Directly From Our Contractor
What Homeowners Should Know Before Hiring a Screen Room Contractor
"One of the biggest mistakes homeowners make is focusing only on price when comparing screen room contractors.
The quality of the foundation, aluminum framing, fasteners, permitting process, and overall workmanship will have a much bigger impact on how the structure performs over time.
We always encourage homeowners to ask questions about permitting, engineering requirements, warranty coverage, and installation experience. A properly built screen room should look great on day one and continue performing well for years to come.
Another thing we see often is homeowners wishing they had made the room slightly larger. If your budget allows, think about how you'll use the space five or ten years from now, not just today."— Lafferty Installation Team
