If you choose to have a pre made sunroom kit installed in your porch, you might be able to get the installation done with the help of your handy man, or even on your own if you have reasonably good DIY skills. If you plan to build a sunroom from scratch, then you'll have to find a Austin area sunroom contractor who can undertake the project.
There are a lot of things to look for when you're searching for a Austin, TX area sunroom contractor. Ask for licensing and certification credentials. He must be properly licensed, and must have membership of trade organizations in his business. He should have solid experience in his field, and should have a ready portfolio of past completed works to show you. If he isn't able to show you a portfolio, ask for references from his former clients. Once you get these details, call up the people and ask if you can come over and have a look at their sunroom. At the very least, ask them about their experience with the contractor.
Other questions to ask -- does your Austin, Texas area sunroom contractor have a brick and mortar address? Does the sunroom company have professional help desk personnel who answer the phone? Are employees neat and uniformed? Do they drive a company car? Does the office have a physical address? The answer to all these questions must be yes. Make sure your contractor is insured. Don't be afraid to ask him -- it's common policy. If he has sub contractors working under him, they must be insured too. If not, you might be held liable for any accidents that occur on the premises.
We have an existing sun room but want to upgrade and remodel it. Thank You
