Add Value to Your House and Your Time at Home

If you want to add to the value to your home, build that sunny relaxing room to drift away in, or simply make your home more beautiful, a sunroom might be just what you need. Below we try and give you a brief overview of costs.

Rest assured, sunrooms do often cost less than a conventional room, and permits can be obtained more easily than a full addition.

Your overall sunroom cost can range upwards of tens of thousands, including all materials and labor.

You would need to speak with one of our certified experts for a professional estimate, but in general these factors revolve around type of sunroom (the home addition process, different room additions, various other types of room addition costs), base materials used, placement in the home, and size of the space.

Types of Sunrooms & General Price Associated:

Screened Room or Screened Porch is an economical choice of sunroom. It is built with completely meshed walls to allow natural air flow but not insects. In the Maryland climate, it would be considered as a spring through fall use style of room.

Seasonal Sunrooms are typically built to be used from spring to fall, and have either simple pane glass or screens. For your sunroom cost, these are going to be on the least expensive range, and are not built to be air conditioned or heated.

Knee-wall Rooms are an increasingly popular option, and consist of a short, generally decorative wall up to windowsill height, and then continue into large insulated glass windows. This allows privacy, wall outlets, but maintains a wide open view of your surroundings.

Conservatories and Solariums represent the higher end of the cost scale. They are fully incased rooms that allow a panoramic view, but made of insulated glass and are heated and air conditioned. These sunrooms need permits in full accordance with a room addition. Ceilings are glass, often sloping, to allow a stream of soft light in all day long and a view of the stars at night.

Other Sunroom Cost Factors

Material of the Wall

• Aluminum- Not the best insulator, but strong and relatively inexpensive.
• Clad- Midrange price, good insulator, and low maintenance.
• Wood- Beautiful traditional look, but can require heavier attention to maintenance.
• Vinyl/PVC- Inexpensive, good insulator, but not as strong and usually require steel or aluminum supports

Types of Glass

• Single Glazed- simple single pane glass. A bad insulator and only used for seasonal sunrooms.
• Double Glazed- two levels of glass filled with either air or gas. This is the basic insulated glass and the minimum for a home.
• Triple Paned- more energy efficient then lesser levels with twice the insulation.
• Low E-Glass- coated with very thin layers of metallic oxide which provides a type of window “sunscreen” that blocks harmful ultraviolet rays.
• Argon Filled Glass- filled with the non-toxic dense argon gas, improves the energy efficiency of your windows with greater insulation.
• Tempered Glass- also known as safety glass, it is heat treated to break into little pieces rather than dangerous shards, like your car’s windows.
