Screen enclosures may be made of metal and robust screens, but their lifespan doesn’t exceed much more than 10 years. Like any other areas in the home, it needs some maintenance. And with Florida weather, your pool enclosure may start to rust, accumulate gunk and mold, and have holes on the screens.

Our client from Cape Coral had a pool cage that ticked all of the above. If your pool cage is older than 10 years, you may recognize these signs of wear and tear…

Some holes on the screen ceiling and sides, mold on some corners of the enclosure, fasteners that are rusted all the way through, and some damage on the aluminum due to heat and sun exposure over the years.

By the time we were done with our restoration process, the pool enclosure looked almost brand new. We repainted the enclosure with the same bronze color in a new shiny finish, rescreened with Superscreen, and replaced all fasteners with stainless Tapcons.

Our client can enjoy their pool area again without worrying about bugs entering through the holes on the screen, or getting disgusted by the mold on the enclosure.
