Boca Raton Lanai Sunrooms and Patios is a sunroom contractor serving Tamarac, FL, building vinyl sunrooms, screen enclosures, and patio rooms on the city's 1970s-1990s CBS homes. We have served Broward County homeowners since 2018 and handle every permit through the City of Tamarac building department ourselves.
Tamarac homeowners who want low-maintenance enclosures on their CBS homes get the most from vinyl framing - it holds up to the salt-tinged humid air better than bare metal and requires less upkeep over time. Our vinyl sunrooms service covers design, permitting through the City of Tamarac, and full installation with hurricane-rated connections throughout.
Tamarac's afternoon thunderstorms and mosquito pressure during the wet season make an open concrete patio nearly unusable for five or six months of the year. A fully framed patio enclosure solves both problems without sacrificing the feel of being outdoors.
Screen enclosures are the most popular first step for Tamarac homeowners who want usable outdoor space without the cost of a fully conditioned room. They stop insects and rain while keeping the air movement that makes South Florida evenings enjoyable.
A fully conditioned four season sunroom adds a climate-controlled room to a Tamarac home without the permit complexity of a full addition. It converts dead patio square footage into living space that works every month of the year.
Tamarac's 1970s and 1980s CBS homes were built with compact floor plans - adding a permitted sunroom off the back of the house is one of the most practical ways to gain living space on a property that cannot expand sideways.
Many screen rooms and patio enclosures in Tamarac predate Broward County's current hurricane wind-load code. A remodel replaces non-compliant hardware, adds proper hurricane strapping, and gives the structure a full service life reset.
Tamarac was built out almost entirely between the late 1960s and the early 1990s as one of Florida's first large planned communities. That concentrated construction window means the vast majority of homes in the city are of similar age - single-story concrete block homes built on flat lots with concrete slabs that are now 40 to 60 years old. Slabs of this age on low-lying land with a high water table show predictable wear: surface erosion, minor settling, and edge cracking from decades of Florida's wet season loading and unloading moisture into the subgrade. A new enclosure built on a compromised slab without a proper inspection will develop problems within a few years - frame movement, failed sealants, and water intrusion in exactly the places where a homeowner expects the room to stay dry.
The City of Tamarac runs its own municipal building department with its own permit review and inspection process, separate from Broward County's unincorporated permitting system. Contractors who are only familiar with county permits run into submission errors and revision cycles that add weeks to a project's start date. Beyond permitting, Tamarac's climate drives the need directly - the wet season brings heavy afternoon thunderstorms almost every day from May through October, and any outdoor patio that lacks a properly sealed and wind-rated enclosure is effectively off-limits for half the year. Salt-tinged air carried inland from the coast also accelerates corrosion on metal hardware, making material selection and connection detailing more important here than in inland markets.
Our crew works throughout Tamarac regularly, and we pull permits through the City of Tamarac building department for every project we build within city limits. Tamarac sits in the northwest part of Broward County, bordered by Lauderhill, Margate, Coconut Creek, and North Lauderdale. The city is accessed primarily via Commercial Boulevard running east-west and University Drive or State Road 7 running north-south along its eastern and western edges. Most of the residential streets we work on branch off these corridors into the planned-community neighborhoods that define Tamarac - uniform block layouts of single-story CBS homes with concrete driveways and rear patios that are often the original slabs from the 1970s or 1980s.
Tamarac is fully built out - there is essentially no undeveloped land left - so nearly all of our work here is on existing homes rather than new construction. That means slab assessment, drainage, and older-home anchoring considerations are part of every job estimate. The Florida Turnpike runs just east of the city, and between that and the internal road grid, we can reach most Tamarac addresses quickly. Whether a homeowner is near Colony West Golf Club on the west side or closer to the commercial strip along Commercial Boulevard, we know the neighborhoods and the permit process well. We also serve nearby Lauderhill to the south and Coconut Creek to the north.
Reach us by phone or through the estimate form on our contact page and we respond within one business day. We gather basic information about your property, existing slab, and goals before scheduling a site visit.
We visit your Tamarac home, measure the space, and inspect the slab for drainage and settlement issues common on the older concrete pads found throughout this city. You receive a written proposal with itemized materials, permit fees, and a project timeline - no commitment required.
We file the permit application with the City of Tamarac building department and handle all required plan submissions and review correspondence. Tamarac processes permits through its own building staff, and we know the submission requirements.
Construction begins once the permit is issued, with all required city inspections scheduled through to final permit closeout. You receive closed permit documentation at the end - keep it with your property records.
We respond within one business day, serve all of Tamarac, and handle every permit through the city's building department so you never have to chase paperwork.
(728) 777-1327Tamarac is a mid-sized city in northwest Broward County with a population of roughly 65,000 to 70,000 people spread across about 12 square miles. The city was developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s as one of Florida's early large planned communities, marketed originally to retirees and built out through the late 1980s. That origin gave the city a consistent character - block after block of single-story CBS homes on flat, modest lots, organized around a grid of surface roads and a network of drainage canals. The city of Tamarac is now fully built out, so most work here is renovation and improvement on existing homes rather than new construction.
The dominant housing type is a one-story concrete block home with an attached garage, a concrete or paver driveway, and a rear patio or screened area that often dates from the original construction. Colony West Golf Club on the west side of the city is one of the best-known landmarks, and Commercial Boulevard serves as the main commercial corridor that most residents use for daily errands. The city is bordered by Margate to the north and Lauderhill to the south - two cities we also serve regularly.
