When a pool cage starts looking like an eyesore, it’s time to get it restored. That’s why a client from Fort Myers hired us for an enclosure restoration project.

Mr. and Ms. Baldwin noticed that their pool enclosure had rusty fasteners, faded paint, and old screens. After seeing our enclosure restoration projects online, they hired us to make their pool cage look brand new again. They availed our Value Restoration Package, which includes re-screening, replacing the fasteners, and repainting the entire enclosure using different materials to lower the cost of the project.

Here is what their old pool cage looked like. This is a white enclosure but it doesn’t even look the same color anymore. How did we make it look new again?

Before we start, we first covered the pool and deck area with plastic to prevent getting debris or paint on it. Then we remove the screens so we can paint the frames and replace the fasteners. Check out the rusty fasteners in the photo above; we replaced those with 4000hr ceramic-coated steel.

Next, our client wanted to change the color of their enclosure from white to bronze. We used Bronze Sherwin Williams DTM Tough Trim, making the old enclosure look new. Now, it doesn’t have moldy frames or faded paint.

Lastly, we installed the Standard Phifer 18/14 throughout the cage. All screens are durable when it’s newly installed, but this mesh can withstand thunderstorm force winds for 3 years. It will also eventually weaken with age, but it will only be easily tearable from a regular storm after 7 years.

Our efficient crew completed this project in a week. Mr. and Ms. Baldwin are happy that their pool cage looks brand new again. They won’t have to look at rusty fasteners, moldy frames, old screens, and faded paint anymore.
