Homes and backyards across Moreno Valley
Moreno Valley is mostly neighborhoods of single-family homes, many with a slider off the family room that opens onto a concrete patio and a fenced backyard. We're a sunroom contractor based in Woodcrest, CA, a short drive away, and we do the same work here that we do in Riverside, Perris and Corona.
That back patio is where most calls here start. Plenty of those slabs were poured for a grill and some chairs, not for walls and a roof, and some have an old cover over them that's seen better days, so what the room sits on is the first thing I look at. The price moves with the room type, screen or glass, the size and how much work the slab or deck needs before we build, and the schedule turns mostly on permit review and that same prep. Your written estimate spells out the room type and everything included, so you know what you're comparing.
Our services in Moreno Valley, CA
Most Moreno Valley backyards we see already have a concrete patio off the back door, so turning it into a room is often the shortest path to more living space. I check the slab first, and if it isn't built to carry walls, we add footings at the edges before the frame goes up.
A lot of callers here want a comfortable place to sit out back without paying for a fully insulated addition, and three season sunrooms fit that well. We build them with windows and screens on a lighter frame, so you get the use without paying for heating and cooling you may not need.
Plenty of homes here have an older patio cover that's sagging or rusting, or no cover at all. We take out the old one when it's done and build a new cover tied properly into the house, set up so it can be enclosed later if you want.
When you want a room you'll use like the rest of the house, a four season room is the right call, with insulated walls, roof and glass. We tie it into the house so it feels like part of the floor plan, not a porch with windows.
Raised wood decks off the back of two-story homes here are the awkward jobs I like most. Most decks weren't framed to hold a roof and walls, so we check the posts and footings and reinforce or rebuild whatever can't carry the load.
If what you really want is shade and fewer bugs rather than a closed room, a screen room is often enough, and I'll tell you so. We build it on your patio or under your cover with screen panels and a door, so it costs less than a glass room and goes up sooner.

What happens when you call us from Moreno Valley
Call us or send the form
Tell us a little about your house and what you'd like to do with the space, and we'll set a time for me to come out. You don't need plans or a room type picked yet.
I visit and ask questions
I look at your house and what the room would sit on, whether that's a slab, a deck or bare yard, and ask how you plan to use it. It helps to be home so we can walk the space together and you hear what changes the price before you decide anything.
You get a written estimate
The estimate spells out the room type and everything included, and when the job needs a permit we put together the application for the city. The city's normal review is within 12 business days once all the required documents are in, so we plan the start around it.
Our crew builds the room
Our own crew does the build, and I check the work at each stage before the city inspector sees it. After the last inspection passes, we clean up and walk the finished room with you.
Moreno Valley sunroom questions
Do I need a permit for a patio cover or sunroom in Moreno Valley?
A patio cover does, because the city's permit FAQ says all patio covers need one, and a sunroom adds onto your house, which is the kind of work the city's Building and Safety Division issues permits for. If the room adds outlets, lights or a new circuit, the city lists that as an electrical permit too. We handle the application with the city and get the work ready for each inspection.
How long does it take to build a sunroom in Moreno Valley?
Most of the wait usually comes before we build, while plans are drawn and the city reviews them, as the steps above lay out. Once we start, the time on site turns on the room type and how much the patio or deck needs before the frame goes up, and I'll give you a realistic schedule with the estimate.
Does a contractor need a license to build a sunroom in Moreno Valley?
Yes, a state contractor's license and a Moreno Valley business license. The state licensing board licenses anyone who builds or alters a structure in California when the job needs a building permit, uses any additional workers or totals $1,000 or more in labor and materials, which covers nearly every sunroom. The city requires its business license of every business working inside the city, including contractors based elsewhere, and we're licensed and insured.
How much of a down payment can a sunroom contractor ask for in California?
No more than $1,000 or 10 percent of the total contract price, whichever is less, under the state licensing board's rule for home improvement projects. A sunroom is a home improvement project, so that limit applies to your job whoever you hire.
How much does a sunroom cost in Moreno Valley?
The cost comes down to the kind of room, its size and what it sits on, so a screen room on a sound slab costs far less than an insulated four season room on a deck that needs new footings. Glass, roof type, electrical work and the permit side add to it as well. I'll walk through those choices at your house, and the written estimate shows exactly what's included.
What is the best way to choose between a patio cover and a sunroom for a Moreno Valley home?
Start with how you'll use the space, because a patio cover or screen room handles shade and a place to sit outside, while a glass room only pays off if you'll use it like part of the house. I'd rather steer you to the simpler option if it does the job, and a cover can be built ready to enclose later. That's most of what we talk about on the first visit.
