Screen Rooms
Enjoy the outdoors without bugs, sun glare, or debris with an affordable screen room.
Screen rooms are one of the most popular outdoor improvements for Flagstaff homeowners. They're simple, affordable, and incredibly practical. A screen room lets you enjoy fresh air, natural light, and your backyard views without dealing with mosquitoes, flies, wasps, or other pests. It's outdoor living made easy.
What exactly is a screen room? It's a covered outdoor space with walls made of durable mesh screens. The screens keep bugs out while letting air flow through. You get a roof overhead for shade and protection from rain, plus a solid floor underfoot. Screen rooms work perfectly as outdoor dining areas, lounging spaces, or play areas for kids and pets.
At BoldChoice Flagstaff Sunrooms, we've been building screen rooms since 2024. We understand the local climate and what materials work best in Flagstaff's high desert environment. Our professional team designs and installs screen rooms that last for years with minimal maintenance. Whether you're adding to an existing patio or building a brand new structure, we'll create a screen room that fits your property and your budget.
Why Choose a Screen Room?
Screen rooms are a smart choice for anyone who loves spending time outdoors but hates dealing with bugs. Here in Flagstaff, mosquitoes and flies can be a real problem, especially in the evenings. A screen room gives you a bug-free zone where you can relax without constantly swatting or spraying repellent.
But bug protection is just the beginning. Screen rooms also provide shade from intense sun, shelter from wind, and a barrier against leaves, pollen, and debris. You can enjoy your backyard in comfort, even on days when the weather isn't perfect. And because screen rooms are open to the air, you don't need heating or cooling. You use them during the warm months and winterize them when temperatures drop.
- Affordable: Screen rooms cost less than glass sunrooms or traditional additions
- Fast installation: Most projects take 1 to 2 weeks from start to finish
- Low maintenance: Screens are easy to clean and rarely need repairs
- Versatile: Use your screen room for dining, entertaining, hobbies, or relaxing
- Increased home value: Outdoor living spaces appeal to buyers
- Natural ventilation: Fresh air flows through without bugs or debris
If you're considering other options, our patio enclosures offer more weather protection with glass panels, while screen rooms prioritize airflow and simplicity. We can help you decide which option works best for your needs.
Screen Room Design Options
Every screen room we build is custom designed to fit your property and lifestyle. You're not limited to a basic box. Here are some design choices to consider.
Size and Shape
Screen rooms can be any size, from small 8x10 foot spaces to large 20x30 foot rooms or bigger. The size depends on your available space and how you plan to use the room. Rectangular shapes are most common, but we can also build L-shaped or wraparound designs if your property allows. We'll help you choose a layout that maximizes your outdoor views and fits your budget.
Roofing Options
Most screen rooms have solid roofs to provide shade and rain protection. You can choose shingle roofing to match your home, metal roofing for durability, or insulated panels for extra comfort. Some homeowners prefer screen roofs for maximum airflow, though these don't provide rain protection. We'll explain the pros and cons of each option so you can make an informed decision.
Screen and Frame Materials
We use heavy-duty aluminum or vinyl frames that resist rust and corrosion. Screens come in different mesh sizes and materials. Standard fiberglass screens work for most situations, but we also offer solar screens for extra UV protection and pet-resistant screens if you have dogs or cats. The frame can be painted to match your home's exterior, or we can use natural aluminum or vinyl finishes.
Flooring and Extras
Flooring options include concrete, pavers, tile, or wood decking. If you're building on an existing patio, we work with what you have. For new construction, we'll recommend the best flooring for your budget and use. We can also add ceiling fans, lighting, electrical outlets, and screened doors to make your screen room fully functional.
What to Expect During Installation
Building a screen room is straightforward, but it still requires professional expertise. Here's how the process works when you hire BoldChoice Flagstaff Sunrooms.
First, we meet with you to discuss your vision. We measure your space, review your property, and talk about how you'll use the screen room. Based on your input, we create a custom design and provide a detailed estimate. We also handle all permitting and paperwork, so you don't have to deal with the city or county yourself.
Once you approve the plan, we schedule installation. Most screen room projects take 1 to 2 weeks from start to finish. We start by building the foundation or preparing your existing patio. Next, we install the frame and roof. Finally, we add the screens, trim, and any extras like fans or lights. We keep your property clean and work efficiently to minimize disruption.
When we're finished, you'll have a beautiful, functional screen room ready to enjoy. If you later decide you want more protection from the elements, we can help with that too. Our conversion services make it easy to upgrade your screen room to a three-season or four-season sunroom.
