Your existing sunroom should not leak, overheat, or sit unused for half the year. We rebuild older Burbank enclosures into rooms that are comfortable, fully permitted, and ready for daily use.

Sunroom remodeling in Burbank, CA covers everything from replacing failed glass and resealing an older enclosure to tearing down a deteriorating porch and rebuilding it to current standards. Most projects take three to five months from contract to final inspection, including the required permit review with the City of Burbank. BSP Burbank Sunrooms and Patios handles the full scope - assessment, design, permits, and construction.
Many Burbank homes built between the 1940s and 1970s have enclosed porches or sunrooms that were added informally and never fully permitted. A remodel is the right moment to bring everything up to current code and make the space genuinely livable. If you want a lower-cost alternative to a glass sunroom, our screen room installation page shows what a screened enclosure involves and what it costs in Burbank.
The most common problems we find in existing Burbank sunrooms are single-pane glass that creates heat buildup in summer, failed seals at the roofline that allow water in, and framing that was never anchored properly to the main structure. We inspect each of these during the estimate visit and give you an honest picture of what the work involves before you commit to anything.
Moisture pooling on the inside of your sunroom glass is a sign the space is not properly sealed or insulated. In Burbank, where nights cool significantly after hot days, this condensation is a reliable early warning that an older enclosure is past its useful life. Catching it early prevents water from working its way into surrounding walls and flooring.
If you can feel outside air coming in around window frames, door edges, or where the sunroom roof meets the house, the seals have failed. This is both a comfort problem and an energy problem, and it tends to worsen over time as the structure settles. A remodel addresses the root cause rather than patching around it.
Water staining on the ceiling or walls of an existing sunroom, or on the adjacent interior room, usually points to a failed connection at the roofline. This is the most common structural failure in older Burbank sunrooms and needs a proper repair. Left alone, it causes rot and can damage your home's existing framing.
If your existing sunroom becomes unusable between May and October because of heat buildup, the glass is likely single-pane or otherwise unrated for Burbank's solar intensity. A remodel with low-emissivity glass and proper ventilation turns a room you walk past into one you use daily.
Not every sunroom remodel is the same scope. Some homes need new glass and fresh seals, while others need a complete rebuild from the foundation up. We assess each situation honestly and recommend only what is necessary to get the room performing the way it should.
If your remodel involves changing the layout or adding new features, our sunroom design service helps you plan the right configuration before any construction begins. And if the existing structure is too far gone for a cost-effective repair, our screen room installation service can give you a fresh, properly permitted enclosure at a lower price point.

Burbank averages over 280 sunny days a year, and the San Fernando Valley summers are intense. An older sunroom with single-pane glass can reach temperatures well above 100 degrees by mid-afternoon in peak summer, making it a room nobody wants to be in. Every remodel we do in Burbank accounts for solar heat gain from the start - we specify glass rated for Southern California conditions, not glass that meets a minimum spec in a cooler climate. We also serve the nearby communities of Glendale and Pasadena, where homeowners face similar heat exposure and permit requirements.
Burbank also has its own permit process through the City of Burbank Building Division, and a contractor who has worked with that office knows the timelines and what the reviewers look for. Many older Burbank homes also present structural surprises - older wiring, unexpected plumbing runs, or foundation conditions that were not obvious from the outside - when walls are opened during demolition. We flag these during the estimate visit so you are not hit with unexpected costs after work has already started. The National Fenestration Rating Council provides independent ratings for glass products, so you can verify the performance specs on any glass we propose before we order it.
