What is an all season room, and what goes into building one?
An all season room is a sunroom with enclosed walls, built to be heated or cooled. In Baldwin Park we usually build one on a patio, slab or deck you already have, so you end up with a real room joined to your house.
Most people who call have a patio, slab or deck outside the back door and want it to work like part of the house, and if yours is a covered patio, a patio-to-sunroom conversion is the same idea. What moves the price is the size of the room, how much glass you want, whether it opens into the house, and what the slab and your roof edge need before a room can go on them. The schedule turns on that same base work and on what the city or county asks for at your address, so your own figure comes in the written estimate once I've seen the spot.
How do you know your patio is ready to become an all season room?
A patio nobody uses
The chairs are out there but nobody sits in them, because the space is open to sun, dust and bugs and never feels like part of the house. Every year it stays that way is a year of space you paid for and don't use.
Drafts in an old enclosure
You feel air moving at the edges of an older enclosure, or you see daylight where the wall meets the slab. That usually means it was never sealed or built to be heated or cooled, and the longer it goes, the more water and dust find their way in.
Cracks in the slab
You see cracks, or a corner sitting lower than the rest, right where you'd put the room. That usually means the base needs a closer look before walls go on it, because frames and glass set on a slab that's moving can pull out of square.
Other rooms worth comparing
Enclosed patio rooms
A good fit when you mostly want your patio closed in, without the heating and cooling an all season room is built for.
Solarium installation
For a room with glass overhead as well as on the walls, so more daylight comes in from above.
How we build an all season room
Before anything gets ordered, I ask whether you want the room open to the house or closed off from it, because that choice decides what happens to the wall between them and how the room gets heated or cooled. Then I measure the spot and check the slab or deck underneath, since a room is only as square as what it sits on. We also work out how the new roof will be supported instead of hanging it off the fascia, the trim board along your roof edge, because one maker's installer training says that board is rarely able to take the added load. Once the plan holds up, we order the parts, our crew builds the room and seals it at the edges, and we clean up before we leave.
Some homeowners find that one of our enclosed patio rooms covers what they need when the goal is just closing in the patio, and others want the extra glass of a solarium installation. I'm glad to walk through both at the visit so you can compare them against an all season room.
Closed off from the house
This suits you if you want a separate room with its own heating or cooling control and a door you can shut. The sunroom specification treats a room kept apart from the house this way as non-habitable.
Open to the house
This suits you if you want the room to feel like part of your living space. A room open to the main house is treated as habitable, so you're adding living space rather than a separate room.

I measure every room myself
I come out to look at the spot and measure it myself, and our own crew does the build, the way we've worked since 2017. One set of measurements from the estimate to the install means fewer surprises when the parts show up.
Ask which license covers enclosures
We're licensed and insured. California's state licensing board says its awnings license covers awnings and patio covers but not patio enclosures, so ask any installer, us included, which license covers enclosure work.
Your lot checked against zoning
Baldwin Park's zoning code keeps open space areas on a residential lot free of structures, except pools, spas and similar uses. We look at where your room would sit before we draw it, so it doesn't reach into space the city wants kept open.
The base and the measurements decide how the room turns out, so that's where I start. Ask for an estimate and I'll come take a look.
What happens after you call about an all season room?
Call and set a visit
You call or send the form, and we set a time for me to come out. I look at the spot, measure it and check the slab or deck underneath.
Talk it through, get it written
We go over the room type, the glass and whether it opens to the house. Then you get a written estimate based on what we picked and what I measured, so the number matches your room.
Sort out the permit side
Once you're ready, we sort out what the city or county asks for at your address before work starts. In Baldwin Park the Building and Safety counter is open Monday through Thursday, 8 am to 5 pm, and closed Friday, and the Planning counter keeps shorter split hours, so we plan around both.
Our crew builds it
Our own crew builds the room and seals it at the edges as it goes. When it's done, we walk through it with you and clean up.
Common questions
How much does an all season room cost in Baldwin Park?
A sunroom addition in the Los Angeles area usually costs about $23,000 to $66,000 per project. That's a regional guide for sunroom additions in general, not our price. Where your room falls comes down to what I find at the visit, and the written estimate gives you your figure.
Who issues building permits for a sunroom in Baldwin Park?
The city's Building and Safety Division processes plan checks and issues building permits in Baldwin Park. Its web page isn't dated, so call 626-813-5265 before you head over. Before work starts, we check whether your address goes through the city or Los Angeles County, and we take care of the permit paperwork when the job calls for one.
Does hiring an installer affect a sunroom warranty?
It can. One maker's installer training says homeowners who install the room themselves, or arrange their own installation, get no labor warranty, and many parts of a factory warranty rest on proper installation. Ask who's installing your room and how before you buy.
How do I know if my slab can hold an all season room?
Start by finding out whether it's a post-tension slab, one with steel tendons pulled tight inside the concrete, before anyone cuts into it. One California city's building guidance warns that cutting a tendon can be very dangerous and expensive to repair. That's why I check the slab underneath before anything gets ordered.
What is the best way to choose windows for an all season room?
Pick windows that meet the sunroom specification's levels for air leaks, water entry and thermal performance, which is how well they hold in heat or cool air. Those three are what keep an enclosed room comfortable. We go over the glass choices with you at the visit.
What counts as a sunroom under California rules?
Under the state's residential code, as one California city's handout puts it, a sunroom is a one-story structure attached to a house with glass making up more than 40% of its exterior walls and roof. Most all season rooms fit that description, since the walls and often the roof are mostly glass.
