It can be challenging to keep white enclosures looking like new because of rusty fasteners, orange stains, and green tints from the mold. So when Ms. Boyd from Fort Myers wanted her enclosure to look brand new again, we got the job done!
Here’s what her old enclosure looks like! Doesn’t it look like an eyesore? To make it look great again, she availed our Value Restoration Package, which includes a repaint, re-screen, and fastener replacement using different materials to lower the project cost.
Before we started on the pool cage, we first covered the pool, deck, and adjoining screen enclosure with plastic to prevent debris and paint drops on them. Our client lives in a coach house or duplex, that’s why we had to protect neighboring enclosures – as seen in the photo.
Once everything was settled, we started on the restoration. We replaced the rusty fasteners with 4000hr ceramic-coated steel and then repainted the structure with white acrylic paint, which is water-based and corrosion-resistant. Our client was thinking of repainting it to bronze but it was against the homeowners association policy, so we went for white again. Lastly, we installed Standard Phifer 18/14 throughout the cage. This mesh can withstand strong gusts of winds for three years, but similar to all screens, it will eventually weaken with age. We completed this project in less than a week. Ms. Boyd will be able to enjoy this enclosure for a long time!
