All season rooms in West Covina, CA - a room you can sit in every month of the year
Patio too hot by afternoon and too cool after dark? We build a heated, cooled glass room you'll use all year.
Is an all season room right for your West Covina patio?
An all season room is a fully enclosed sunroom with all weather windows and its own heating and cooling, so in West Covina it turns a patio or deck you only enjoy on mild evenings into a room you can use any month of the year.
Most folks who call us have a patio or deck that's great for part of the year and too hot or too buggy the rest of it, so the first thing I ask is whether you really want the room heated and cooled or whether a three season room would do the job. If you go all season, the price mostly moves with the room's size, how it ties into your roofline, how you'll heat and cool it, and the windows and insulation you pick, and the schedule mostly turns on the permit and on how soon we settle those choices together. I can't give you a real number from a photo, so your own figure comes from the on-site estimate, once I've seen where the room meets your house.
How we build an all season room
Before anything goes up, we settle the insulation and the windows with you, because getting them into the walls, floor and roof from the start is far easier than tearing things open to add them later. Then we work out how the room ties into your house, whether it sits on your old patio or your deck, how the new roof meets your roofline and whether it opens into the house or closes off behind a door. Once the permit's approved, our crew frames the room, ties the roof in, seals the joints along the floor track and the house wall, sets the windows and finishes the inside, and we clean up before we call it done.
Not everyone needs full heating and cooling. If you mostly want shade and shelter from wind and bugs, enclosed patio rooms close in the space you already have, and if you're after as much light as you can get, with glass overhead too, solarium installation may suit you better. I'll tell you on site which one fits how you plan to use the room.
Why West Covina homeowners call us for all season rooms
You talk to the person building it
I'm the one who comes out to look at your job, and our small crew does the build with me on site. The questions you ask me at the estimate get answered by the same person who's standing there when the roof ties in.
In business since 2023, awkward jobs welcome
We've been in business since 2023, and we're best known for working out the awkward ones, like odd rooflines, older patios and tired decks. Those are houses where a room has to be fitted in rather than dropped on, and that's the part of this work I enjoy most.
Licensed and fully insured
West Covina Sunrooms & Patios is licensed and fully insured, which matters when a crew is working on your roof and walls. If you're comparing contractors, the state licensing board's awning class covers awnings and patio covers, and it doesn't include patio enclosures.
Permits and inspections handled for you
We're based in West Covina and work in the cities around it, and when your room needs a permit, we take care of the paperwork and inspections with the city or county office that covers your address. In West Covina that's the city's Building Division, so you're not the one filing plans or waiting around for the inspector.
On an all season room, what matters most is the line where it meets your house, because that's where a small slip turns into a leak or a draft years later. When you're ready, send us your project or call (626) 412-8694 with the room's rough size, whether it'll open to the house and how you'd like to heat and cool it.

A look at all season rooms
What people ask about all season rooms
How much does an all season room cost in the Los Angeles area?
A sunroom in Los Angeles usually costs about $16,000 to $120,000 per job, and that's the going range in the area, not our price. Larger rooms that need a foundation and come with heating and air conditioning land toward the high end. I'll give you your own number once I've seen the spot.
What's the difference between an all season room and a three season room?
An all season room is heated and cooled and has all weather windows, while three season rooms, enclosed porches and enclosed patios usually aren't heated or cooled and have uninsulated windows or screens. If you want to sit out there on the hottest and coldest days, you're choosing all season. California sets efficiency standards for windows and doors by climate zone, so we work out which zone your address falls in when we plan the windows.
Should my all season room open into the house or have its own door?
Open it to the house if you want it to work as part of your living space, because the industry's sunroom standard counts a room open to the main house as habitable and one closed off with its own heating and cooling as non-habitable. That choice sets how the room is classed, so it's one of the first things I'll ask you.
How do I apply for a sunroom permit in West Covina?
Permits in West Covina come from the city's Building Division, which also does the plan review and inspections, and applications and plans go in through the city's online One Stop Building Permit Center Portal, not by email. An addition the state energy code covers also needs a Certificate of Compliance, which has to be approved before the permit is issued. The city caps floor area and building coverage on single-family lots, so I check your lot's limits before we settle the room's size.
How do I keep a new sunroom from leaking at the floor?
Get the joints along the floor track sealed right while the room goes up, because one sunroom maker's installer training says a leak there can only be fixed by taking the room apart. It's fair to ask any installer how they seal those joints, and I'll walk you through how we do it at the estimate.
How do I take care of an all season room?
Plan on a yearly look at the roof and gutters, and keep the door and window tracks clean and smooth, which is what one sunroom maker's guide suggests. The same guide says to use a pure silicone spray on the tracks instead of an oil-based lubricant, and to keep the weep holes, the small drain openings, clear.
Other rooms we build
- Enclosed patio rooms
A good fit when you want your patio sheltered and usable most of the year without paying for full heating and cooling.
- Solarium installation
Worth a look if you want glass overhead as well as on the walls, so the room fills with daylight.
