Sunrooms in Savannah, GA by Eicher’s Pro Vinyl
Eicher's Pro Vinyl installs sunrooms in Savannah, GA with a 5-year workmanship warranty, employee-only installation crews, and a free in-home estimate. Nearly half of the roughly 132,000 housing units in Chatham County were built before 1984, which means a lot of Savannah homes are overdue for the kind of livable square footage a well-built sunroom adds. From the shaded lots near Forsyth Park to the marshview properties on Whitemarsh Island, our team has been helping Georgia homeowners make the most of the outdoors since 1998.
Can Savannah's Heat and Humidity Actually Be Managed in a Sunroom?
It is a fair concern. Savannah averages 2,690 cooling degree days per year, and summer high temperatures push close to 89 degrees. Combine that with 185 mosquito days annually and a coastal humidity that never really lets up, and a poorly built sunroom becomes an oven nobody uses by July.
The answer is the right glass and frame combination from the start. Our four-season sunrooms in Savannah, GA use low-E insulated glass that reflects radiant heat before it enters the room, keeping interior temperatures comfortable even on August afternoons. Vinyl frames add an extra layer of thermal break that aluminum simply cannot match.
- Low-E glass reduces solar heat gain without blocking your view of the yard or the Spanish moss overhead
- Insulated panels in the knee wall and roof maintain temperature without running the HVAC constantly
- 20/20 gnat-resistant screens are available on three-season configurations so sand gnats and mosquitoes stay outside where they belong
Three-season screened rooms are a popular choice for homeowners near Isle of Hope and Thunderbolt who want to enjoy the outdoor air without the insects. For year-round use, the fully insulated four-season build is the right call. We will walk you through both options at no charge during your in-home estimate.
What Savannah's Walk Score Tells Us About How Homeowners Use Their Outdoor Space
Savannah carries a walk score of 89, which puts it in the “Very Walkable” category. Residents already spend more time outside than people in most Georgia cities, walking to the Savannah Historic District, cutting through Forsyth Park, or grabbing coffee a few blocks away. A sunroom becomes a natural extension of that outdoor lifestyle, a place to land when the afternoon heat peaks or the heavy rain days roll in.
Savannah averages 7 heavy rain days per year. A screened or enclosed sunroom means those days do not have to push you fully inside. You can sit with the windows open, hear the rain on the canopy of live oaks, and stay completely dry.
Homeowners in walkable urban neighborhoods near the SCAD Museum of Art or the Cathedral Basilica district often have smaller yards. A sunroom in that context does double duty: it adds usable square footage to the home and creates a private outdoor-feeling retreat when the sidewalks are busy. With a median home value of $214,900 in Savannah, a quality sunroom addition is a practical investment in the home, not just a luxury.
Our custom sunrooms for Savannah homeowners are designed to fit the footprint and style of existing structures, whether that is a Craftsman bungalow in the Victorian District or a newer build in Garden City or Port Wentworth.

Termite Risk Is Heavy in Chatham County. Here Is Why That Matters for Your Sunroom.
Chatham County carries a “Very Heavy” termite risk rating, which is the highest classification used by pest and building professionals. Wood-framed sunroom additions are particularly vulnerable because they sit close to grade, often have exposed framing, and collect moisture from condensation and rain splash. Over time, that combination is an invitation for subterranean termites.
Eicher’s Pro Vinyl frames our sunrooms with vinyl and aluminum composite materials that termites cannot eat. There is no wood in the frame system that is exposed to the elements. Combined with proper drainage slope and sealed foundation connections, our builds are designed to hold up in the same coastal Georgia environment where wood structures routinely struggle.
- Vinyl framing does not rot, warp, or attract termites
- Sealed perimeter connections reduce moisture intrusion at the foundation
- Galvanized and coated hardware resists the salt-air corrosion common near the coast
For homeowners on Wilmington Island or Talahi Island, where salt air accelerates corrosion and the tree canopy keeps ground moisture high, these material choices are not optional extras. They are what makes a sunroom last 20 years instead of 10.
How Our Installation Process Works, and Why We Never Use Subcontractors
Every sunroom Eicher’s Pro Vinyl installs in the Savannah area is built by our own employees. We do not hand your project off to a subcontractor crew we do not manage day to day. That matters because the quality of a sunroom depends heavily on the details: how the roof is flashed, how the threshold is sealed, whether the framing is plumb before the glass goes in.
Our process starts with a free in-home estimate where we measure the space, discuss your goals, and go over material options. We handle permitting coordination for Chatham County projects. Installation is scheduled when materials arrive and weather cooperates, and we do not leave a job site until the work meets our own inspection standard.
Our 5-year workmanship warranty covers the installation itself, and manufacturer warranties cover the materials. We are also licensed and insured in Georgia, which protects you from liability during the build.
For homeowners in Dutch Island, Garden City, or anywhere else in the greater Savannah metro, our Brunswick showroom and Jesup showroom at 341 Cameron Rd are both available for in-person consultations if you want to see material samples before committing.
No money down, no pressure. Just answers and a free estimate.
Financing That Makes a Savannah Sunroom Addition Realistic This Year
With a median household income of $61,064 in Savannah, a sunroom addition is a real budget decision. Eicher’s Pro Vinyl offers 100% financing with no money down, so you do not have to wait until you have saved the full project cost. We offer 5-year, 7-year, and 10-year financing terms, plus a 1-year same-as-cash option for homeowners who prefer to pay it off quickly without interest.
We also offer military and senior citizen discounts. If you are a veteran living near the port or a retiree in one of Savannah’s older neighborhoods, ask about those savings when you call.
The homeownership rate in Chatham County sits at 56.5 percent. If you own your home and have been putting off an addition because of upfront cost, financing through Eicher’s makes it possible to move forward now and enjoy the space this season rather than next.
Frequently Asked Questions
What warranty comes with a sunroom installed by Eicher's Pro Vinyl in Savannah, GA?
Every sunroom we install in Savannah carries a 5-year workmanship warranty on the installation itself. Materials are covered by the manufacturer's warranty, which varies by product. Given Chatham County's Very Heavy termite risk and the coastal humidity here, we use vinyl framing and coated hardware specifically because those materials hold up under warranty conditions that wood-framed alternatives often cannot.
Does the warranty cover heat and humidity damage in a Savannah sunroom?
Our 5-year workmanship warranty covers how the sunroom is built. On the material side, low-E insulated glass and vinyl framing are rated for climates with high cooling degree days like Savannah's 2,690 annual CDDs. Manufacturer warranties on glass and framing typically cover seal failure and structural defects. We will explain exactly what each warranty covers during your free in-home estimate so there are no surprises.
Will my Savannah sunroom warranty still apply if we get a hurricane?
Savannah sits in a moderate hurricane exposure zone. Our sunrooms are installed to meet Georgia building codes, which account for wind loads in Chatham County. The 5-year workmanship warranty covers defects in how the structure was built. Storm damage from a declared weather event falls under homeowner's insurance rather than a workmanship warranty, which is the standard in the industry. We are happy to discuss construction details that improve wind resistance before you commit.
How long do the screens last in a three-season sunroom in Savannah, GA?
Savannah averages 185 mosquito days per year, so screen quality matters. We use 20/20 gnat-resistant screening, which is a finer mesh than standard window screen. That mesh is more durable in part because it does not flex and sag under the weight of debris the way standard screen does. Screen panels are also one of the easier components to replace if they are damaged, and that work is covered if the failure is installation-related within our 5-year warranty period.
Is the 5-year workmanship warranty transferable if I sell my Savannah home?
That is a common question from homeowners in Savannah where the median home value is around $214,900 and resale value matters. Contact us directly at (912) 588-0061 to discuss transferability on your specific project. Manufacturer warranties on materials like glass and vinyl framing often have their own transferability terms, which we will document clearly so you have that information on hand if you ever sell.
