A Sioux Falls summer is worth more time outside than the calendar gives you. Spring comes late, the wind rarely quits, and by late October you're back indoors. That's the case for a sunroom or three-season porch: it stretches the usable part of the year without building full conditioned space. Sioux Falls is the largest city in South Dakota, and its housing runs the full range, from newer builds to mid-century homes in the central neighborhoods, and most of those houses have a back wall or patio that could be working harder.

How much harder depends entirely on how many months you want out of it. A screened porch, a three-season room, and a space you will actually sit in during January are three different builds sitting on three different foundations. That decision comes before framing, because it changes what goes in the ground.

Porch, patio, or sunroom: picking the right amount of enclosure

Not every backyard needs glass walls. The right answer sits somewhere on a spectrum: an open patio, a covered porch that keeps rain and sun off, a screened three-season porch, or a fully framed sunroom you can use into November. Each step up adds structure, and cost, so the walkthrough matters. Jace looks at how your house is framed, which direction the space faces, and how you actually want to use it, then quotes the version that fits in writing.

Framed for snow load, anchored against prairie wind

A sunroom is a roof structure first and a sitting room second. In South Dakota that roof has to carry real snow, and the posts under it need footings below the frost line or the room heaves with each freeze-thaw cycle. Prairie wind loads the glazing and the connections, so fastening schedules and anchoring matter as much as the view. Tying into an existing house, especially an older one in Sioux Falls's central neighborhoods, means checking what the original framing can take before adding load. Hols & Co designs to those conditions and handles the City of Sioux Falls building permit as part of the project.

Hols and Co. replaced our deck with a covered and screened in deck. We are extremely pleased with the workmanship and attention to detail they put into the deck. They were a pleasure to work with and would definitely recommend them for your home construction needs. Myron H.

Highly recommend Hols & Co. if you are looking for someone to build your deck. The whole team was excellent to work with. They were professional, respectful and communicative. They were very efficient when they were on site and kept out property clean while they worked. Solid craftmanship and the finished product is exactly what we were envisioning. We would definitely hire this crew again for future projects.

The team was great. The quality of work is fantastic. I saw their ad on social media and took a chance and contacted them. So glad I did! Wanted my back deck replaced and they did a beautiful job. Even worked Saturday because the wood for the deck didn't show up on time. Looking forward to having them back for my next project!

FAQ

Fair questions, straight answers.

Do I need a permit to build a sunroom in Sioux Falls?

Yes. A sunroom or covered porch addition inside city limits is permitted through the City of Sioux Falls, and the application needs drawings that show footings, framing, and how the room ties into the house. Hols & Co produces the plans and pulls the permit as part of the job. If the project also touches sidewalk or driveway in the city right-of-way, that work requires the city's right-of-way contractor approval, which Hols & Co holds.

Can you add a sunroom or three-season porch to an older Sioux Falls home?

Yes. Central Sioux Falls has a large stock of mid-century and older homes, and those houses need a closer structural look before an addition goes on: the existing wall framing, the condition of the foundation, and where new footings can bear below the frost line. Jace Jones holds a Construction Management degree and drafts the plans in-house, so the structural questions get answered before the quote. Every project starts with an in-person walkthrough and a written estimate.
