I had mine 10 x 17 finished up last month by Custom Windows of Leesburg. The cost of Windows and Doors for 3 "walls" (including installation and permitting) was $14,500. I had tile floor ($2300), mini-split AC ($3000) , exterior Coolaroo Shades ($450). I used Custom Windows of Leesburg based on all the highly favorable comments I've seen on this site. However, based on my experience using them I can not recommend them whatsoever. I had to get them to come back multiple times to correct a combination of poor installation practices and defective manufacture items. They finally got it done to satisfaction, but getting to that point took more persistence on my side than anyone would think should be necessary.

No rain comes in at all. It is sealed up nice and tight.

15k to 20k For a 9x15 room ! Are you trying to give your husband a heart attack! Buy him some new clubs and a decent fishing pole ! He recognizes you love him , enjoy your time together , don't share it with a construction crew

$9,000. - $20,000. Why not call the companies and get a price?

Yes prices way up . I did mine single pain 34 ft of glass for 5,000 10 years ago my neighbor did his last year for 10,000. Keep in mind you may have to also paint your walls or raise your floor for a few thousand more. I used single pain. Yes it's a little cooler or hotter in the Summers and I now wish I used double but it's really not a big deal

[J1ceasar]

And don't listen to the naysayers you spend what you want on your husband's he loves you no matter what you do for him. My wife ❤️ installed ae jacuzzi tub one year for me and other years has totally forgotten my birthday we're still married

We used Custom Windows about 5 years ago. Our lanai is larger and single pane windows cost about $8500. Very happy with them.
Beware - our friends used another company snd their windows cannot pivot to wash the outside. They have to use a chemical bottle attached to a hose to try to clean the outside through the screens. They were never told this when they got their sales pitch. Nit a good option!

Had mine done in August by Custom Windows. 10 x 20. Single pane $9,000. Very satisfied. Love it.

I understand its double for double pane vs single. I understand the.benefits of double vs single pane. Its about a 9 by 15, a typical size in the villages.

Got 3 estimates......from $6800-$9500. We have an Iris....not extended or anything. Single pane. We were told we really didn’t need the double pane because we weren’t going to turn it into additional living space, we just wanted to use it as a lanai. If we wanted to put the mini split dehumidifier/air conditioner out there it would be cheaper to just buy that as opposed to putting in double pane glass.

We just had our 10x15 done with Simonton double pane windows from First Choice, in the $10,000 range but well worth it.

Just had our done $13,995. Double pane, insulated ceiling and we didn't want glass all the way to the ground, so we have beadboard for bottom 24 inches. Glass door and light sensor for outside.

Just be sure to do your homework to determine the need for double VS single pane as there is a significant difference in pricing. It is a unique decision to your use and expectations.

We chose Elite Lifestyles.

It cost $30,000. They also insulated the ceiling above it and painted the entire interior of the room. The ceilings are 12 foot tall and the glass is oversized. We do not need any additional air conditioning. It is a little cool in there now for me, but the rest of the year even with sun setting in the west which is the main section, it is quite comfortable.

Looks fabulous Gracie. You know how to live!

we had an estimate to redo our lanai from push up vinyl windows to sliders and it came in at $15,000!! Just had the vinyl replaced - sold the house - then bought one with existing sliders that is heated and cooled. Good luck it is not cheap
