Lanai Enclosures in Sarasota, FL

From Screen to Full Glass Room

How far you enclose depends on what you want from the space. A screen enclosure keeps bugs and leaves out while the breeze runs through, which suits our comfortable months. Glass turns the lanai into a conditioned room you can use in July or during a January cold snap. Plenty of Sarasota owners split the difference, and we map out where each makes sense for your home and budget.

Screen Built for Coastal Bugs and Wind

Standard screen won't stop the no-see-ums that plague homes near the water, and it doesn't fare well in a blow. We can spec a tighter mesh that actually keeps the tiny stuff out and heavier screen systems rated for higher winds, so the enclosure works on a still evening and holds through a summer squall. Out toward the keys, especially, that upgrade is worth talking about.

Storm Season and Pool Cages

Sarasota's storms are rough on screen enclosures and pool cages, and a good share of our work is rebuilding or reinforcing them after a season takes its toll. We frame and anchor to current local codes, repair what a storm has loosened, and can walk through impact-rated options where your exposure warrants it. The goal is an enclosure you trust, not one you brace for every June.

More Living Space, More Value

An enclosed lanai does more than keep the mosquitoes out. A glass enclosure adds usable, weatherproof square footage that lives like part of the house, and a well-built enclosure of any kind reads as a genuine asset to future buyers in a market that prizes outdoor living. It's comfort now and value later, built to a standard you won't be redoing in a few years.

Let's turn your lanai into a room you use every day, starting with a free consultation.
