"They make life easy and projects exceptional. Grateful to have them in Lexington, SC! We worked with Palmetto Renovations from fall of 2023 through February of this year and we should have connected with their design specialty showroom and staff years ago as our home has never looked better. Our kitchen finally features real stone quartzite with a blend of stunning LVP waterproof flooring, elegant tiled backsplash and an entirely new lighting system from chandeliers to the under cabinet lighting. They replaced a window in the bay area to match the exterior clad. All trim was stained and by the time things were wrapped up, there were no imperfections to even address. It was an experience to brag about."

Whether you are looking for a truly customized room addition, sunroom, screen porch or just want a simple pergola, patio cover or deck, contact us and arrange for a free in-home consultation with one of our professional project managers.
"Express Sunrooms of Charlotte was hired to repair a large (12â X 52â ) 35 year old deck. In addition to the deck repair, they were asked to install a large awning (12â X 24â ) and to replace 3 glass sliding doors and 2 windows. Before the work began, on-line reviews of the work were evaluated which showed a high satisfaction rating. The quote provided by Express Sunrooms was also checked against typical charges and found to be quite fair. Throughout the project and at every stage of the project, the management dealt with us honestly as if we were family. The customer service was top tier. Since no construction project has zero flaws, it is always interesting to see how the contractor responds to them. We found that Express Sunrooms went above and beyond our expectations. We wouldnâ t hesitate to use Express Sunrooms again and highly recommend them."

A solarium represents a specialized sunroom variant constructed almost entirely from glass, including ceiling elements in most designs, to maximize daylight penetration. While every solarium qualifies as a sunroom, standard sunrooms feature conventional roofing and partial glass walls. True solariums require specialized engineering and materials, starting around $30,000 compared to basic sunrooms that begin around $6,000, but they deliver unmatched brightness and visual openness.
Construction timelines for average sunroom projects range from two to four weeks, while more elaborate or custom solarium installations may extend up to six months. Factors influencing completion include design complexity, permit processing, weather conditions, and material availability. Factory-built systems install more quickly than custom designs, but comprehensive projects require thorough planning, proper permitting, and sequential construction phases from foundation to finishing.
High-performance insulated glass with low-emissivity coatings provides optimal thermal management for most installations. Safety requirements mandate tempered or laminated construction for all panels. Southern exposures benefit from solar-control technologies that minimize heat accumulation, while northern installations prioritize thermal retention properties. Quality glazing represents a substantial portion of your overall investment, making it essential to balance performance specifications with budget considerations.
Most jurisdictions classify solariums as permanent structural additions requiring standard building permits ranging from $250 to $1,500. Projects incorporating electrical systems, climate control, or plumbing require additional specialized permits. Many municipalities also mandate architectural review, particularly in historically designated districts or planned communities. Proceeding without proper authorization risks significant financial penalties and potential mandatory removal, making proper permitting an essential investment.
