Green Exterior Remodeling
Want a Screen Room?
Bug-free outdoor living for your Charlotte home — year-round
Love spending time outdoors but hate the mosquitoes, gnats, and humidity? Charlotte’s warm climate means bugs are active 8+ months of the year. A custom screen room gives you the best of both worlds — fresh air and natural light without the pests.
Green Exterior Remodeling designs and builds custom screened-in porches that seamlessly extend your living space. Whether you want a cozy screened porch off the back of your home or a full screen room with lighting and ceiling fans, our team handles everything from design to construction.
With screen rooms starting at $15,000, you’re investing in a space your family will use every single day — from morning coffee to evening entertaining.
Why We're Charlotte's Top Choice for Screen Rooms
✔ Custom Design & Build
Every screen room is designed specifically for your home’s architecture, lot layout, and how you plan to use the space. No cookie-cutter kits.
✔ Complete Roof Integration
We build proper roofing structures that match your existing roofline — with shingles, gutters, and flashing that look like they’ve always been there.
✔ Premium Screen Systems
We use heavy-duty aluminum framing and high-visibility fiberglass screen mesh that keeps the smallest insects out while maintaining a clear view of your yard.
✔ Licensed & Insured in NC
Fully licensed general contractor with comprehensive insurance. Every screen room is built to North Carolina building codes with proper permits pulled.
✔ Electrical & Lighting Included
Ceiling fans, recessed lighting, and electrical outlets are standard — your screen room is a real living space, not just a screened-in afterthought.
✔ Locally Owned, Charlotte-Based
We live and work in the Charlotte metro. Our reputation depends on your satisfaction, and we’re always nearby for warranty work.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a screen room cost in Charlotte?
Custom screen rooms typically range from $15,000 to $45,000 depending on size, roofing complexity, flooring, and features like lighting and ceiling fans. A basic 12×16 screened-in porch starts around $15,000, while a large custom screen room with premium finishes can reach $45,000+.
How long does it take to build a screen room?
Most screen room projects take 3–6 weeks from start to finish, depending on the size and complexity. Permitting can add 1–2 weeks upfront. We’ll give you a detailed timeline during your free consultation.
Do I need a permit for a screen room in Charlotte?
Yes. Screen rooms with permanent roofing require building permits in Mecklenburg County and most surrounding municipalities. We handle all permit applications and inspections for you.
Can you screen in my existing porch or patio?
Absolutely. Converting an existing open porch or covered patio into a screened-in space is one of our most popular services. We add aluminum framing and screen panels while preserving your existing structure.
What type of screens do you use?
We primarily use high-visibility fiberglass screen mesh in powder-coated aluminum frames. The fiberglass mesh resists sagging and tearing while providing excellent visibility. We also offer pet-resistant screens and fine mesh options for tiny no-see-ums.
Will a screen room add value to my home?
Yes. Screen rooms typically return 70–80% of their cost in home value and are one of the most requested features by Charlotte homebuyers. They effectively add usable square footage to your home.
Can you add a ceiling fan and lighting?
Standard. Every screen room we build includes electrical rough-in for ceiling fans, recessed lighting, and at least two electrical outlets. We want your screen room to be a true living space.
What’s the difference between a screen room and a sunroom?
A screen room has screen panels (open air with bug protection), while a sunroom has glass windows and can be climate-controlled. Screen rooms cost less and provide that open-air feel, while sunrooms are fully enclosed and usable year-round. We build both.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We offer flexible financing options to make your screen room affordable. Ask about our financing plans during your free consultation, or visit our financing page for details.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Green Exterior Remodeling is a fully licensed general contractor in North Carolina with comprehensive liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage.
What areas do you serve for screen rooms?
We build screen rooms throughout the Charlotte metro including Matthews, Mint Hill, Indian Trail, Monroe, Waxhaw, Weddington, Huntersville, Concord, Gastonia, Rock Hill, Fort Mill, Ballantyne, and surrounding areas.
Can I use my screen room in winter?
Standard screen rooms are best for spring through fall. However, we offer three-season room upgrades with vinyl window inserts that can be added or removed seasonally, extending your use well into the cooler months.
