We recently installed a new enclosure for a client in Estero. Mr. and Ms. Schmidt wanted to replace their old enclosure because it has become an eyesore, so they called us to get the job done. 

Before we started working on-site, we first had to prepare the permits and work on the engineering and site plans. After doing more than a hundred pool enclosure projects, we can efficiently get this process done. Our client can just sit back and not worry about the details because we have a dedicated project manager handling these matters. They also didn’t wait that long since we can get permits faster than anyone else.

After obtaining the permits, we started with the screen enclosure replacement. We removed the existing enclosure and brought parts of the new structure that was prefabricated in our facility. For the rest of the parts, we used site-specific laser cut and leveling. The new structure was applied with 2604 Powder Coat Finish, which helps it withstand the harsh Florida sun and other elements.

We used Blue-Tap Fasteners Nylotec for metal to metal connections, which comes with a 10-year warranty, and Tapcons Tru-stainless lifetime warranty with Protect System. This will ensure the longevity and structural integrity of the new enclosure. For the screens, we used Super Screen 14/17, which also comes with a 10-year warranty. This is a durable mesh that can be installed on large openings while withstanding strong gusts of wind. It’s suitable for this new enclosure since we used a Clearview Configuration of members. Our client will now be able to enjoy their beautiful view with no frames obstructing it. We also installed a 7″ supergutter and two doors. For the roof design, it’s called half mansard. 

Doesn’t this new enclosure look amazing? It took us less than two weeks to complete this project. Our client is happy with their brand new pool enclosure and that there are no more frames obstructing the view.
