Lakeland Village, between the lake and the hills
Lakeland Village runs along the lake right next to Lake Elsinore, and it feels more like a lake neighborhood than a suburb. On our jobs here we see older lake cottages, ranch homes that have been added onto over the years and newer houses tucked in between. A lot of them have a backyard that's mostly slab, dirt or an aging deck.
Grand Avenue splits the ground in two. On the lake side, lots generally run down to the water's edge and sit low. On the other side, they climb to the base of the hills and can get steep, so before we talk about glass or roofs, I want to know whether your room will sit on flat, low ground or on a slope that needs real support under it.
What working in Lakeland Village means for your project
Lakeland Village sits outside any city's limits, so your local government is the County of Riverside, and the county's Building and Safety Department is the office to ask whether your sunroom or enclosure needs a permit. When it does, the schedule usually turns on the county's review and inspections more than on our build days, so I like to get the plans moving early. Whoever you hire, check their contractor's license with the state first, and the questions below cover when one's required.
We come down from Temescal Valley for jobs here just as we do in Canyon Lake and Wildomar, and in all three the price moves most on what the room sits on. A sound slab costs less to build on than a slope that needs new footings, the concrete feet a room stands on. After that it's the size, whether you want a three-season room or a fully insulated one with heating and cooling, and how the roof ties into your house. I put each of those in a written estimate once I've seen your lot, so you know what you're paying for before you sign anything.
What do Lakeland Village homes need from a sunroom?
Wind and heat come first. Santa Ana winds blow hot and dry through Riverside County every year, and a room out here takes that wind on its roof and walls, along with the fine dust that rides in on it. That's why we tie the frame solidly into the house wall and the base, and we seal the joints where dust likes to find its way inside.
The other thing I see a lot of is bare slabs and sun-faded aluminum covers that get too hot to sit under by July. I ask how you'll use the room before I price anything, because a shaded screen room and a fully glassed room built for the hot months are two different jobs.

Sunroom work we do in Lakeland Village
Patio-to-sunroom conversion
Plenty of backyards here have a concrete slab that hardly gets used because there's nowhere to get out of the sun. If that slab is sound and drains away from the house, we can often build the room right on it, and I check that before we plan anything.
All season rooms
When summer heat pushes you indoors, an all season room with insulated glass lets you keep using the space through the year. We bring in licensed trades for the electrical and the heating and cooling, so the room works in July and January alike.
Deck-to-sunroom conversion
Hillside homes here often have a raised deck instead of a patio, because the ground drops away from the house. I look at the deck's framing and footings first, since walls and a roof weigh far more than patio chairs, and we strengthen or rebuild whatever can't carry them.
Screen room installation
Closer to the lake, a lot of folks just want to sit outside in the evening without the bugs. A screen room keeps the breeze and the view, costs less than a glassed room, and is often the right size job for how people here use their yards.
Patio cover installation
Many older covers around here are thin aluminum that rattles in the wind and bakes the slab underneath. We replace them with a sturdier cover, and if you think you'll want walls someday, we can plan it so enclosing it later is a smaller job.
Sunroom remodeling
Some rooms here were built years ago with roof panels that leak or glass that's gone cloudy. We fix what's worth keeping and replace what isn't, and I'll tell you straight which is which.
How it works when you call us about Lakeland Village
Call or send a request
Call (951) 336-8162 or use the form, tell us a little about the space, and we'll set up a time for me to come out. We take calls seven days a week, so evenings and weekends work fine.
I measure and we talk
I measure, look at what the room will sit on and how it meets your house, and ask how you plan to use it, so it helps if you're home for that part. Then you get a written estimate in plain words, and nothing gets signed until you've read it and asked your questions.
We file permits and build
Once you say go, we handle the permit paperwork when the job needs it and are there for the inspections, and the start date usually follows the county's review. Our own crew builds the room with me running the job on site, and licensed trades handle any electrical or heating and cooling.
Walk the finished room together
When the room's done, I walk through it with you, show you how everything opens and closes, and answer whatever you want to ask. Satisfaction guaranteed on every job.

Questions about sunrooms in Lakeland Village
How do I get a permit for a sunroom in Lakeland Village?
When your sunroom needs a permit, we put together the plans and paperwork, file them with the county office mentioned above and are there for the inspections, so you don't have to chase it yourself. I'll tell you on my visit what I expect the plans will need to show for your room, and we start that paperwork as soon as you say go.
Does a small shed, deck or fence need a building permit in Lakeland Village?
Some small projects don't, according to the county's list of common permit-exempt work, which was written under an earlier code. It lists one-story detached structures of 120 square feet or less with no utilities, fences no taller than 7 feet, and decks up to 200 square feet that sit no more than 30 inches above the ground at any point, aren't attached to a building and don't serve an exit door. A sunroom tied to your house isn't on that list, and exempt work still has to meet the code, so we check with the county before we plan.
When does a sunroom contractor need a California license?
A contractor needs a license from the Contractors State License Board when the job needs a building permit, uses any additional workers, or totals $1,000 or more in labor and materials. Just about any sunroom or patio enclosure crosses that line, so ask for the license number and look it up with the board before you sign. We're licensed and fully insured, and I'm glad to have you check.
How do I know if my Lakeland Village lot sits in a flood area?
If your lot is on the lake side of Grand Avenue, it may be, because those properties generally reach the lake edge and may be part of a Special Flood Hazard Area. A federal flood notice also places part of Lakeland Village in Zone A, which carries a 1 percent chance of flooding every year. I look at where your lot sits on my visit and raise it before plans are drawn, since it can change the base we build and what goes into the permit plans.
How much does a sunroom cost in Lakeland Village?
Your price comes from a written estimate after I've measured, because the base, the size and how the room is glassed and roofed move the number more than anything else. Here, a hillside lot or a raised deck can add footing and framing work, a lakeside lot can mean more thought about the base, and new electrical or heating and cooling brings in licensed trades. A screen room or cover on a sound slab is usually the lightest job, and an all-season room on new footings is usually the biggest.
What is the best way to keep a sunroom cool in Lakeland Village summers?
Shade and glass do most of the work, so we talk about a solid insulated roof over the hottest part of the room, glass made to cut heat, and windows or screens that open for a cross breeze. A room that faces west takes the worst of the afternoon sun, which is one reason I ask which way your patio faces. If you want to use the room through the hottest weeks, we bring in licensed trades to add heating and cooling.
