Alternatively, a good contractor should be able to figure out fully removable glass for colder months.
We had my first suggestion in Mass years ago, it was wonderful. We basically lived in the room. Today we have just screens, no heat or insulation. This is even more wonderful when it's warm enough, but obviously not as usable.
You can't go wrong with either--greatest gift ever  |
FlyingScot, your porch sounds wonderful! When you got to the double Pella sliding doors,it sounded beautiful, but it is more than I was looking to spend. Just regular, cheap screens on the top.
You say now you just have screens. Do you think it’s worth the extra cost to try to just close in the bottom? Do you think it would make any difference for your room now?
