Are you looking to take your outdoor structure to the next level? Installing a modern screen enclosure will help you surround your pool for extra shelter– but stylishly.

There are countless reasons why an enclosure makes for a worthwhile addition to an outdoor space. According to SPATA (The Swimming Pool and Allied Trade Association), enclosing the swimming pool allows homeowners to enjoy it for more of the year. You are also more likely to use it earlier and later in the day. We also can't stress the savings brought by a pool enclosure in your usual heating and cleaning costs. 

Modern Screen Enclosure Installation Process

For this Nokomis, FL project, we had to remove the existing enclosure and build a new, modern enclosure with little to no changes to the footprint.

The roof type chosen for this project is a half-mansard roof, which updated the appearance to have a modern, sleek look. This style also effectively makes the enclosure appear more open and expansive.

For projects of this scope, we had to sort out the engineering and permits required. Other project highlights included the installation of a 7" Super Gutter in bronze and 2 Clear View doors (measuring 36" x 80").

The GCA Difference

Here's what makes this screen enclosure project unique:

  • A dedicated project manager
  • Site-specific laser cut and leveling
  • Professional prefabrication in facility
  • Clearview configuration of members
  • 2604 powder coat finish
  • Fasteners: Tapcons tru stainless (lifetime warranty)
  • Super screen tiny insect mesh (10 years warranty)

Always keep in mind that not all screens are created equal. Some insects bite, while others sting. Many of these pests carry diseases and can be annoying if you want to relax by the pool at the end of a long day.

So if you want to protect yourself from pesky bugs and insects, it's crucial to use the right insect screen like these homeowners from Nokomis, FL. We used Super Screen Tiny Insect Mesh for this project, which came with a generous 10-year warranty. It is a high-quality, durable material to consider for your screen enclosure project.
