A 4-season sunroom is a true room of the house, with the yard just on the other side of the glass. Warm on a frosty January morning, comfortable on an August afternoon, and full of light every day in between. We've built them here since 1992.
The arc from your first visit to our showroom to the first morning in the finished room. Three chapters, learned over thirty years of building in Middle Tennessee.
Chapter One
Dream It.
It starts at our West Nashville showroom, with photos of your house. We listen to how you want to use the room and how it should connect to the rest of your home, then show you materials and rooms we've built before we talk about yours. No charge, no pressure. You leave with a sense of what's possible.
Chapter Two
Design It.
The room made real before construction starts. We measure everything, match the roof to the house, plan the heating and cooling, and refine the design with you until it feels right. The result is renderings you can picture yourself in and plans ready to permit and build.
Chapter Three
Build It.
When we break ground, you get one project manager, weekly updates, and carpenters who've been building in Nashville for years. At the end, we walk it with you, fix anything that isn't right, and clean up like we were never there.
Every 4-season sunroom is designed around its house, so no two cost the same. Most 4-season sunrooms fall within one of these three ranges.

The Details
The decisionsthat make a sunroom.
Every sunroom is a stack of decisions before it's a set of drawings. These are the ones we walk through with you.
Roof Integration
So it alwayslooked that way.
A sunroom that looks like your house always had it. Gable, hip or shed roof pitched to match the existing angle, so from the yard it reads as one house, not a house with an addition.

We spent a lot of time interviewing porch contractors and they all had the different opinions on how to build the roof for the porch. The design was complicated by the existing house's roof. Porch Company came in and took the various designs and showed me why their simpler idea was the best. Their engineering expertise sold us.
The experience only got better. Their crew worked as a team and demonstrated strong construction expertise. Additionally, they were pleasant with good sense of humor combined with a serious commitment to get things right. Attention to detail gave me confidence. They did what they said they were going to do. Pricing was fair and never changed. They are honest and reliable.
After all was done, months later, a vendor's flooring changed colors with the weather and they immediately analyzed the problem. The vendor's product was out of spec. Because we were under the Porch Company's warranty, they stripped the floors out and replaced them with more expensive flooring. They stood behind their work and wanted to please us.
I don't know how you could work with better people and know they have your back. I could not recommend The Porch Company enough.

Greatest additions we have done to our house. We start the day and end the day on our porch built by The Porch Company.The whole crew was great to work with from design through the clean up. Do not think about it do it!
The pitch, the materials and how the new roof meets the one already on your house. When the slope, trim and shingles line up, the room looks original, from the street and from the yard.
Options, details & the question to ask+
Options
Gable, hip or shed; shingle or standing-seam metal
What shapes it
Your house's roofline and the look you want
What to think about
Light inside, ceiling height and the tie-in
The options5+
Gable
Extends the roofline with a peak. Often the most traditional look, and it allows a tall, vaulted ceiling.
Hip
Slopes down on all four sides for a lower, quieter profile.
Shed
A single slope tucked under the existing roof. Clean and simple.
Shingle or metal
Shingles matched to the house, or standing-seam metal as an accent.
The tie-in
Shingle color, fascia, drip edge and gutter returns are what give an addition away. We match them all.
Details to consider2+
Light inside the house.A new roof can darken the rooms behind it. We look at which windows it covers and plan ways to keep light coming in.
Ceiling height follows the roof.The pitch you choose shapes how tall the room feels.
The question to sit withShould the new roof feel like it was always part of the house, or like a thoughtful addition to it?
.02
Windows & Walls
All of the light, none of the draft.
The windows give a sunroom its view. The walls give it a place for furniture, art and a TV. The balance between the two shapes how you'll live in the room.
Options, details & the question to ask+
Options
Insulated windows that open to screens, fixed picture windows, heat-managing glass, insulated walls
What shapes it
How you'll use the room and which way it faces
What to think about
Wall space, sun and comfort
The options4+
Insulated windows that open
Double-pane glass that keeps the room comfortable, with screens for spring and fall breezes.
Fixed picture windows
Large panes for the widest view of the yard.
Heat-managing glass
Coated glass that cuts glare and heat on a sunny side.
Insulated walls
Built to the same standard as the rest of your home.
Details to consider3+
Furniture needs a wall.A room that's all glass can be hard to furnish. We plan wall space for a sofa, shelves or a TV.
Sun and fading.Strong sun can fade floors and furniture.
West-facing glass.More afternoon sun means more work for the heating and cooling. We plan for it.
The question to sit withIs this room about the view, or about living in it?
.03
Heating & Cooling
Comfortable in January and August.
This is what makes a 4-season sunroom a true room of the house. The system is planned around the size of the room, the amount of glass and which way it faces.
Options, details & the question to ask+
Options
Extending your home's system or a ductless mini-split
What shapes it
Your current system, the size of the room and the amount of glass
What to think about
System capacity, thermostat placement and sun
The options3+
Extending your home's system
The room shares your existing heating and cooling.
A ductless mini-split
Its own system and thermostat, so you control the room separately.
Sized to the room
We plan heating and cooling around the glass, insulation and sun exposure, not just the square footage.
Details to consider2+
Older systems may be at capacity.An existing system may not have room to take on a new space. We check before recommending a path.
Long duct runs lose air.The farther the room is from your system, the harder it is to keep comfortable.
The question to sit withDo you want this room on the house's schedule, or its own?
.04
Flooring
Running straight through from the house.
A 4-season sunroom is insulated like the rest of your home, so it can use the same floors you'd choose inside.
Options, details & the question to ask+
Options
A range of finished floors, chosen with you
What shapes it
The level of finish, sun exposure and the floors next to it
What to think about
Sun and how you'll use the room
The options3+
Chosen during design
We select the floor with you based on the level of finish you want, how much sun the room gets and how you'll use it.
Matched to the house
A floor that carries the look of the rooms next to it, so the sunroom feels like it was always there.
An insulated subfloor
Helps keep the floor comfortable underfoot in winter.
Details to consider2+
How you'll use the room.A room that opens to the yard or sees muddy paws may call for a harder-wearing floor.
Sun and fading.Strong sun can fade some floors over time, which is one reason we choose the floor during design.
The question to sit withShould the floor stop at the door, or run straight through from the house?
.05
Ceilings
A ceiling worth looking up at.
The ceiling sets how tall and open the room feels, and it carries the fans and lights.
Options, details & the question to ask+
Options
Vaulted with exposed beams, beadboard, tongue and groove or drywall
What shapes it
Roof pitch and how closely the room should match the house
What to think about
Height, warm air and what hangs from it
The options4+
Vaulted with exposed beams
Follows the roofline up for a tall, open room.
Beadboard
A clean, finished look with a little texture.
Tongue and groove
A smooth, finished look that suits both traditional and modern homes.
Drywall
Matches the rest of the house, so the room feels fully connected.
Details to consider3+
Warm air rises.A tall ceiling looks beautiful, and a ceiling fan helps push the warm air back down in winter.
Plan what hangs from it.Fans and lights need framing in place before the ceiling goes up.
Skylights add heat.They bring in light but also summer sun. We help you weigh both.
The question to sit withShould the ceiling be the room's showpiece, or quietly match the house?
.06
Fireplace, Lighting & Power
The room you end up living in.
A 4-season sunroom often becomes the room everyone ends up in. A fireplace, good lighting and power in the right places make that easy.
Options, details & the question to ask+
Options
Gas or wood-burning fireplace, layered lighting, outlets, sound
What shapes it
How you'll use the room day to day
What to think about
The TV wall, furniture layout and clearances
The options5+
Gas fireplace
On with a switch, and a centerpiece for winter evenings.
Wood-burning fireplace
The sound, smell and glow of a real fire.
Layered lighting
Soft overhead light, wall sconces and lamps, all on dimmers.
Outlets
For lamps, chargers, a TV and a working morning.
Sound
Speakers built into the ceiling.
Details to consider3+
Plan the TV wall early.Power and data for a TV are easiest to place during framing.
Furniture away from the wall needs power.A sofa in the middle of the room may want a floor outlet.
Fireplaces need clearance.A fireplace shapes the layout of the whole room, so we plan it first.
The question to sit withWill this be the room for working, or for unwinding?
Common Questions
Before the firstwall goes up.
Something not covered here? Ask us on the first call.
Usually two to eight weeks, depending on how many revisions it takes to get it right. We don't rush this part. It's where every decision gets made, so construction can move steadily.
When can you start building?+
It depends on the season and our schedule at the time. We'll give you a sense of timing at your first design consultation, and a firmer start date when you sign your contract.
How long does construction take?+
Most 4-season sunrooms take four to six months from breaking ground to the final walkthrough. Weather can add a few days here and there, especially in winter.
Do you offer a warranty?+
Yes. Our work is covered for a full year, and we stand behind it. If something isn't right, we come back and make it right. After that, we're still just a phone call away.
What drives the cost of one sunroom versus another?+
Most of the price comes down to size, windows, heating and cooling, finish materials and features like a fireplace.
Do I need a permit or HOA approval?+
Permits are required for any new structure, and most HOAs require approval too. Our plans are drawn to be permit-ready. Once your contract is signed, we handle the permit filing and help you with anything your HOA needs.
What's the difference between a 3-season and a 4-season sunroom?+
A 3-season sunroom isn't heated and cooled with the house. A 4-season sunroom is insulated and can be tied into your home's heating and cooling, so it's comfortable every day of the year.
Should we extend our system or add a mini-split?+
It depends on your current system and the size of the room. We'll look at both during design and recommend what makes sense for your house.
Can you turn my screened porch or 3-season sunroom into a 4-season sunroom?+
Sometimes, depending on how it was built. Porch footings, framing and floors often need work to become a fully insulated room. We'll look at it on a site visit during design and tell you what's possible.
