When your pool cage becomes an eyesore, it’s time to get it restored. This week, a client from Bonita Springs hired us for an enclosure restoration package.

This is what Mr. Gill’s enclosure looked like. That’s why he was looking for a professional to restore his pool cage, which led him to our website. He wanted us to restore his pool cage and availed our Value Restoration Package. This includes repainting, rescreening, and replacing the fasteners with different materials which will lower the cost of the project.

After covering his pool and deck with plastic, we got started on site. It was quite difficult to work on this project because there was a ton of plants, making it hard to get ladders and walk boards. There was also a neighboring house that was 18 inches away.

Nevertheless, we made sure to get the job done. First, we replaced the fasteners with 4000hr ceramic-coated steel. For the paint, we used acrylic paint which is water-based and corrosion-resistant. Lastly, we replaced all the screens with Standard Phifer 18/14, which is a mesh that can withstand strong gusts of wind for three years. Our client is glad that we were able to complete the project in a week!
