Screen Rooms: The Most Affordable Patio Enclosure

Transform your patio, deck, or porch in to a screen room!. Screens protect you from bugs and debris, while the roof protects you from direct sunlight. As a bonus, some screen rooms can convert into three-season room at any time. That said, we answer some questions about what makes screen rooms the most affordable patio enclosure option.

What Makes a Patio Enclosure a Screen Room?

Screen rooms are a little different from three and four-season sunrooms because screen rooms are uninsulated. Screen rooms are built out of aluminum framing and screen mesh. The mesh is highly durable, with tear-resistant technology. The screens are easily removable, and the entry door includes a security lock for safety.

 

Why Are Screen Rooms the Most Affordable Option?

 

The main reason screen rooms are the most affordable patio enclosure is because they require fewer materials and less labor. Many open porches can transform into screen rooms as they are under existing roofs, which further lowers the cost. The average screen room can be up to 40% less than a four-season sunroom, and up to 26% less than a three-season sunroom.
