Your outdoor space sits empty half the year. A three season sunroom gives you a shaded, sheltered room that works from spring through fall - without the cost of a full addition.

Three season sunrooms in Cerritos let you enclose your backyard space with large windows and screens, creating a comfortable room you can use in spring, summer, and fall - most projects are complete in one to three weeks of on-site construction once permits are approved.
If you have been looking at your underused patio and wondering whether it could be something more, a three season sunroom is a practical answer. It costs less than a fully insulated four season room and works well in Cerritos for most of the year, given that winters here rarely get cold enough to make the space uncomfortable. Homeowners who want the full year-round option with climate control might explore patio enclosures instead, but for most Cerritos families, a three season room covers all the months that matter.
Cerritos gets roughly 280 sunny days a year, and a sunroom lets you actually use that light without sitting in direct heat. The room stays connected to the outdoors - it feels open, not enclosed - while giving you protection from afternoon glare, the occasional winter rain, and the Santa Ana winds that blow through every fall.
If your outdoor space becomes too hot or too bright to enjoy for most of the day during Cerritos summers, that is a strong sign you would benefit from an enclosed, shaded room. A three season sunroom gives you a comfortable place to sit, eat, or work that is protected from direct sun while still feeling open and airy.
If you already have a patio cover or pergola but still fight afternoon glare, Santa Ana wind gusts, or the occasional winter rain, a sunroom is the logical next step. A covered patio is open on the sides - a sunroom encloses that space so you can use it comfortably in a wider range of conditions.
If your family has outgrown your home but a full room addition feels too expensive or complex, a three season sunroom is a practical middle ground. It adds real, usable square footage - a dining table, a reading chair, a home office setup - at a lower cost than a fully insulated addition.
A large share of Cerritos homes were built during the city's rapid development in the 1960s and 1970s, and many have rear yards designed for a different era of outdoor living. If you have a flat, underused yard adjacent to your kitchen or living room, that space is often ideal for a sunroom addition.
We build three season sunrooms to fit how you actually live in your home. Some homeowners want a simple screened room that lets breezes in while keeping insects out - that is where screen room installation fits in. Others want glass windows they can open in summer and close on chilly evenings, which is exactly what a three season room delivers. We walk you through the tradeoffs during the estimate so you choose the option that matches how you plan to use the space.
Every project starts with an on-site visit where we measure your space and look at the existing structure. We handle all permit applications with the City of Cerritos and help you navigate HOA submissions if your neighborhood requires them. If you eventually want to upgrade the room to something more fully enclosed, patio enclosures are a natural next step that we can plan for from the start.
Best for homeowners who want a room that closes completely in cool or windy weather but still opens up on warm days.
Best for homeowners who prioritize airflow and an open feel, and want to keep bugs and debris out without glass.
Best for homeowners who want flexibility - glass on some sides for weather protection and screens on others for breeze.
Best for homeowners with a structurally sound deck who want to enclose it rather than pour a new slab.
Cerritos sits in the southeast Los Angeles County basin and gets roughly 280 sunny days a year. Summer highs regularly reach the upper 80s, and winters rarely dip below 45 degrees at night. That climate means a three season sunroom is genuinely usable for nine to eleven months out of the year - far more than homeowners in colder states get from a similar investment. The design should prioritize ventilation and shade management rather than insulation, which is exactly how we approach every build here. The U.S. Department of Energy has guidance on glazing options that reduce heat gain - something we reference when helping you choose glass for a Southern California climate.
Most Cerritos homes were built during the city's rapid growth in the 1960s and 1970s, and many have rear or side yards adjacent to a kitchen or living room that are underused. Homeowners in Artesia and Norwalk - two communities we serve right alongside Cerritos - face the same housing stock and the same climate, and we build three season rooms across all of them. The city also has a significant number of HOA communities from that development era, and we handle the HOA submission process alongside the city permit so you are not managing two separate approvals on your own.

You can verify our contractor license with the California Contractors State License Board in about two minutes. We are fully insured, which means you are not exposed if something unexpected happens during construction.
Many Cerritos neighborhoods have active homeowners associations from the 1960s and 1970s planned community era. We prepare the architectural review drawings and submit alongside your city permit - so you are not navigating two approval processes alone.
The UV intensity in Cerritos degrades standard materials faster than most of the country. We specify glazing, framing, and flooring chosen for this climate specifically, so your room holds up in year ten the way it did on day one.
We have been building sunrooms for Cerritos homeowners since National Association of the Remodeling Industry -standard practices are the baseline we work from. Every project gets the same process: permits, inspections, and a finished room that passes city review.
