How much will it cost?
We've done projects from under $3,000.00 to over
$400,000.00. The cost of your particular project will depend
on which model you choose (there are over 30 different standard
and custom models), what size you want, what accessories &
options you choose and if you are purchasing a "Kit"
or a "Turnkey Installation". Please
contact us to discuss your project.
If I sell my home will I get my money
back?
Our company has been in the remodeling industry
for over 30 years now. And after over 3,000 projects we can
tell you that "square footage" increases the valuation
of your home the most. There are different neighborhoods with
different values, but if you build a sunroom that is designed
for 4 season use, it will usually appraise for about the same
or sometimes more than the main house. It is actually possible
to have equity in the sunroom when it is completed. The reasons
you remodel are to create a comfortable, beautiful, spacious
room and to increase the value of your home. We will help you
achieve all that.
Will it match my house?
Yes, Colorado Sunroom and Window Distributors
specializes in matching our Sunrooms to your home. We've done
thousands of Sunrooms in this region and we're experts at dealing
with the special details required in this area.
Will a glass roof be too hot or too cold?
No, the worst thing that we can think of is sitting
in your new sunroom and it's boiling hot in the summer and like
an igloo in the winter. So, after years of research within the
glass industry, a very high performance glass was developed
just for Four Seasons Sunrooms. The"Conservaglass
Select" is 100 percent more energy efficient than glass
just 5 years ago. We have created the most comfortable, energy
efficient sunroom in the industry. Remember not all insulated
glass is created equal and you will be very disappointed with
your investment if the comfort level of your sunroom does not
meet your expectation. The key to a successful sunroom is the
ability to manage its environment properly. Glass is now a major
management tool. See our "Conservaglass
Select" page.
Will hail damage my glass roof?
There is an experience that few people can say
they have been able to see. That is a hailstone hurling itself
from the sky and, splat, it disintegrates on the glass right
in front of your eyes, the glass doesn't even say ouch. We've
seen it happen several times in our sunrooms and testimonials
from our customers attest to the same. It never ceases to amaze
us how strong tempered or safety glass is. The truth of the
matter is we have never had a piece of glass break due to hail
damage. Now, we have seen a lot of plastic panes that other
companies use break. If somebody is trying to sell you plastic
panes please show them the front door. We're sure there is the
one storm with large stones that would dent a tank, but we have
had some big hail around here and the phone stays silent.
How will I clean it?
Easily, we took a survey of our customers and
found out that the two most hated tasks around the house are
vacuuming and washing windows. Vacuuming is something we can't
help you with, but the chemical wizards at Four Seasons have
developed a coating that dramatically helps the glass cleaning
process. This microscopic glass coating is chemically adhered
to the outside of the glass panel permanently, which basically
eliminates scrubbing the glass to get it clean. The coating
is so smooth nothing can stick to it, or as our scientists in
the chem lab say, the resistive coefficient is reduced to the
point that when water hits the dirt particle it is removed from
the surface. In other words, when it rain or when you squirt
the glass with a hose the dirt just slides off. Don't be fooled
with other guy's claims of waxes or Teflon’s that last
for 3 weeks. This patented coating carries the same lifetime
warranty as our insulated glass. How is that for low maintenance?

page.
Can you build it on my existing concrete
slab or existing deck?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no - we usually have
to see it. But the Architects say, "it all starts from
the ground up..." for good reasons.
Sunrooms may be 90% glass. These rooms need to be built on a
very stable base. The foundation not only stabilizes the room
but also creates the thermal barrier from the outside elements
and ground frost that wants to penetrate into the warm soils
inside the foundation walls. Frozen soils swell just like an
ice cube and uplift anything above. Foundation walls have to
be dug to below the frost line in your area, typically 3 feet
to 4 feet below grade. The rule of thumb is - do not skimp on
the foundation. Patio rooms on the other hand are a different
animal, they are usually used as "recreational rooms"
and are constructed to take the up and down movement of a concrete
slab or deck. Installing piers at the main points of a patio
room can sometimes stabilize existing slabs or decks.
Your foundation is a very important issue; it is the "foundation"
of your design. We are real picky about our foundations, all
of ours are "engineered" to last and we do most of
them ourselves "in house".
How long will it take?
Usually from sign up to completion 8 to 12 weeks
(actual construction time 1-6 weeks).
I'm handy; can I do some of the work?
Certainly, we'd be happy to work with you. You
can even purchase a kit from us.
