I'll measure the space, see how your house meets it and lay out your options.
Request an estimateOrange: an old town site and newer tracts
Orange sits right next to Anaheim, where we're based, but the houses change a lot depending on where you are in it. Around Old Towne and the Plaza at Chapman Avenue and Glassell Street, with Chapman University close by, the original town site still has many homes from the city's early days. Farther out, most of what we see are newer houses on tract lots, often with a slab or a covered patio already out back.
That spread changes how I plan a room. An older house usually has its own rooflines, wall heights and trim that a sunroom has to meet cleanly, while a newer house tends to leave more room to choose the size and layout.
Working in Orange: permits, licenses and what sets the price
In Orange, the city's Building Division takes every permit application, and its building and safety staff review the plans and inspect the site, so on a job that needs a permit, the city's review and inspections set part of the pace, not just our crew. Before you sign with any contractor, you can check two things: the city requires a business license for every business working here, and it says a business may also need a state license from the Department of Consumer Affairs, with that license number listed on its city application. We're licensed and fully insured, we find out what the Building Division asks for on each project, we handle the permit paperwork when the job needs it, and if anything is unclear we check with the city before we build.
The price here mostly comes down to the size of the room, whether it's screened, glassed in or fully insulated, and how much of your patio or deck we can reuse, and the schedule turns on your design choices, materials and, when there's a permit, the city's review. Your own figure comes from the quote at your home. Near Old Towne and Chapman University the streets are busier and parking is tighter, so we work out deliveries and where the trailer goes before day one. It's the same planning we bring to Garden Grove and the other cities around Anaheim.
Services in Orange, CA
Custom sunrooms
A lot of the older homes near the middle of Orange have rooflines, porches and trim that a standard kit won't line up with. We plan custom sunrooms around the house you have, so the room looks like it belongs there.
Patio-to-sunroom conversion
Many of the houses we see here already have a slab out back, sometimes with a patio cover over it, and that's often the natural spot for a room. We check whether the slab and cover can carry walls and glass, and we reuse them when they can.
Deck-to-sunroom conversion
If your house has a deck off the back, keep in mind that a deck that's fine to stand on isn't always built to hold a roof and walls. We look at the framing and footings first and tell you plainly whether we can build on it or need to reinforce it.
Screen room installation
If you want the yard without the bugs and don't need a heated room, a screen room is the lighter, simpler build. We fit it to your patio and roofline, and if you think you'll close it in someday, we can plan the framing with that in mind.
Four season sunrooms
When you want a room you'll use like the rest of the house, it has to be insulated, sealed and properly tied into the house. We build four season rooms that way, and we settle heating, cooling and outlets before the walls go up.
Patio cover installation
Some Orange homeowners want shade now and maybe a room later. We size and attach patio covers so that option stays open, and we tell you up front what closing one in would take.

Frequently asked questions
Does a sunroom in Orange, CA need a building permit?
It can, and we find out for your project before anything is built. The city's forms page lists a residential permit exemptions document, but whether your room falls under it depends on the work, so we confirm it with the city and handle the paperwork when a permit is needed. If you'd like to look for yourself, the Building Division's page names the only route it accepts for permit applications.
Does a contractor from another city need an Orange business license?
Yes. The city says any business that comes into Orange to work has to apply for a business license, and that license only covers the City of Orange. Because we're based in Anaheim, that applies to us too. The city's application page lists a non-refundable $79.00 application fee, which the contractor pays, not you, and the license renews every 12 months from its start date.
Is my home in Orange's historic town site?
It may be if it's near the Plaza in Old Towne, because the Plaza and most of the original one square mile town site are on the National Register of Historic Places. That listing covers that area, not the whole city. I can't tell from here what it means for a sunroom on your lot, so we check with the city before we build, and the city is the place to ask about your own lot.
How much does a sunroom cost in Orange, CA?
It comes down to the room you want and what's already in your backyard, so I give you a figure in a quote after I've seen the space. A screen room costs less than a glassed-in room, and a four season room that's insulated and tied into your heating and cooling costs more than either. Reusing a sound slab or deck saves money, while a new foundation, roof work where the room meets the house, electrical and any permit work add to it.
How long does it take to build a sunroom in Orange?
The building itself is usually the shorter part, and the wait for materials and, when there's a permit, the city's plan review and inspections is usually the longer one. At the estimate I walk you through the order of things, what happens first, what we're waiting on and when our installers start. If anything moves, you hear it from us, so you're not left wondering.
What causes a sunroom to sit unused?
Usually it's a room that was built for the look and not for how you'd use it, so it's too bright at the wrong hours, too stuffy or has nowhere to plug anything in. That's why I ask how you plan to use the room before we talk about glass or size. If you already have a room like that, we can look at what's keeping you out of it and lay out the fixes side by side.
