Hear From Our Clients
You didn’t invest in a Bunker Hill Village property to watch your outdoor space sit empty half the year. But between the mosquitoes, the humidity that makes 90 degrees feel like 110, and the unpredictable storms, your patio or pool area becomes unusable for months at a time.
A professionally built lanai enclosure changes that. You get protection from the 80-plus mosquito species carrying West Nile and Zika. You get shade from the brutal Texas sun without blocking natural light. You get a space that works in February and works in August.
Your furniture stops fading. Your pool needs fewer chemicals. Your family actually spends time outside again. That’s what happens when outdoor living space gets designed for the climate you’re actually dealing with, not the one in a magazine photo.
We’ve been designing custom outdoor living spaces at Four Seasons Sunrooms since the 1970s. We’re not new to this, and we’re not experimenting with your property.
Our Houston team knows what works in Memorial Villages. We understand the building codes, the weather patterns, and what homeowners here expect when they’re investing in their properties. Every lanai we build gets engineered specifically for Texas conditions—high winds, heavy rain, intense sun, and year-round insect pressure.
We use materials that last. We show up when we say we will. And we don’t leave until the job matches what we promised during your free in-home consultation.
First, we come to your home. No pressure, no gimmicks—just a walkthrough where we look at your space, listen to how you want to use it, and answer your questions. We measure everything and talk through design options that fit your home’s architecture and your budget.
Then we create a detailed estimate. You’ll see exactly what you’re getting, what it costs, and what timeline to expect. No surprises, no hidden fees.
Once you approve the design, we handle permits and engineering. Everything gets built to code using state-certified engineers. We coordinate the whole project so you’re not chasing down inspectors or wondering what’s happening next.
Installation happens on schedule. Our crew shows up, builds your lanai enclosure with quality materials, and cleans up when we’re done. You get a finished outdoor room that’s ready to use—screened, protected, and built to handle whatever Houston weather throws at it.
Ready to get started?
Every lanai enclosure we build in Bunker Hill Village starts with your specific needs. You’re not getting a cookie-cutter screen room—you’re getting patio construction designed around how you live and what your property requires.
We use aluminum framing that won’t rot, warp, or need constant maintenance. The screening keeps out mosquitoes and other insects while letting air flow through. If you want climate control, we can integrate CONSERVAGLASS technology that blocks heat without blocking light. If you need a roof system that handles Houston’s heavy rain, we build that in from the start.
You also get options. Vinyl, aluminum, or natural wood materials. Attached or freestanding designs. Pool enclosures, patio covers, or full outdoor rooms with windows and doors. The goal isn’t to sell you the most expensive option—it’s to build something that actually solves your outdoor living problems.
And because this is Texas, everything gets engineered to withstand high winds and storm conditions. Your lanai won’t be the thing you’re worried about when hurricane season rolls around.
There’s no one-size-fits-all number because every project is different. A basic screen enclosure for a small patio costs less than a climate-controlled glass room around a pool. Size, materials, roof type, and features all affect the price.
What we can tell you is this: you’re making an investment in your property, not buying a temporary fix. Quality materials and professional installation cost more upfront, but they last decades with minimal maintenance. Cheap enclosures fall apart in Texas weather within a few years.
During your free consultation, we’ll give you a detailed estimate based on your actual space and what you want to accomplish. No vague ranges, no bait-and-switch pricing. Just a clear breakdown of what it costs and what you’re getting for that investment.
Yes, if it’s built correctly. The key is using quality screening material and making sure every seam, door, and entry point is properly sealed. Mosquitoes don’t need much space to get through—we’re talking gaps smaller than you’d notice.
Houston has over 80 mosquito species, and they’re active year-round thanks to our mild winters and humid climate. A professionally installed screen enclosure creates a barrier that keeps them out while still letting you enjoy fresh air and outdoor views.
You’ll also reduce other pests—flies, wasps, hornets, and the occasional palmetto bug. That means you can actually use your outdoor space during peak mosquito hours in the morning and evening, which is when most homeowners avoid their patios entirely. Your kids can play outside without getting eaten alive, and you can have dinner on the patio without swatting insects between bites.
Most lanai projects take two to four weeks from permit approval to completion. The timeline depends on the size and complexity of your enclosure, weather conditions, and how quickly permits come through.
Here’s the typical breakdown: design and permitting take one to two weeks. Once permits are approved, material ordering and scheduling take another week. The actual construction usually happens over three to seven days, depending on the project scope.
We don’t rush the process because rushed work leads to problems down the road. But we also don’t drag things out unnecessarily. You’ll get a realistic timeline during your consultation, and we’ll keep you updated if anything changes. Most homeowners tell us the timeline was faster than they expected, especially compared to other home improvement projects they’ve done.
Absolutely. Most of the lanai enclosures we build in Bunker Hill Village are additions to existing outdoor spaces. If you already have a patio, pool deck, or covered area, we can design an enclosure that works with what’s there.
We’ll assess your current structure during the consultation to make sure it can support the addition. Sometimes the existing foundation and framing are perfect as-is. Other times we need to reinforce certain areas or make minor modifications. Either way, we’ll tell you exactly what’s required before we start.
Adding a lanai to an existing space is usually faster and more cost-effective than building from scratch. You’re enhancing what you already have rather than starting over. And because we custom-design every project, the finished enclosure will look like it was always part of your home’s original plan.
The terms get used interchangeably, but there are some differences. A lanai typically refers to a covered outdoor room, often attached to the house, with screening or glass enclosures. It’s designed as an extension of your living space. A screened porch is usually a more traditional porch structure with screens added.
In practical terms for Houston homeowners, what matters more than the name is what you’re trying to accomplish. Do you want a fully enclosed outdoor room you can use year-round? Do you need protection from sun and rain, or just insects? Are you enclosing a pool area or creating a separate entertaining space?
We’ll help you figure out the right design for your needs during the consultation. Whether you call it a lanai, screened porch, patio enclosure, or outdoor room, the goal is the same—creating a comfortable, protected space that you’ll actually use instead of avoiding.
When they’re engineered correctly, yes. That’s why we don’t use generic designs or cut corners on materials. Every lanai we build gets engineered by state-certified professionals who account for Texas wind loads, rain exposure, and temperature extremes.
We use aluminum framing that won’t rot in humidity or warp in heat. The screening and glass options we install are designed to handle high winds without tearing or shattering. Roof systems are built to shed water quickly and resist damage from flying debris during storms.
Houston throws everything at outdoor structures—100-degree heat, 80% humidity, sudden thunderstorms, and occasional hurricanes. Your lanai needs to handle all of it without constant repairs or replacements. That’s why we focus on quality materials and professional installation instead of offering the cheapest option. You’re building something that needs to last decades, not just look good for the first summer.
