Sun Rooms - Screened Patios

Sunday, July 27th, 2008

The Deserts of Arizona does not have allot of  mosquitos. Yet there are plenty of other insects that take to the air and become a nuisance. Out here in the wide open spaces plenty of Desert Dwellers raise horses. Horses have the ability to attract flies. Fly traps are a dime a dozen, with none of them working very well.

City Dwellers have there share of flying pest also. With large amount of watered vegetation causing higher humidity. Some times of the year we can enjoy a pesky amount of nats. Along with wasp and bees.

Our family remodeling company AMCorp, recently finished a project that eliminated all of the above, and also answered the issues below.

The  Client has a four year old home on two acres. There were three concerns she wanted dealt with. #1 She was very concerned about insects, crawling or flying and all the ground visitors like mice, tarantulas, lizards and scorpions. Rarely did she go outside. #2  She also wanted to be able to garden. This meant going outside. #3  The south west side of the home had an excessive amount of sun all day. Causing sun light issues in the master bedroom.

We at AMCorp as well as our Customer were pleased with results of this newly constructed custom Screen Room. During the construction phase flies and nats made us crazy. The day after we installed the fly screen and doors, there was not a single critter flying or crawling. The direct sun was gone dropping the radiant heat tremendously. The floor was left dirt for gardening. Cobble stone would look wonderful. Our client is thrilled to have a screened in garden area, safe from her pesky friends.

Porches and Outdoor Living

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

Working in the Office today. Although we are open 24/7 @ Officeopen.com . Just leave an email and Jacob or Jerry will contact you to answer any questions. You can also call us.

Our family lives in New River (a small city in Arizona), and operates a remodeling company. Now that the price of housing has moved up, allot of families are expanding the homes they’re in.

Many of the older homes we seen have less than perfect porches. Personally, one of our favorite pastimes is sitting outside in the shade, and enjoying the great mountain and or desert landscaped views. Living in Arizona allows plenty of opportunity for this outdoor living but you have to have a great area to enjoy it all from! Below are a few pictures of some of the porches we have built for clients. If your porch needs some work we can help you!
