Sunrooms in Columbia, SC: Custom Sunroom Additions for Midlands Homes
Green Exterior Remodeling
Thinking About a Sunroom?
A room you can use through Columbia's long, hot summers and short winters
Columbia calls itself Famously Hot for a reason. From June through September the afternoons are humid, the pollen is thick in spring, and summer thunderstorms roll through with little warning. A sunroom gives you the view of your backyard without the heat, the bugs or the yellow film on the patio furniture.
Green Exterior Remodeling designs and builds three-season rooms, four-season sunrooms, glass roof sunrooms and patio enclosures for homes across Columbia, Lexington, Irmo, Chapin, Blythewood and the Lake Murray area. We look at how the room will face the sun, how it ties into your roof, and how you plan to use it before we recommend a system.
Talk to our Columbia team at (803) 882-5309. The consultation and written estimate are free.
Why Columbia Homeowners Call Us for Sunrooms
✔ Planned for Midlands Heat
We match glass, roof and ventilation to the way your room faces. West-facing rooms in Columbia take the hardest afternoon sun, so we talk through Low-E glass, shading and fans up front.
✔ Three-Season and Four-Season Options
Choose a lighter three-season room for spring and fall evenings, or a fully insulated four-season room with heating and cooling you can use year-round.
✔ Permits and Inspections Handled
We pull the permit with the City of Columbia, Richland County, Lexington County or your town and schedule every inspection.
✔ Licensed and Insured in SC
We are licensed and insured in South Carolina and North Carolina, with general liability and workers’ compensation coverage.
✔ One Team From Footings to Trim
Foundation, framing, roof tie-in, windows, electrical and finish work are handled by one local team and one point of contact.
✔ A Columbia Location
Our Columbia office is at 5810 Shakespeare Rd, Columbia, SC 29223. Call (803) 882-5309 any time.

Sunroom Types for Columbia-Area Homes
- Four-Season Sunrooms: insulated walls and roof, insulated Low-E glass and heating and cooling. Built to be a real room of the house, usable in a July heat wave or a January cold snap.
- Three-Season Rooms: glass or vinyl window panels in aluminum frames with screens for airflow. A good fit for spring and fall, and the most budget-friendly way to enclose a space.
- Glass Roof Sunrooms: glass in the roof as well as the walls for the most natural light. Best where shade trees or orientation keep summer heat in check.
- Patio Enclosures: window walls added under an existing roof to close in a covered patio or porch. Often the fastest route to a sunroom when the structure is already there.
- Gable and Cathedral Sunrooms: a vaulted ceiling and a gable roof line that matches the house, for a room that looks original to the home.
How a Columbia Sunroom Project Works
1. Free Consultation
We visit your home in Columbia, Lexington, Irmo or nearby, look at the patio or wall where the room will go, check the roofline and how the space faces the sun, and talk through how you want to use it.
2. Design and Product Choices
You pick the room type, glass or vinyl windows, frame color, doors, screens, flooring and electrical. You get a written estimate with the scope spelled out.
3. Permits, HOA and Site Prep
We submit the permit to the right office for your address and give you drawings for your HOA if it needs them. Then we prepare the footings or slab and the wall or roof tie-in.
4. Build
Our crew frames the room, ties the roof into your house, installs the windows, doors and trim, and runs the electrical so the room is ready for fans, lights and outlets.
5. Final Inspection and Walk-Through
After the final inspection we walk the room with you, finish any punch-list items and show you how to care for the windows and screens.

Do I need a permit to add a sunroom in Columbia?
Yes. A sunroom is an addition to the house, so it needs a building permit and inspections. Depending on your address the permit comes from the City of Columbia, Richland County, Lexington County or your town. We handle the applications and schedule the inspections.
Should I choose a three-season or four-season sunroom?
If you mainly want a bright, bug-free room from spring through fall, a three-season room usually fits. If you want to use the room every day of the year, including the hottest weeks of July and August, a four-season room with insulated glass and heating and cooling is the better choice. We walk through both at the consultation.
How do you keep a sunroom comfortable in a Columbia summer?
Orientation, glass and roof choices matter most. We look at which way the room faces, recommend Low-E insulated glass where heat gain is a concern, and plan ceiling fans and heating and cooling for four-season rooms so the space is usable on hot afternoons.
Can you turn my existing screened porch or covered patio into a sunroom?
Often, yes. If the existing roof and foundation are sound, we can add glass or vinyl window walls to enclose it. If the structure needs work first, we tell you at the site visit.
Will my HOA need to approve a sunroom?
Many neighborhoods around Columbia, Lexington and Lake Murray have an architectural review step. We give you the drawings and product details the HOA asks for so you can submit them before work starts.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. Ask about financing at your consultation or see our financing page.
Are you licensed and insured in South Carolina?
Yes. Green Exterior Remodeling is licensed and insured in both North and South Carolina, with general liability and workers’ compensation coverage.
