Sunroom Repairs & Maintenance in Winnipeg
Our philosophy is that a three-season sunroom should be a source of enjoyment and everyone’s favourite place to relax and enjoy family time at home. When it starts leaking, shifting, or becoming difficult to use, most homeowners stop using it altogether. A small draft turns into a cold floor. A sticking door becomes a struggle nobody enjoys, and soon, the intended extension of your living space transforms into a storage room you merely pass by.
SunCo has been repairing and restoring sunrooms across Winnipeg and surrounding communities for more than 26 years. Regardless who built the original structure, the focus is the same every time: find what is failing, fix it properly, and make the space perform up to its intended design and that is nothing less than the favourite room in the house for 9–10 months a year.
When the Foundation Shifts, Everything Else Follows
Most sunroom problems do not start at the walls or the roof. They start below the floor. Winnipeg’s freeze-thaw cycles and shifting soil put constant stress on footings and supports. Over time, the sunroom settles unevenly, and that movement works its way up. Floors feel sloped. Doors stop lining up. Gaps appear where there used to be tight seals.
Fixing the foundation is not cosmetic work. It is essential for everything else to function properly. SunCo assesses how the structure is sitting, corrects the foundation and connection points to the house where they have failed, and brings the sunroom back up to level so the walls, windows, and doors operate the way they should.
Glass, Screens, and Doors That No Longer Work
Wall problems are usually what homeowners notice first: cracked glass, torn screens, and moving doors and windows that jam or require force to move. These are rarely isolated issues. They are often symptoms of a shifting structure or worn-out components that deteriorated after years of exposure to our Manitoba intense climate.
SunCo repairs and replaces damaged glass panels, installs new screens, and restores moving parts so they operate with ease. The goal is to bring the whole wall system back to a condition where the room is a pleasure to use. It’s just like taking your sunroom to the spa for a rejuvenation treatment.
Roof Repairs Including Hail Damage Claims
A failing roof is often what finally makes a sunroom unusable. Signs such as leaks, water stains, and visible separation all point to a compromised roof system, often related to weather damage that was not immediately apparent.
Hail is a common cause of sunroom roof damage in Manitoba, and you may be eligible to make an insurance claim to cover the cost of repairs or replacement.
Another issue that sometimes occurs is snow overload. As our weather patterns change, we are more often subject to intense weather events, and those events may exceed the original design load of the structure, or the initial installation may not have been done correctly.
SunCo repairs and replaces sunroom roofs using materials suited to local conditions. If hail damage is involved, we can walk you through what the claim process typically looks like so you know what to expect before any work begins.
Get Your Sunroom Back
When a sunroom is in good working order, it brings a completely new dimension to family life.
The repairs are usually more straightforward than homeowners expect, and the difference in how the space feels afterward is significant.
If your sunroom has been unused or has had issues for a while, it’s worth having someone check it out.

With the help of our SunCo team, we were able to figure out a perfect landing that transitions from the sunroom into the house. They were also very helpful in explaining the prep work that is involved before the actual addition starts (moving any hydro and electrical lines, getting permits, digging the piles, etc.) Once everything was in place, SunCo sent their team to erect the building. It was all up within a few days. The crew was very friendly and dedicated to their trade. The only issue that we have, which is completely out of SunCo’s realm, is that the winter elements along with the Windsor Park gumbo causes some windows to shift but this issue disappears once Spring arrives.
This addition to our home was the best renovation project that we’ve ever had done. We use it every day, from March to October. As soon as the Sun is capable of warming up this space, we’re in there. Sometimes we help the Sun out by throwing a small heater in there and its top notch! With our growing family, the sunroom is a perfect additional area for gatherings because there’s nothing better than enjoying a nature view while visiting with family and fiends. Weather permitting, our 7 granddaughters love to eat in the sunroom; independently from the adults. My husband has a side job which necessitates clients to drop off or pick up documents, and let me say, it is unbelievable as to how many people have commented on our sunroom. We have recommended SunCo over and over again. If anyone is contemplating on getting a sunroom, we would not hesitate to proceed with Backyard Paradise by SunCo.
Update: After posting this review, Roger, a company sales rep dropped in and gave us some very good recommendations on how to address the shifting issue. Great company! Thx.
We use it as our living room and our view of the nature around us is our T.V.
It is our sanctuary where we can unwind at the end of the day and restore peace to our lives.
When our family is over and our young grandchildren come, we fill it with toys and joy is had by all!
We would highly recommend Backyard Paradise to everyone.
We absolutely love our sunroom!!
We were very happy with the materials and workmanship, so we called them back in 2020 to build our replacement stairs and railing.
We use the sunroom 8 months out of the year. We eat, entertain, and relax in the sunroom. Our favourite is watching the humming birds that come to the plants right up to the door.
The sunroom is my favorite part of the house says our pet dove.
We love being outside without bugs bothering us.
We highly recommend the backyard Paradise by SunCo to build yours.
Happy anniversary.
The professionalism and service we received was top notch.
With this addition to our house, it has added such a nice space to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning and have company over at night to enjoy a drink and snacks while being protected by the mosquitoes but still feeling like we are outside.
This was a great experience from beginning to end and would highly recommend SunCo for your sunroom needs.
