Fort Myers Beach is rebuilding, and the pool cages that survived Ian or went up since are living in the saltiest air in Lee County. On Estero Island there is no such thing as a lightly exposed enclosure; every frame gets Gulf wind on one side and bay humidity on the other. Painting a cage here is a coastal job from the first wash to the last coat.

ABC Pool Cage Painting repaints aluminum pool enclosures across Fort Myers Beach, from the north end near the Matanzas Pass bridge to the south end toward Lovers Key, and on the San Carlos Island side. The service uses full preparation, stainless hardware and a coating system chosen for salt exposure.

Painting Survivors and New Frames Alike

Cages that came through the storm were often patched quickly and show it: mismatched screws already rusting, bars straightened by hand, screen stretched over damage. Repainting begins with correcting those repairs and standardizing the hardware. Newer frames installed during the rebuild usually carry a factory finish that will still benefit, in a few years, from the same preparation-first approach when the salt begins to show.

Coastal Preparation

• Chemical wash to remove salt residue, mildew and chalk from every surface.
• Mechanical oxidation removal across the entire frame, not just the visible problem areas.
• Rust neutralized and sealed at every fastener, cable anchor and door frame; stainless steel screws throughout.
• Adhesion primer followed by an exterior aluminum coating applied by sprayer with the pool, deck, elevated structure and vegetation protected.

Elevated Homes and Island Access

Many homes on the island are raised, and their cages sit on elevated decks. Lifts or scaffolding are arranged before the first day. We plan around bridge traffic, seasonal crowds and wind, and we protect docks and lifts on the bay-side lots.

Keeping the Finish

A restored finish on Fort Myers Beach lasts longer with a simple habit: rinse the frame with fresh water after windy weather. It is the single most effective maintenance step on the island and it costs nothing.
