Serving Wesley Chapel, FL and surrounding areas. (813) 454-0103
Wesley Chapel's mosquitoes and no-see-ums are active almost year-round. A screened enclosure turns your back porch into a space you actually want to use - even on summer evenings.
Screened-in porches in Wesley Chapel typically cost between $5,000 and $20,000 or more, framed in aluminum with pest-blocking mesh, and most projects finish construction in one to two weeks once the Pasco County permit is in hand.
If your home already has a concrete slab or a covered lanai - which is common in Wesley Chapel subdivisions like Epperson and Seven Oaks - the cost is often lower because the foundation is already there. Newer homes in this area were frequently built with a plain patio slab that was never screened, making a screen enclosure one of the most practical upgrades available.
Many homeowners pair a screened enclosure with a covered deck or patio cover to get both shade and bug protection in one outdoor room.
If your back porch sits empty from late spring through fall because mosquitoes and no-see-ums make it miserable, that is the clearest sign a screened enclosure would change how you live in your home. Wesley Chapel's bug season is long and intense. Most homeowners who add a screen porch say they use it far more than they expected.
Many Wesley Chapel homes were built with a concrete slab or a covered lanai that was never screened in. If that space sits empty because it is too buggy or too exposed, adding a screen enclosure is often the most cost-effective way to turn it into a room you actually want to spend time in.
If you are constantly moving cushions inside before a storm or replacing furniture that has been soaked and sun-damaged, an enclosed space would protect your investment. Wesley Chapel's daily summer storms arrive fast and drop a lot of rain - a screened enclosure with a solid roof keeps your outdoor furniture dry.
Screened outdoor living space is one of the features Florida buyers specifically look for, and Wesley Chapel's real estate market is competitive enough that a well-built enclosure can help your home stand out. Adding a screened porch now means you enjoy it and recoup a portion of the cost when you sell.
We build screened enclosures ranging from a simple screen-on-slab project to a full elevated screened deck built from scratch. Every enclosure uses aluminum framing, which holds up in Florida humidity without rusting or rotting the way wood can. We offer standard fiberglass mesh as well as finer no-see-um mesh for homeowners who deal with tiny insects - your choice depending on how you plan to use the space.
For homeowners who want more than just bug protection, we also install covered deck and patio cover structures that add a solid roof above the screened space. If you are starting from bare ground, a pergola installation can anchor the outdoor room before screening is added. Every project is permitted through Pasco County.
Suits homeowners with an existing concrete patio who want the fastest, most affordable path to a bug-free outdoor space.
Suits homeowners who need a raised platform built first, then screened - ideal for backyards without an existing slab.
Suits homeowners who want both a solid roof and full screening, creating a fully enclosed outdoor room usable in rain.
Wesley Chapel sits in a part of Florida where mosquitoes, no-see-ums, and love bugs are active for most of the year - not just a few summer months. That makes a screened enclosure a practical necessity for anyone who wants to actually use their outdoor space. Florida's building code sets wind load requirements that apply specifically to screen enclosures, and those requirements exist because Wesley Chapel's afternoon storms during June through September are intense. A structure built to those standards holds up season after season. Pasco County requires a building permit for any screened enclosure, and a contractor who skips that step is setting you up for problems when you sell or file an insurance claim.
We work throughout the Wesley Chapel area, including in Land O' Lakes and Lutz. Many homes across these communities were built with plain concrete slabs or basic covered lanais that were never screened - and that is exactly the kind of project we handle most often. If your neighborhood has an HOA, we are familiar with the architectural review process and can help you understand what documentation is needed before we pull the Pasco County permit.
Call or submit the form and we will respond within one business day. We will visit your home to measure the space, look at the existing slab or structure, and talk through your options - no cost, no obligation.
After the site visit, you will receive a written estimate that clearly lists what is included, what materials will be used, and the total cost. If your neighborhood has an HOA, we will walk you through what the architectural review requires before you sign anything.
Once you approve the scope and sign a contract, we submit the permit application to Pasco County on your behalf. You do not touch the paperwork. Permit review typically takes one to three weeks.
Active construction runs one to two weeks for most enclosures. When framing and screening are complete, a Pasco County inspector signs off before the job is done. We walk you through the finished space and answer any questions.
No obligation. We will visit your Wesley Chapel home, measure the space, and give you a written estimate - usually within one business day of your call.
(813) 454-0103We pull every Pasco County permit in-house and schedule the final inspection before we call any job complete. That means you have documented proof the structure was built correctly - which protects you when you sell or file an insurance claim.
A large share of Wesley Chapel's neighborhoods require HOA architectural review before exterior work begins. We are familiar with the requirements in communities throughout the area and walk you through the submission process so there are no mid-project surprises.
Our screen enclosures are framed and fastened to meet Florida's wind resistance requirements - not the national minimum. That distinction matters in a county that sees regular tropical weather and intense afternoon storms every summer.
We have been working in Wesley Chapel and the surrounding communities since the area was still adding new subdivisions. That local history means we know what these homes are built with and what the inspectors here look for.
Every screened enclosure we build is permitted, inspected, and built to last through Florida's weather. That combination is what makes the difference between a screen porch that holds up and one that needs repairs within a season.
