We live in North Florida and let's just say the bugs are ridiculous. They are even worse this year due to a fairly wet winter. We're contemplating getting a screened porch/enclosure added on to the back of the house. You know, one of those aluminum jobs.
I just got a quote of 5700.00 for the whole thing, including a slab, footer, kickplate around the entire 15x15 enclosure, some sort of more durable roof, and one door.
Has anyone ever had one installed? Does this price seem high/low? It actually seems somewhat high to me. I mean, the entire room is nothing but screen and aluminum, both of which come pretty cheap, and the guy said it will be done in one day so the labor can't be that much.
For anyone who has one, any pros/cons you can offer and/or things to opt for or against when purchasing?
Thanks very much.
