Building a Sunroom in Orange County? 5 Things You Should Know:

1. After you add an Orange County sunroom, you'll find this is the most used room in your home. They are used more than any other rooms for reading, enjoying coffee, entertaining or simply relaxing.

2. Sunrooms come in many styles and can be custom designed. Sunrooms are no longer an "Add-on", but an extension of your home, so when planning for your Orange County sunroom, make sure that it matches the style of your house.


3. Select a contractor who is licensed, insured by a reputable company and specializes in doing jobs similar to yours. Be sure they use company employees who are covered by workers compensation insurance - and not subcontractors. Ask for a complete written contract and to-the-penny price before construction begins.

4. Sunrooms often look smaller out on your deck or patio than they will when they are completed. Ask your contractor to show you a room in your home that is comparable to show you the actual size.

5. Look at quality and engineering. Ask what certifications and approvals the sunroom has earned, such as ENERGY Star, UL approval, and testing to meet air and water infiltration standards.
