Your existing patio slab is already half the work. We convert it into a fully enclosed, air-conditioned room that adds square footage, passes Broward County inspection, and works every month of the year.
Enclosed patio rooms in Fort Lauderdale turn your existing covered patio into a permanent, climate-controlled room addition - most projects take two to four weeks of active construction once permits are approved, with the slab already in place cutting time and cost significantly.
Unlike a screened enclosure, an enclosed patio room is a true room addition with insulated walls, weatherproof windows, and a connected HVAC system. It becomes part of your home's official square footage, which matters for appraisals and resale. Many Fort Lauderdale homeowners use the space as a dedicated home office, playroom, or guest area they could not have afforded as a ground-up addition.
Not sure whether a full enclosure or a patio cover installation is the right starting point? We can look at your space and explain the tradeoffs before you commit to anything.
If you walk past your patio every summer morning and never actually stop, the heat and humidity are winning. Fort Lauderdale's rainy season runs from June through September, and afternoon temperatures regularly push into the low 90s. An enclosed, air-conditioned patio room turns that dead space into a room your family uses every day of the year.
Older screen enclosures in South Florida take a beating from sun, rain, and wind. If your screens are torn, the frame is bowing, or water pools on the floor after every storm, you are already paying to maintain a space that is not serving you. Converting that footprint to a fully enclosed room gives you something permanent instead of something you keep patching.
If your home already has a covered patio slab, you have the foundation of a new room already in place. Enclosing it is significantly less expensive than building a full addition from the ground up because the slab, roof framing, and often the electrical rough-in are already there. If you have been putting off a dedicated home office or guest room because of cost, this is often the most practical path.
In Broward County's real estate market, enclosed living space is appraised differently than a screened porch or open patio. A properly permitted enclosed patio room adds to your home's official square footage, which is a direct input into its appraised value. If you are thinking about resale, this is one of the few home improvements with a direct measurable effect on your listing price.
Every enclosed patio room we build starts with a free assessment of your existing slab, roofline, and home structure. We offer basic enclosures with insulated walls and impact-rated windows, rooms with dedicated mini-split cooling, and fully finished spaces with specialty flooring and built-in lighting. If your goals include adding an entirely new enclosed space rather than converting an existing one, our solarium installation service offers a glass-roof design that maximizes light.
For homeowners who want basic weather protection without full enclosure, our patio cover installation is a lower-cost starting point that still protects your outdoor furniture and extends the usability of your patio into the rainy season. All options are built to Broward County's wind and weather requirements and include permits and inspections.
Suits homeowners who want weather protection and year-round usability at a practical price, using your existing slab as the foundation.
Ideal for homeowners who need the space usable all twelve months, with a dedicated mini-split or extension of the home's existing cooling system.
Best for homeowners converting the patio into a home office, playroom, or guest room with finished flooring, lighting, and interior wall treatment.
Replaces an aging or storm-damaged screen enclosure with a permanent, fully enclosed room built to current wind standards.
Fort Lauderdale averages over 60 inches of rain per year, and the combination of daily summer heat and high humidity makes uncovered or poorly enclosed outdoor spaces genuinely unusable for months at a time. A significant share of Fort Lauderdale homes - especially those built between the 1950s and 1980s - have flat or low-slope roofs, which creates a specific challenge when enclosing a patio: water drainage has to be engineered carefully, not assumed. We have been handling exactly these roof types in neighborhoods across Broward County since 2023, including homeowners in Miramar and Davie.
Fort Lauderdale is also HOA-heavy - neighborhoods like Coral Ridge, Lauderdale Isles, and many newer subdivisions have exterior addition rules about materials, colors, and rooflines. Getting HOA approval before construction begins is not optional - it is the step that prevents a costly redesign or a stop-work order midway through your project. For building code requirements specific to your area, the National Association of Home Builders and the National Association of the Remodeling Industry both offer resources on addition standards and contractor best practices.
We respond within one business day and schedule a time to come to your home. We look at the existing slab, measure the space, check the roof connection, and ask what you want to use the room for - free, no pressure.
We give you a written proposal covering materials, timeline, total cost, and permit fees. Take your time reviewing it - a trustworthy contractor will walk through every line item with you before you sign anything.
Once you sign, we submit the permit application to the City of Fort Lauderdale and help prepare any HOA documentation. Plan for three to eight weeks for review. No work starts until both approvals are in hand.
We frame the walls, install windows and doors, tie in the roof, and connect your cooling system. A city inspector reviews the completed work. You receive copies of the permit and inspection certificate - keep them with your home records.
We come to your Fort Lauderdale home, assess your existing patio, and give you a written quote covering everything - permits, HVAC, and materials.
(754) 243-8239Every window, door, and roof connection we install meets Broward County's wind resistance requirements. We do not offer a non-hurricane-rated option - this is South Florida, and cutting corners on wind rating creates problems you cannot afford.
We pull permits in our own name through the City of Fort Lauderdale's Building Services department and schedule every required inspection. You receive a copy of the closed permit and the inspection certificate to keep with your home records.
We have worked in HOA-governed communities throughout Broward County and know how to prepare documentation that gets approved the first time. No work starts until written approval is in hand - from both the city and your HOA.
We know Fort Lauderdale's neighborhoods, roofline styles, and common patio configurations. That local experience means we can spot drainage and structural issues during the site visit - before they become expensive surprises mid-project.
Every enclosed patio room we build is documented from permit to final inspection - so you are adding real, permanent square footage to your home, not a structure that causes problems at resale. That combination of local expertise and process discipline is what Fort Lauderdale homeowners come back to us for.
