Dayrooms are a popular home improvement project for many homeowners because of their versatility and intrinsic value. Dayrooms provide a beautiful setting for relaxing after a busy day or entertaining family and friends.

However, finding the best time to begin a daylight room installation project can be tricky. Starting a daylight room too early can disrupt daily activities, while starting too late can prevent you from enjoying your daylight room during prime season. Here's what you should know.

The Do's and Don'ts of Adding a Daylight Room

The best season to consult with a sunroom installation company and begin designing your ideal sunroom is late fall or winter. During the winter months, you'll have plenty of time to properly design the space, prepare the site and ensure that the project is completed in a timely manner without having to worry about any weather-related or otherwise inconvenient obstacles or setbacks.

For many homeowners, if they start thinking about sunroom design and installation during the spring and summer months, it can take about 4 to 12 weeks for the entire process to come together. That way, you may have to wait until early fall, when the weather cools down, before you can really cozy up in your newly constructed sunroom. So, plan ahead to make your leisure time seamless with the beautiful season.

If scheduling a daylight room installation project in the winter, you may also want to consider the following factors:

Contractor availability: most homeowners call on contractors for a variety of home remodeling projects between mid-March and December. If you schedule a daylight room installation during these peak construction periods, you may find that the contractor has less time to devote to the project and will need more time to complete it due to limited resources. Winter is a time when construction companies and daylight room installation teams have lighter schedules and can focus on providing personalized service and quality solutions.

Predictable weather conditions: winter is not usually the most comfortable season, but it is easier for professionals to predict upcoming inclement weather and create schedules based on upcoming storms or events. However, during the spring and summer months, sudden thunderstorms can delay construction.

Homeowners often like to build their sunrooms in the spring and summer, when the weather is nice and the people are comfortable. However, if we think about it differently, and start planning and building in late fall or winter, then by the time the flowers bloom in the coming spring, your sunroom will be brand new and waiting for you to enjoy it. This not only avoids the bad weather, but also allows you to feel the warmth and sunshine of your home sooner.

How long does it take to build a solarium?

While a solarium is a lighter option than some of the larger home improvement projects, homeowners still have to be prepared for the entire installation process to take about 12 weeks. Of course, this time is not set in stone, but it also depends on what style you chose and what features you want to implement in your initial design. In short, planning ahead and knowing what to expect will make your sunny little world a lot smoother.
