A Lakewood Ranch pool cage is meant to disappear into the view of the lake or the preserve. When the screen has gone grey, sagged on the roof or torn at the door, the enclosure stops disappearing and starts drawing attention, and the association may eventually draw attention to it as well. ABC Pool Cage Painting rescreens enclosures throughout Lakewood Ranch and keeps them to the community standard.

Standards, Approvals and Screen Color

Charcoal fiberglass is the accepted standard across the villages and needs no approval to replace. Where homeowners want privacy screen on a side wall or solar screen on a west wall, some committees ask to see a sample; we provide the product sheet so the request is straightforward. Mixed mesh, such as no-see-um on the lower walls and standard on the roof, reads as uniform from the outside and is rarely an issue.

Full Rescreen or Repair

Enclosures installed in the same building years across Lakewood Ranch tend to hit end-of-life for their screen at the same time. If your panels tear easily, have faded unevenly, or the roof panels pool water after every rain, a complete rescreen is the better value and gives a uniform result. For a recent cage with one damaged panel, a repair is all you need and all we will recommend.

Mesh Options for Lake and Preserve Lots

• Standard 18/14 charcoal for roofs and most walls, with the best airflow and visibility.
• 20/20 no-see-um on the lower and lake-facing walls where midges gather at dusk.
• Pet screen along the bottom panels and around the door for households with dogs.
• Solar screen for west walls that take late sun off the water.

Roof Panels and Reclaimed-Water Deposits

Reclaimed water used for irrigation in much of Lakewood Ranch leaves white mineral spotting on screen and frame. During a rescreen we clean the channels and frame edges before installing new mesh, and we point out heads that are hitting the cage so they can be adjusted. Roof panels get correctly sized spline and full tension so they shed water instead of holding it.

Hardware and Doors

Door closers, hinges, latches and chair-rail caps are replaced as needed during the same visit. Rusting screws are changed for stainless. If the frame finish itself has chalked, the Lakewood Ranch restoration service combines rescreening with a full recoat so you are not putting new screen onto a frame that needs paint.

Working Within the Community

We confirm gate access and contractor hours with your village before the visit, protect pavers and pool finishes, and haul away old screen. When several neighbors want work done the same season, grouping the visits keeps costs down and crew time on your street short.

Lakewood Ranch Rescreening FAQ

Does new screen need committee approval?

Standard charcoal replacement does not. Privacy or solar screen may; we supply the product information if it does.

Can you convert the lake-facing wall to a picture-window layout?

Yes. That is a frame modification and is quoted separately, but it is often combined with a rescreen.

How long does the job take?

Most Lakewood Ranch enclosures are rescreened in one working day.

Do you serve Waterside and the newer villages?

Yes, all of Lakewood Ranch including Waterside, Lakewood National, Esplanade and Del Webb.
