Your old sunroom or enclosed porch deserves better. We rebuild and refresh these spaces with heat-blocking glass, proper cooling, and fully permitted construction so you actually want to be in the room every month of the year.
Sunroom remodeling in San Bernardino means updating or rebuilding an existing enclosed space - whether that is an older sunroom, a covered patio conversion, or a screened porch that never quite worked. Most refresh projects take two to four weeks once materials arrive and permits are approved, while full new additions can run six to twelve weeks depending on the size and foundation needs.
Many homeowners in San Bernardino come to us after years of barely using a room that turns into an oven in summer and a cold box in winter. With the right glass, a dedicated mini-split, and proper sealing at the roofline, that room becomes one of the most-used spaces in the house. If you are also starting from scratch on a bare patio, take a look at our sunroom construction page for more on ground-up builds.
San Bernardino is in a designated high seismic hazard zone, so any structure attached to your home must meet specific anchoring requirements. We handle the full permit process with the city's Building Safety Division so you have a properly documented addition from day one.
If your sunroom or enclosed porch becomes unbearable from May through September, it is not working as a living space. San Bernardino regularly tops 100 degrees Fahrenheit in summer, and a room without heat-blocking glass and dedicated cooling will hit that temperature by mid-morning. A remodel focused on the right glass and a mini-split can change the entire calculus.
Rust streaks on metal framing, water stains near window frames, or soft spots in the floor near the walls all signal that your current sunroom's seals are failing. San Bernardino's intense UV and occasional heavy winter rains accelerate this wear, especially on older aluminum-framed enclosures. Left alone, a seal problem becomes a structural problem.
A hazy film inside the glass that does not wipe away means the seal on your insulated window unit has failed and moisture is trapped. This reduces the window's ability to block heat - a real problem in Inland Empire summers. Failed window seals are a clear trigger to assess whether the rest of the sunroom is worth updating at the same time.
If you bought a home in San Bernardino with an enclosed patio and are not sure whether it was ever permitted, that is worth finding out before you invest more money in it. Unpermitted structures can complicate a sale and may not meet current seismic safety standards. A remodel is an opportunity to bring the space up to code and get it properly documented.
Every sunroom remodeling job starts with an honest assessment of what you have. We look at the foundation or slab, how the existing structure connects to your house, the condition of the framing and windows, and what electrical or cooling work is needed. From there, we scope the project to match your goals and your budget, whether that is a targeted refresh or a full rebuild. Homeowners who want a clean slate often pair this work with our sunroom design service to work through layout and material choices before construction begins.
For homeowners whose existing space is too far gone to update efficiently, we also offer screen room installation as a more affordable way to reclaim outdoor living space, or a full tear-down and replacement for those who want a brand new room built to current standards. All projects include permit management, licensed installation, and a final city inspection.

San Bernardino has a lot of homes built between the 1950s and 1980s, many with older patio covers or enclosed porches that were added without permits or to standards that have since changed. The city sits in a high seismic hazard zone, which means any structure attached to your home needs specific anchoring - not just solid-looking framing. And with summer temperatures regularly topping 100 degrees Fahrenheit, a sunroom designed for a milder climate simply will not function here without heat-blocking glass and a dedicated cooling solution. We design every project around San Bernardino's actual conditions rather than generic sunroom templates from cooler parts of the country.
We work across the entire area, including homeowners in Highland who deal with foothill winds and older custom homes, and those in Redlands with historic properties where matching exterior details matters. Wherever you are in the region, the permit process, the heat, and the seismic requirements are the same - and we handle all of it.
Call or fill out our contact form and expect a response within one business day. We ask a few quick questions about what you have and what you want, so we come to your site visit prepared rather than starting cold.
We visit your home to inspect the existing space, measure, and check the foundation, framing, and electrical. After that we give you a written proposal with a clear scope and cost - no vague estimates you have to decode.
Once you sign a contract we prepare drawings and submit the permit application to the City of San Bernardino's Building Safety Division. Permit review typically takes two to six weeks - we track it and keep you updated so you are never left wondering.
Work starts after permit approval. The crew is on site five days a week and you will see real progress daily. After construction the city inspector signs off, and we walk you through the finished room - especially the cooling system and any new electrical - before we leave.
Free estimate, no obligation. We handle permits from start to finish.
(909) 515-5768San Bernardino summers are among the harshest in Southern California, and we account for that in every material choice we make. Heat-blocking low-emissivity glass and a properly sized mini-split are standard recommendations for any room we remodel here - not optional upgrades.
We prepare the drawings, submit to the City of San Bernardino's Building Safety Division, track the application, and schedule the final inspection. You do not need to make a single trip to City Hall. A permitted, inspected room is what protects your investment when you sell.
San Bernardino is in a high seismic hazard area, and every structural connection we make - where the new room meets your existing foundation and walls - is built to handle ground movement. You can read more about California's seismic hazard mapping at the California Geological Survey.
A lot of homeowners in San Bernardino have dealt with contractors who go quiet mid-project or who add costs that were not in the original conversation. We give you a written scope and price before any work begins, and we keep you updated at every stage of the project.
