Room Addition-Phoenix, Scottsdale, Arizona

AZ Enclosures and Sunrooms completed the construction of a new room addition in Scottsdale Arizona. The chalange of this project, as well as of any other project, is to design the new addition in the same style and materials as of the existing house. The result is that the new room addition looks like part of the original house. A new visitor to the house will not be able to tell that it is a new addition. However, even if the new room addition looks like part of the old house its quality is much higher because of the high quality of today's materials and componanats. For example, Today's insulated and low E windows and doors are more energy efficient than an old window or door. Same is tru with wall and ceiling insulation, heating and cooling, electrical wiring, roofing, etc. AZ Enclosures and Sunrooms service the entire Phoenix Valley doing many remodeling projects such as: room additions, sunrooms, patio enclosures, patio roofs, home remodeling. They are a division of S & S Builders a licensed, bonded and insured general contracting company. Call for free estimates: 602-791-3228 or write to akagan1@cox.net

All glass sunroom or paio enclosure

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.

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.

Home Remodeling using Geeen Construction



Incorporating "green" construction features in any home remodeling project is part of "who we are". Our company enjoy vast experience in green construction. Green construction should not increase the cost of the remodeling project. It is just a matter of knowledge and experience that is needed to accomplish green construction features at no additional cost.


Here is a home remodeling project in Paradise Valley Arizona. All the stone veneers in this project came from the mountain right behind the house. The natural sand stone floor tiles came from Arizona. Most of the new framing was done with light gauge steel and not wood. The large overhang roof design protects the large glass doors and windows from the direct sun.

Bedroom Addition in Arizona

Most homeowners, who like to add another bedroom are not aware of the basic building codes regarding bedrooms. Building codes for bedrooms are not the same as for kitchen, bathroom or family room. Any bedroom must have an emergency egress (window or door) directly to the outdoor. Therefor no screen enclosure or sunroom can install behind the only egress to the bedroom. Also, the entrance to a bedroom from another bedroom is not permeable. Of course any bedroom addition must have air conditioning and heat. Consult with an experienced room addition contractor for all codes and zoning regulations regarding any type of addition to your home.

Affordable Room Addition in Phoenix Arizona



It is prudent and smart to look for an affordable room addition in today's decline economy. One approach is to convert an existing open patio into an enclosure, using the existing patio roof, posts and header. Of course, such an enclosure must comply with local building codes for a new livable space. Such as, raised and leveled concrete floor and cooling/heating. Cooling/heating can be extended from the existing house system (if it is possible) or a new dedicated unit can be install in the new room addition. The design and percentage of glass in the new addition walls will determine the intended use of the new livable space. A lot of glass will make it a sunroom or an Arizona room. Less glass will make it a bedroom addition, family room addition, office addition or an activity room addition. Our company specializes in the design and construction of room additions, sunroom additions and many types of patio enclosures. In most cases at 30% to 40% less than any modular enclosure, such as four seasons type of a sunrooms. Also, we match the exterior and the interior wall finishing as of the existing house. A feature that most Home Owner Association require today in order to approve the permit. Our company, AZ Enclosures and Sunrooms handle and obtain building permit and HOA permit at no additional cost. You can see several viodeos on YouTube, just to get an idea of what you can do.
