Amanda Alexander, one of our team members at Legacy Exteriors, recently appeared on WIBA 101.5 FM’s program, Behind the Studs, to talk about LifeRooms, three-season, and four-season rooms. During the show, Amanda discussed the following topics, which she’s expanded upon here to give you a better understanding of each type of room addition … What’s the difference between a three- and four-season room?
