Spring is just one week away! At Blue Springs Siding and Windows, we can’t wait for the mild weather, beautiful flowers, and occasional showers the season brings. You’re probably going to be doing some spring cleaning around your home, and you might even have a bit of a spring in your step as you think about ways you can improve your home. Investing in a sunroom is the perfect way to enjoy the beauty of spring while also preparing your home for summer. There are many reasons why a sunroom installation is a great idea, but in today’s post, we’ll explore four of them.

Why Your Home Needs a Sunroom
Square Footage
As a homeowner, you’re well aware of the fact that increasing your home’s square footage is almost always costly. Expanding your kitchen or enlarging your family room, for instance, requires a great deal of construction and can interrupt your life for weeks on end.
That being said, adding a sunroom to your home is a low-cost way to significantly increase your home’s square footage. Sunrooms are treated as additional rooms, which means that your new sunroom will be a highly attractive selling point whenever you decide to put your home on the market.
Versatility
One of the best aspects of a sunroom is that it can be used for almost anything. Do you work from home? Turn a section of your sunroom into a home office! Do you frequently entertain friends and family? Turn your sunroom into an entertainment space that allows everyone to comfortably enjoy the beauty of your backyard! Some of the other most popular sunroom uses include:
- Yoga studio
- Reading room
- Greenhouse
- Play area
You can even use your sunroom for multiple purposes throughout the year as your needs change — we’re willing to bet that no other room in your home can compete with that perk!
Natural Light
Natural light is preferable to artificial light for several reasons. In addition to providing a no-cost alternative to standard lighting, natural light has been proven to aid productivity, promote deeper sleep, and even alleviate the symptoms of depression. Whether you plan to use your new sunroom as a home office, a yoga studio, or a reading room, we know that you’ll love being able to take full advantage of the natural light. As an added bonus, your sunroom will almost certainly fill adjacent rooms in your home with natural light, helping you to save money on your utility bills each month!
Home Value
As home remodeling experts, we know that you’re always looking for ways to increase your home’s overall value. We noted above that sunrooms increase your home’s square footage, and this translates directly into a higher resale value. In one of our previous posts, we noted that the average return on investment rate is 49 percent, though certain sunrooms can recover up to 80 percent. Check out the full article here!
