Your patio could be a comfortable outdoor room. Bugs, harsh sun, and Santa Ana winds keep most Pomona families inside. A properly built screen room fixes that at a fraction of the cost of a glass sunroom.

Screen room installation in Pomona means building a permanent aluminum-framed enclosure around your existing patio slab, wrapped in solar-blocking mesh that keeps bugs and wind out while letting air and light through, with most installations completed in two to four days once permits are approved.
A screen room sits between an open patio and a fully enclosed glass sunroom. It is open to the air, which means no air conditioning required, and it costs significantly less to build than a glass enclosure. For Pomona homeowners who want to use their backyard through the evenings without bugs or direct afternoon sun, it is often the most practical and affordable option available.
If you decide later that you want a fully enclosed space, a screen room can often be upgraded with glass panels. We also handle patio enclosures for homeowners who want a sturdier, fully sealed structure from the start.
If the sun hits your backyard hard enough that you are back inside by 10 a.m., your outdoor space is not working for you. Pomona's east-facing and south-facing patios can become uncomfortably bright and hot within hours of sunrise. A screen room with solar mesh creates a shaded, breezy space you can sit in through the afternoon.
If you cannot eat outside or have a conversation on your patio after dark without mosquitoes or gnats making it miserable, a screen room solves that completely. Pomona's warm evenings from spring through fall are genuinely pleasant, and a screen room lets you enjoy them without the swatting and spraying.
Many Pomona homes have an existing patio slab that the family rarely uses because there is no shade or enclosure. If your slab is in decent shape, it can often serve as the floor for a screen room without additional concrete work, which keeps costs down. A contractor can assess your slab in about 15 minutes.
If you have an aluminum patio cover or wood pergola that is rusting, sagging, or pulling away from the house, replacing it with a proper screen room is a natural upgrade. Rather than patching an old structure, you get a fully enclosed functional space that adds real value to your home.
We build screen rooms using aluminum extrusion framing attached securely to your home, with proper flashing at the ledger connection and a concrete slab base. The framing is designed to handle Pomona's occasional strong winds and ground movement without pulling away from the house. We offer a range of mesh options, from standard fiberglass to solar screen mesh that significantly reduces heat and glare while still letting air circulate freely.
Every installation goes through the City of Pomona's permit process, which means a city inspector verifies the finished structure meets local building standards. If you want an enclosed space with more privacy or weather protection, we can also install a patio-to-sunroom conversion with glass panels instead of mesh. For homeowners who want to explore design options before committing, see our patio enclosures service for side-by-side comparisons of screen and glass solutions.
Best for homeowners who want a bug-free, shaded outdoor space at the lowest cost, using fiberglass mesh on a new aluminum frame.
Best for south- or west-facing patios where afternoon heat is the main problem - solar mesh reduces heat and glare without blocking airflow.
Best for homeowners who want flexibility - open most of the year, with panels that close during Pomona's smoke season or wind events.
Best for backyards that do not have an existing concrete pad or where the existing slab is too damaged to serve as the floor.
Pomona is in the eastern San Gabriel Valley, where summer temperatures regularly hit the mid-90s and occasionally pass 100 degrees. That kind of heat means the type of screen mesh you use actually matters. Standard mesh lets in more UV and radiant heat than a solar-blocking mesh, and on a 95-degree afternoon there is a real difference between the two in terms of how comfortable the room feels. Pomona also sits in the path of Santa Ana winds that blow in fall and early winter, sometimes with gusts above 50 miles per hour. A properly built screen room with a solid aluminum frame and correct fasteners at the ledger connection will handle those winds without pulling away from your house or distorting the mesh panels. The Aluminum Association publishes guidelines for structural aluminum used in residential screen enclosures, which gives you a baseline for evaluating whether a contractor is building to industry standards.
We work throughout the Pomona area, including Ontario and Chino, where many of the same housing conditions and permit requirements apply. A large share of homes in this part of the Inland Empire have existing concrete slabs that are in good enough condition to serve as the base for a screen room without additional concrete work, which keeps costs down. During the estimate visit, we assess your slab honestly and tell you upfront whether any repair or leveling is needed before we start framing.
Tell us the size of your patio, whether you have a slab, and what you want the space to do. We reply within one business day. This step is free and does not commit you to anything.
We walk your patio, measure the space, and check your existing slab and the wall where the frame will attach. You receive a written quote within a few days that breaks down exactly what is included so you can compare it against other bids fairly.
Once you sign, we submit the permit application to the City of Pomona and, if applicable, prepare your HOA submission at the same time. This stage typically takes one to three weeks. We keep you updated throughout so you are not chasing us for news.
Most screen room installations take two to four days. Workers stay outside your home throughout the build. After the city inspector signs off, you can move furniture in the same day. We walk you through the finished room before we close out the job.
No pressure. No obligation. We reply within one business day.
(909) 729-4969We recommend mesh options based on which direction your patio faces and how much heat you need to block, not just what is cheapest. Solar mesh on a south-facing patio in Pomona makes a real difference in comfort from June through September.
The most common failure point in screen rooms is where the frame attaches to your house. We use proper flashing and fasteners at every ledger connection so the structure stays secure through years of Santa Ana winds and seasonal ground movement.
Pomona has a lot of older slabs from the 1950s through 1970s that have shifted or cracked over the decades. We check your slab during the estimate visit and price any repair work into your quote upfront, so there are no mid-project surprises.
We file with the City of Pomona, manage the HOA submission if needed, and schedule the final inspection. A California CSLB license is required for this work, and you can verify any contractor's license status at cslb.ca.gov before you sign anything.
Each of these details reflects a specific thing that goes wrong in screen room projects when a contractor cuts corners. We build every job in Pomona the same way because that is how you get a room that is still solid a decade later.
