New Pool Cage Construction in Sarasota, FL

A new pool cage adds screened outdoor living space around a pool while keeping leaves, bugs, and debris out of the water. Building one from scratch means designing a structure that fits the pool's shape, the home's roofline, and Florida's wind requirements.

Two technicians on ladders install white aluminum gable-roof framing against a blue sky.

Designing around your pool and home

New enclosures are typically built in a gable shape, with a peaked roofline, or a flatter hip or shed style that follows the roof of the house. The right shape depends on the pool's footprint, the patio layout, and how the structure ties into the existing roofline. Aluminum beams form the frame, connected at footers anchored into the patio slab, with screen panels set into a spline channel that runs the length of each opening.

Engineering and permitting

New construction in Florida generally involves engineering review and a building permit before work starts, since enclosures have to meet local wind-load requirements. The specifics vary by county and by the size and design of the structure — ask us what applies to your property and we'll walk you through what's needed.
