Three Season Sunroom Remodeling in Connecticut: Wall Reconstruction, Board and Batten Siding and Shiplap

Three Season Sunroom Remodeling That Starts With the Structure

Many Connecticut homes have a three season room that has served the family well for years but is starting to show its age. This three season sunroom remodeling project began with a room that already had windows and screens. The lower walls, however, needed attention, along with one of the support posts. Fiderio & Sons rebuilt the lower portion of all three walls, replaced the post, and finished the room with new siding outside and shiplap inside.

The result is a sunroom renovation that keeps the existing window openings while giving the room a stronger, cleaner, and more finished look.

The Project: Sunroom Reconstruction From the Floor Up

Partial wall reconstruction. Our team rebuilt the lower portions of all three walls, working from the existing floor framing up to the existing window openings.

Structural support. One 4x4 support post was removed and replaced. Temporary roof supports were used as needed to keep the structure safe and stable while the work was completed.

Wall framing. The rebuilt walls use new 2x6 framing with studs spaced 16 inches on center.

Sheathing and weather protection. The new framing was covered with 1/2 inch CDX plywood sheathing and Tyvek or an equivalent house wrap to help protect the walls from moisture.

Exterior siding. Outside, the lower walls received CertainTeed Board & Batten S8 white vinyl siding with matching J channels, corner posts, and trim beneath the windows. Learn more about our siding services.

Interior shiplap. Inside, our crew removed the existing wood siding on the house wall next to the sliding patio door and installed white primed 7 1/4 inch pine shiplap.

Cleanup. Construction debris was removed and the work area was cleaned at the end of the project.

How Fiderio & Sons Handled the Sunroom Renovation

A three season room renovation that involves walls and a support post needs careful planning. Replacing a support post means the roof load has to be managed during the work, which is why temporary supports were used as needed. Rebuilding the lower walls up to the existing window openings allowed the room to keep its windows while the structure below was renewed.

Our full service design build approach means one dedicated team handles planning, permits, scheduling, and production.

What to Know Before Remodeling a Three Season Room

Look at the structure first. Soft spots, worn lower walls, or a tired support post are signs the room may need reconstruction, not just cosmetic updates.

Understand what affects the investment. Cost depends on how much of the wall needs rebuilding, whether structural parts like posts need replacement, and your siding and interior finish selections.

Timeline factors. Scope, conditions found once walls are opened, material availability, and weather all influence timing. Our team will walk through expected timing during your consultation.

Make selections with guidance. Our Design Center and Showroom in Meriden is open by appointment. Our article on choosing siding color and style may also help.

Financing is available. Fiderio & Sons offers financing options to help make projects more manageable.
