Proven Sunroom Contractor in Los Angeles CA - More Use Out of Your Patio or Deck
Lightcraft Los Angeles Sunrooms & Patios builds sunrooms and patio enclosures across Los Angeles and nearby cities like Pasadena and Glendale. We also rework older sunrooms with worn seals and sticky tracks, and turn an existing deck into a sunroom.
We design and build sunrooms, patio enclosures and patio covers for Los Angeles homeowners who want more use out of the space behind the house.
Los Angeles covers a lot of ground, from Griffith Park in the eastern Santa Monica Mountains, with its trails and the Observatory looking out at the Hollywood Sign, to El Pueblo, the old plaza where the city was founded and where Olvera Street runs as a Mexican marketplace. Between those are the neighborhoods where I spend my days, looking at the patios and decks behind people's houses and talking through what kind of room would actually get used.
If your address is inside city limits, the City of Los Angeles is your local government, and its own offices handle permits, business tax registration and historic review. When a house holds a historic designation, the city's Office of Historic Resources reviews the project, and City Planning points owners to its online map, ZIMAS, to check a property's status. That's worth a look before we meet, since it adds a review step to the job.

What you get when we build your roomFrom the slab up.
Tell me about your patio or deck through our contact page, or call (213) 340-1547.
The right room first
Before we talk numbers, we help you choose between a room kept apart from the house and one that becomes part of it. A room built for the wrong use is the one people regret.
A sound base underneath
I check the slab or deck your room will sit on first and tell you plainly if it needs work. Your written quote says what's going under the room, so nothing gets covered up.
Glass and seals watched closest
I spent years installing windows and sliding glass doors, so the glass, tracks and seals get the most care. Our own crew builds the room, with a lead installer running the site.
Sunroom contractor services in Los Angeles, CA
Lightcraft Los Angeles Sunrooms & Patios is a sunroom contractor in Los Angeles, and our 16 services run from a simple patio cover to a full four season room. Most of our calls come from people who want more out of a patio or deck, or who have an older sunroom that needs reworking. The price mostly turns on the kind of room you pick, the glass and frames, and whether the slab or deck underneath needs work first. The schedule turns on that same base work and on whether your project needs permits. Your own figure comes from the written quote I send after measuring at your house.
Sunroom additions
A sunroom addition is a new glass room built onto your house, set up either as a space kept apart from the house or as one that becomes part of it.
Four season sunrooms
Want a room you can sit in any time of year? A four season sunroom is built with insulated glass and walls so it works like the rest of the house.
Three season sunrooms
A three season sunroom is glassed in but kept apart from the house's heating and cooling, built for the family that wants a bright room on fair days rather than a full living space.
Patio enclosures
Got a covered patio you barely use? We close in the sides with glass, screens or both, so the space keeps out dust and bugs.
Custom sunrooms
Custom sunrooms are for houses where a standard layout won't fit, like an odd roofline or a room shaped around a view, so we plan the frame and glass around your house.
Sunroom construction
We build the room from the base up with our own crew, and a lead installer runs the site from the first footing to the last seal.
Sunroom remodeling
Is your older sunroom drafty or hard to open? We rework it, usually starting with tired glass, sticking tracks and failed seals, and we fix what's under it if that's part of the problem.
Screen room installation
A screen room gives you an outdoor space with the bugs kept out, using screen panels on a sturdy frame instead of glass.
Patio-to-sunroom conversion
Turning a patio into a sunroom starts with the slab, since a room is only as sound as what it sits on, and then we build the walls, glass and roof over it.
Deck-to-sunroom conversion
We check that your deck can carry a room before we build on it, then frame and glass it in. If the deck is weak, we'll tell you and deal with it first.
All season rooms
An all season room is a fully insulated sunroom tied into your house, meant to be used every day like any other room.
Enclosed patio rooms
If you want a real room on the patio without a full addition, an enclosed patio room puts walls, windows and a door around the space you already have.
Solarium installation
A solarium has a glass roof as well as glass walls for the most light, which puts the most demand on the glass and seals, the parts I watch closest.
Patio cover installation
We build patio covers that put shade over your slab, and if you think you might close it in someday, we'll talk about that up front so the cover is planned for it.
Sunroom design
Sunroom design is where we work out how you'll use the room, which type fits, and how the glass, roof and base come together before anything gets priced.
Vinyl sunrooms
Vinyl sunrooms use vinyl frames, the same material many replacement windows use, so they're low upkeep and hold insulated glass well.
How a sunroom job goesFrom first call to walk-through.
Call or message
Call (213) 340-1547 or send a message through the form, and we get back to you within one business day to set up a visit.
Site visit
I come out myself, measure, look at the patio, slab or deck, and ask how your family will use the room. The estimate is free, with no obligation.
Written quote
I send a written quote that spells out the room type, what's going under it and who's getting the permits.
Permits and build
Once you sign, we sort out the permits that apply to your address, and our own crew builds the room with a lead installer running the site.
Walk-through
When it's done, I come back and walk the room with you, opening the doors and windows so you see how the tracks and seals work and how to keep them clean.
Sunrooms and patio rooms
Sunroom questions from Los Angeles homeownersAnswered plainly.
How much does a sunroom cost in Los Angeles?
The price depends on the room type, the glass and the base it sits on, so your own figure comes from a written quote after I see the spot. A room tied into your house's heating and cooling, a glass roof or a slab that needs repair all push it up, while a three season room on a sound patio keeps it down.
Is it cheaper to enclose my patio than build a sunroom addition?
Usually, yes, if your existing slab is sound, because you're building on what's already there instead of starting new. If the slab is cracked or uneven, fixing it first narrows the gap, and I'll tell you that plainly at the visit.
How long does it take to build a sunroom in Los Angeles?
It depends mostly on whether the base needs work and whether your project needs permits, so I give you a realistic schedule with the quote instead of a guess on the phone. Base repair, a glass roof or a permit review all add time.
Is your sunroom company licensed and insured?
Yes, we're licensed and insured. Inside Los Angeles city limits, every business working in the city also has to hold a city business tax registration, which the Office of Finance issues.
Can you put a sunroom on my existing patio or deck?
Often, yes, but I check the slab or deck first, because the room is only as sound as what it sits on. If it's tired or weak, we deal with it before we build, and the quote says so.
Who handles permits for a sunroom in Los Angeles?
We do. We find out which office covers your address and handle the applications and inspections when your project needs them, and your contract says in writing who's getting the permits. Work that affects the public right of way, like the sidewalk or street, goes through the city's Bureau of Engineering.
Do you guarantee your sunroom work?
Yes, our work is satisfaction guaranteed. If something about the finished room doesn't feel right, tell me, because the glass and seals are the parts I care about most.
Should I get a three season or four season sunroom?
Pick a four season room if you want a space that works like the rest of the house, and a three season room if you want a bright spot off the patio for fair days. It's the same call I used to help people make between a basic slider and a fully insulated door, and I'd decide it by how often you'll be in the room, not by budget alone.
