For our first project in Naples, we did a pool cage restoration and picture window conversion. Mr. and Ms. Trem noticed that their enclosure has rusty fasteners and faded paint. They found our company on Facebook and saw we do restoration and picture window conversion for existing pool cages. They availed our Lifetime Restoration Package which includes a repaint, re-screen, and fastener replacement using better materials that come with a longer warranty. For the Clearview conversion, they opted for our Silver Package, which we will re-engineer the entire front wall of their pool cage.

Here is what their old enclosure looked like. The paint was fading and the fasteners were rusting. Here’s how we made it look brand new again. We first covered the pool and deck with plastic, and remove the screens so we can easily paint and replace the fasteners. We used Nylotech, which is a durable fastener that comes with a 10-year warranty. After, we repainted the entire structure with Hi-solid Polyurethane with an electrostatic charge. Lastly, we rescreened all the panels with a Superscreen 14/16.

But before the restoration, we first had to re-engineer the front wall. We mostly prefabricate the frames in our shop and prepare the rest on-site. Once everything is installed, we continued with our restoration process. This picture window has a span size of 54′, and it took us two weeks to get their project done. Our client is glad that their pool cage looks brand new again, and that there are no more frames obstructing their view.
