We looked at 316 sold Joyce sunroom projects to see how homeowners designed their spaces, including roof styles, room configurations, doors, colors, and sizes. The results come directly from signed customer estimates.
Among projects that included a new roof, 69% chose a studio roof, compared with 31% choosing a gable roof. A studio roof uses a single slope extending away from the home, while a gable creates a peaked ceiling and roofline.
Nearly 64% of glass sunrooms use a sliding patio door, roughly twice the number that use a swing door. Most projects also use only one exterior door.
White accounts for almost 89% of sunroom wall selections. Beige and Clay make up most of the remaining wall-color choices.
The median sunroom is approximately 180 square feet, or about 16 feet wide by 12 feet deep. Eight out of ten projects fall between 100 and 280 square feet.
The style of your sunroom depends on your home’s architecture, the space available, the existing structure, and how you plan to use the room. Some projects begin with a completely new addition, while others transform a covered patio or deck into a more protected living space.
A gable sunroom features a roof that rises to a central peak, creating a taller ceiling and a more open interior. The symmetrical roofline gives the room the appearance of a traditional home addition and can add strong architectural presence to the back or side of a home.
A studio sunroom uses a single-slope roof that extends downward from the home. Its clean, straightforward shape allows it to blend naturally with many ranch, colonial, split-level, and contemporary homes.
Roofline, size, windows, wall height, and architectural details all influence how a sunroom connects to the existing house.
A sunroom's price can vary based on its size, three-season or four-season construction, roof style, site conditions, windows, doors, and whether you're building a new room or enclosing an existing space.
