We come to your home, walk the space, and take measurements. We check your existing foundation, assess sun exposure and solar orientation, and talk through your options. You leave the meeting with a realistic cost range and a clear timeline - including permit lead time. No pressure, no obligation.
Once you sign off, we pull the permits and manage the entire build from foundation to final inspection. You are kept in the loop at every stage. When the city signs off, we do a walkthrough with you, hand over all permit and warranty documents, and your new room is ready to use.
We carry a valid California Contractors State License Board license and full general liability and workers' compensation insurance on every project - so if anything goes wrong on your property, you are covered.
We come to your home, measure the space, and give you a detailed written estimate before a single permit is filed. You know exactly what the project costs before you commit to anything.
We have been working on homes in Gardena and the surrounding South Bay since 2020. We know local permit timelines, common foundation types, and the climate conditions that affect how sunrooms perform here.
We pull all required permits through the City of Gardena before work begins and schedule every inspection. Your finished room has a clean paper trail - which protects your home's value and makes selling easier down the road.

"They finished the sunroom addition two days ahead of the schedule they gave us at the estimate. The permit process was handled entirely by their office - we never had to call the city ourselves. The room looks like it was always part of the house."
Patricia M., Torrance - Sunroom additions
"We had a concrete slab off the back of our house that sat empty for years. They converted it to an enclosed patio room with glass panels and a ceiling fan. Now it is the room we use the most. The crew cleaned up every day before they left."
James R., Compton - Patio enclosures
"My old sunroom had single-pane glass and it was unbearable in the afternoon every summer. They came out, assessed the existing frame, and replaced the windows and interior finishing. The difference is night and day - the room is actually cool now."

Yes - any permanent room addition in California requires a building permit, including sunrooms and patio enclosures. Skipping the permit can create problems when you sell your home. The California Department of Housing and Community Development maintains permit requirements that apply to all room additions statewide. California Department of Housing and Community Development.
Gardena's temperatures rarely drop below the mid-50s in winter, which means a three-season room is usable for 10 to 12 months here - not just three. Four-season rooms add insulation and a dedicated heating and cooling system, which makes sense if you want the room to handle Gardena's late-summer heat events and cool winter evenings.
The South Bay sun is intense, and a room built with standard glass can become uncomfortable by mid-afternoon even in mild weather. Double-pane glass with a low-emissivity coating reflects heat while letting light in, keeping the room usable without running your air conditioner constantly. It also prevents furniture and flooring from fading.
Most can, but the age of your home means a structural review is needed before design begins. Homes from this era were built to different standards, and a contractor should assess whether the existing foundation and framing can handle the load. This review should happen before any contract is signed - not after.
California's building code requires room additions in seismically active areas to be anchored in specific ways that keep the new structure connected to the main house during a tremor. Any contractor working in the South Bay should build this in automatically - not treat it as an optional upgrade.
Permit review by the City of Gardena typically takes several weeks. Construction cannot legally begin until the permit is approved. When planning your project, build in six to ten weeks from your first contractor meeting to the day work begins. The permit process protects your investment - it is time well spent. See current requirements at the City of Gardena Building and Safety Division.
Gardena Sunrooms and Patios is a licensed and insured Sunroom Contractor company based in Gardena, CA, serving homeowners across 12 South Bay communities since 2020. We hold an active license through the California Contractors State License Board, which is the state authority that licenses and regulates contractors in California - you can verify any contractor's license at the CSLB website before you hire.
Since 2020, we have completed sunroom additions, patio enclosures, conversions, and remodels across Gardena and surrounding cities. Every project we take on is fully permitted and inspected - no exceptions. That track record is what lets us stand behind our work with a written warranty.
If you want to keep costs down and you live in Gardena's mild South Bay climate, a three-season room gives you most of the benefit. Gardena's temperatures rarely go below the mid-50s in winter, so you can use the space comfortably for most of the year without the cost of full insulation and climate control.
A cracked or uneven slab can complicate a new enclosure's frame, but it is not a deal-breaker. A contractor should assess the slab during the estimate visit and tell you honestly whether repair is needed - and what it adds to the budget - before you sign anything.
If your home has a homeowners association, you need HOA approval before applying for a city permit. The two processes run separately, which can add weeks to your timeline. Ask at your first contractor meeting whether your property has HOA rules that apply to exterior additions.
The best way to get accurate answers for your specific home and lot is to have someone walk the space with you. Call (213) 659-0398 or send us a message to schedule your free on-site estimate.
Gardena is a small, dense city of about 60,000 people in the South Bay region of Los Angeles County, bordered by Torrance, Hawthorne, Compton, and the city of Los Angeles. It covers under 6 square miles and is almost entirely built out with single-family homes - most of which were constructed in the 1940s through 1960s during the postwar suburban boom in Southern California. Those homes are 60 to 80 years old now, and their backyards, patios, and foundations are exactly the kind of spaces we work on every week.
Gardena is known for its long-established and diverse community - it has one of the largest Japanese American populations in Southern California, with organizations like the Gardena Valley Japanese Cultural Institute serving families throughout the city. Public spaces like Rowley Park - with its lake, sports fields, and picnic areas - are gathering spots that reflect how much Gardena families value outdoor and community spaces. We work on homes from the neighborhoods near Rowley Park to the streets along Vermont Avenue and beyond.
A lot of Gardena homes have had multiple owners and multiple rounds of work over the decades. Stucco exteriors are the norm, lots are small, and backyards often have concrete slabs that were poured decades ago and never quite became the outdoor living space the homeowner imagined. That is where we come in. Whether you are near the Normandie Casino on the west side or closer to Gardena's eastern neighborhoods, we know the housing stock, we know the city's permit process, and we are ready to help you get more out of your home.
