I'm expanding plans for the solarium, once I get it expanded to 24 or 32 ft length. I estimate each 8 ft to cost about $45. More than any previous design but will be much more permanent.
The first 16 ft covers the kitchen and bathroom windows, along with the electrical entry panel. (While meeting electrical code.) Because the dogs will have the run of most of that area, there's not much I can do with plants there. They would be certain to destroy anything I attempt to place in there where they can reach. So, once I get the solarium extended is when I will involve plants. Which will mean I have to build an interior fence to keep them out of that section. Which, of course, increases the cost.
For now, it's a benefit to use plastic sheeting as a cover and, while the outside sections will be set in concrete, the top section will hook over the roof but not be anchored to the roof permanently. This makes the entire structure still technically a temporary structure and not prone to building permits.
