Screen Room to 4-Season Sunroom in Poquoson, VA
July 7th, 2026Andrea Picardi, Marketing Director
When summer temperatures in Hampton Roads climb into the upper 90s and the heat index pushes close to 110 degrees, spending time outdoors can quickly become uncomfortable. Add mosquitoes, afternoon rain showers, and heavy humidity, and even the nicest backyard spaces often go unused.
That was exactly the challenge our homeowners in Poquoson, VA were facing.
They loved their backyard and enjoyed spending time outside with their grandchildren, but their existing screened-in porch simply wasn’t providing the comfort they wanted. Instead of avoiding the space during Virginia’s hottest months, they envisioned a room where they could relax in air-conditioned comfort, watch the kids play, entertain family, and enjoy the beautiful backyard views every day of the year.
Our team at Betterliving Sunrooms & Awnings of Hampton Roads helped bring that vision to life with a stunning 4-season studio sunroom conversion.
Transforming an Existing Screen Room
One of the biggest advantages of this project was the home’s existing structure.
The screened porch already featured a solid roof and raised patio, creating the perfect foundation for a four-season sunroom. Rather than starting from scratch, we were able to remove the old screening and begin installing our insulated Betterliving sunroom system.
Construction Phase:
This approach reduced construction time while completely transforming the functionality of the space.
The result? A bright, comfortable living area that feels connected to the outdoors without exposing the homeowners to the heat, humidity, rain, or insects.
Why Convert a Screen Room into a 4-Season Sunroom?
Unlike a traditional screened porch, a Betterliving 4-season sunroom is designed to be enjoyed every month of the year.
Our four-season sunrooms feature:
- High-performance double-pane insulated glass
- Low-E glass technology that helps reduce solar heat gain
- Argon gas-filled windows for improved energy efficiency
- Durable vinyl framing with excellent thermal performance
- Weather-tight construction that keeps out rain, wind, pollen, and insects
- Expansive windows that maximize natural light and backyard views
When paired with your home’s existing HVAC system or a dedicated heating and cooling solution, your sunroom becomes a true extension of your home—not just a seasonal space.
A Comfortable Living Space for Every Season
The biggest transformation wasn’t just the room—it was how the homeowners will use it.
Instead of retreating indoors during the hottest days of summer, they now have a comfortable gathering place where they can:
- Spend quality time with their grandchildren
- Enjoy morning coffee overlooking the backyard
- Read a book in natural sunlight
- Watch afternoon thunderstorms from the comfort of indoors
- Host family and friends throughout every season
With panoramic glass views and climate-controlled comfort, this new sunroom offers the best of indoor living and outdoor beauty.
