One thing we hear all the time is what a huge difference it makes to have a screen room or have the lanai screened in. Folks don't see it as a room until it is screened in, and as far as screen rooms, it is a whole new room addition but with a much lower cost than an actual addition. Here are some of the things that we hear from happy customers who have had a screen room added to their home:
Safe space
A screen room is a safe space for the whole family to enjoy. Kids and pets can be out in the fresh air and still within a secure enclosure, so no one has to worry if they might be prey to insects or other critters. In the meantime, their noise goes with them, and they aren't underfoot, meaning that those working in the home can have a little more peace.
Economical living space
Building onto a house is an excellent way to acquire more living space, but let's face it, building costs have skyrocketed. Not everyone has the money to build an addition. A screen room creates living space like an addition, but without the red tape, inconvenience, and expense of an addition. The family can start enjoying the screen room immediately. A screen room adds significant value to a home, not just in monetary terms, but it's an upgrade to the house as a living space.
Comfort
Although a screen room isn't tied to the home's HVAC system, it's significantly more comfortable than being outdoors. Not only because it's protected from the elements, but also because the comfort within the space can be upgraded with fans and heaters, offering climate control.
Ambiance
Furniture, which can be a combination of indoor and outdoor furniture and other textiles can be arranged within the screen room for maximum comfort and style. Many people choose a design theme for their screen room, and select furniture and textile options that reflect their decor theme. By adding plants, flowers, small fountains, and aquarium features, the decor can become an indoor/outdoor paradise.
It's the best of both worlds
We hear from our clients that it is addictive to have the best of both indoors and outdoors in one place. People like being outdoors, but don't want to worry about rain, insects, critters, dirt, and sunburn. A screen room offers fresh air, breezes, and beauty without the more negative aspects. It can be created to be comfortable as you'd like, as well.
More people are turning to screen rooms as a way of adding living space to their homes than ever before. If you're considering adding a screen room, why not give us a call and find out more about how a screen room can add to your living space? We'd love to hear from you.
