departments that usually process the building permit application within few hours to few days. We also experienced an UN friendly, UN caring and not consumer oriented bureaucrats that prolong the permit process to over 5 weeks or more.

That why it is important to work with an experienced and license contractor, who knows and understand the building permit process in all the municipalities in the state of Arizona.

Bathroom and Room Addition by AZ Contractor

Bathroom addition is one of the best type of improvement that you can do to your home. Most people do not have enough bathrooms in their home and would love to have additional one. Also, any additional bathroom will automatically add to the value of the house. It will give you the best return on investment and will help one day is the selling of the house. However, the key element to achieve the best return on investment is to have the right design in order to lower the construction cost. One of the most costly aspect of a new bathroom addition is the connection of the new waist (drain) line to the existing house main waist pipe. It might be necessary to electronically locate the house waist pipe under the concrete floor. In short, you should hire an experience, license contractor to do the job and not a handyman in your neighborhood. Just remember that the over all cost of the bathroom addition can escalate because of purchasing expensive fixtures. As you probably know you can buy a sink faucet at Home Depot for less than $50 but also you can spend as much as $1,500 for a faucet. Just remember that you can control your construction cost by choosing fixtures and accessories wisely.
