Sunroom Contractor in Merrick, NY

Sunroom installation in Merrick, NY

Merrick is a South Shore community in the Town of Hempstead — compact lots, colonials and cape cods, and a neighborhood character that makes outdoor living space genuinely valuable. We build a lot of sunrooms in Merrick because the lots here don't give you a lot of room to spread out, but a well-built enclosed porch or three-season room gives families the extra space they need.

Most Merrick lots are 6,000–8,000 sq ft, which means setbacks matter and every foot counts. We know the Town of Hempstead setback rules cold and can tell you exactly what's buildable on your property before you commit to anything.

Common sunroom projects in Merrick:

• Three-season rooms off the rear door — most popular with Merrick families
• Patio enclosures replacing old lattice porches or open patios
• Four-season additions for homeowners who want year-round usable space

Merrick permits go through the Town of Hempstead Building Department. We handle all drawings and submissions.

Frequently asked questions — sunrooms in Merrick

What does a sunroom cost in Merrick?

Three-season rooms for typical Merrick homes run $22,000–$38,000 for 130–175 sq ft. Four-season insulated rooms typically start at $42,000. We provide a fixed-price proposal after the in-home measurement.

How close to the property line can I build in Merrick?

Town of Hempstead setback rules for Merrick residential lots typically require 5–10 ft rear setbacks depending on zone and lot size. We check your specific parcel before giving you a footprint. We've worked with the building department enough times to know what they'll approve.

How long does the Town of Hempstead permit take?

Typically 4–7 weeks. We submit complete packages to minimize back-and-forth. Once permits are in, most Merrick installations take 2–3 weeks.

Do you serve North Merrick and Merrick Woods too?

Yes. North Merrick is a separate hamlet but adjacent — we serve it and the broader Merrick area including Merrick Woods, South Merrick, and the waterfront sections near the bay.

Can you replace my old aluminum screen porch with something better?

Absolutely. Screen porch replacements are one of our most common Merrick jobs. We can upgrade to a full patio enclosure with tempered glass, a proper insulated roof panel, and weather-sealed frames — a night-and-day improvement over old screen porches.
