Sunroom Contractor in Rancho Cucamonga - Patio Rooms Built to Hold Up
Rancho Cucamonga Sunrooms & Patios is a sunroom contractor based in Rancho Cucamonga. We turn patios and decks into sunrooms, build new additions and patio covers, and fix rooms that were put up in a hurry.
Rancho Cucamonga: patios and covers from every era
Rancho Cucamonga started out as three towns, Alta Loma, Etiwanda and Cucamonga, and each old town center kept some of its own feel after they became one city. A lot of the housing went up fast in the 1970s, when families from Los Angeles and Orange County came out looking for something they could afford, and the building hasn't really stopped since. So one street might have houses with patio covers somebody added decades ago, and the next has newer houses with a bare slab out back.
We're based here and work in the cities around it, like Fontana, and the calls are mostly the same. People want more use out of a patio, or they're stuck with an enclosure that leaks or sags. Either way, the slab, the posts and the way the roof meets your house decide what we can build on and what has to come out first.

Sunroom work we do in Rancho Cucamonga
Sunroom additions
Plenty of houses here have the yard for a real extra room off the kitchen or family room, and that's where sunroom additions make sense. We tie the new roof into your house so water runs off and away instead of into the wall.
Patio-to-sunroom conversion
A lot of backyards here already have a slab and a cover, so closing that in is often the simplest way to get more use out of the space. We build the walls, windows and door to fit the opening you've got, so everything closes the way it should.
Patio cover installation
Many of the covers we see were added years ago and have sagged or started leaking where they meet the house. We build new ones with beams sized for the span and real flashing at the house wall, so water goes where it should.
Sunroom remodeling
Some rooms around here were built in a hurry, with trim hiding gaps and doors that never shut right. We open up what's there, fix what's causing the trouble and rebuild from that, instead of adding more trim on top.
Patio enclosures
If you mostly want shade and fewer bugs on a patio you already use, an enclosure gets you there for less than a full room. We set the panels square and hang the doors so they latch, because that's what fails first on a quick job.
Deck-to-sunroom conversion
Some houses here have a wood deck out back instead of a slab, and most decks weren't framed to hold walls and a roof. I look at the footings and framing first and tell you what has to be added before a room goes on top.
Permits, licenses and price in Rancho Cucamonga
The City of Rancho Cucamonga issues the building permits here, and when your job needs one, the city's review and inspections usually set the pace more than our crew does. Before we start, we check what the city wants for your address, then we pull the permit and work with its building office through the inspections. You can check two things about any contractor you're looking at, a state contractor license from the Contractors State License Board and a city business license, which is a separate license. We're licensed and insured, and I'll show you either one if you ask.
Price mostly comes down to how big the room is, whether it's a screen room, a three season room or an insulated room you can use all year, the glass and roof you pick, and whether your slab and house wall are ready for it or need work first. You get your own figure in writing at the estimate. It's the same work in Upland and the other cities around here, and our own crew does the building with me on the job, so the person who measured is the one checking the work.

Sunroom questions from Rancho Cucamonga homeowners
Do I need a city permit for a patio cover or sunroom in Rancho Cucamonga?
Patio covers are on the list of work the city issues permits for, so for a cover, expect to go through the city. A sunroom isn't named on that list, which doesn't mean it's exempt, so we check with the city for your address before we start. Applications go online through the city's Building and Safety office if you'd like to look.
Does a sunroom contractor need a business license to work in Rancho Cucamonga?
Yes, the city requires a business license from anyone doing business in Rancho Cucamonga, and it has to be in place before the work starts. It's renewed every year and it's separate from the state contractor license, so a contractor working here should have both.
How much of a down payment can a sunroom contractor ask for in California?
Under state rules, no more than $1,000 or 10 percent of the contract price, whichever is less. Every other payment should be spelled out in the contract and tied to work done or materials delivered, and that goes for any home improvement job, sunrooms included.
How much does a sunroom cost in Rancho Cucamonga?
There's no fair number until I've seen your yard, because a lot of the cost here depends on what's already there. If your slab and cover can carry a room, the job costs less than one where they have to come out first, and damage hidden behind trim on an older room is something I can only price once it's open. The free estimate gets you a written price for your job.
What causes an old patio enclosure to leak?
Usually it's the joint where the roof meets your house, when someone sealed it with caulk instead of tucking metal flashing up under the siding to shed the water. Gaps covered with trim, gutters that dump onto the slab and panels that were never set square are the other usual causes. We find where the water's actually getting in before we fix anything, because covering it up is how most of these leaks started.
How do I know if my patio cover can be turned into a sunroom?
Start with the posts, the beams and the slab, because a cover built to hold up a roof often wasn't built to carry walls, windows and doors too. I check those when I come out and tell you plainly whether we can build on what you have or what has to change. Call (909) 360-4006 or send the form if you want me to take a look.
