For this project, we entirely took down the screens from the old enclosure and disposed of it. Then, we did a full re-screening and restoration of the pool enclosure for our client from Bonita Springs.

Some of the things that we specifically did for the restoration are replacing the rusty fasteners and the gutter. On top of that, they made a very wise choice of having their screen enclosure converted into a picture window.

First of all, re-screening an enclosure is somehow inevitable for pool owners especially if the screens they originally used are low to mid-grade screen mesh which only last for a couple of years. Accordingly, with a little wear and tear, your enclosure will surely need frequent repair and restoration. 


Apart from the re-screening, an awesome feature that we did for this project is convert all sides of the enclosure to a clear view. We re-configured the screen panels for the 12 feet high front wall, installed a Half Mansard roof type, and added two clear view 36” x 80” doors. These elevated the seamless appeal of the picture window enclosure. In addition, the fact that the whole structure is painted in bronze helped maintain the clear view aesthetic.

Moreover, to ensure the structural integrity, we used top-shelf materials for the pool enclosure. Our materials also have warranties like the tapcons tru-stainless, which has a lifetime warranty and the super screen 14/7 which has a 10-year warranty. Moreover, our package also includes site specific laser cut and leveling professional prefabrication to perfect every detail of the restoration.

Look at how beautifully the picture window conversion of this pool enclosure turned out. If you want to have yours made, don’t hesitate to give us a call.
