Marco Island puts a pool cage in the most corrosive environment in Collier County. Salt from the Gulf on one side and the canals on the other, sun with nothing to soften it, and a housing stock that includes a great many original 1970s and 1980s enclosures. Irma in 2017 crossed the island directly. The cages that survived all of that deserve better than spot paint over rust, and restoration gives it to them.

ABC Pool Cage Painting restores aluminum pool cages across Marco Island, from the beachfront and Tigertail area to the canal neighborhoods and the estates around the golf courses. Restoration keeps the frame, corrects the damage, replaces all hardware with stainless steel, applies a coating suited to island exposure and renews the screen.

Salt Is the Whole Story

On Marco we prepare the entire frame, never just the visible problems. Oxidation is removed mechanically, corrosion at every fastener and cable anchor is neutralized and sealed, and every screw is replaced with stainless before primer. It is more labor than a mainland job and it is the reason the finish lasts. Afterward, a fresh-water rinse of the frame following windy weather is the most effective maintenance a homeowner can do.

Older Frames, Sound Structures

Many island cages date from the original build-out and are heavier gauge than modern replacements. When the beams are straight and the anchors hold, those frames restore extremely well. We inspect every member and connection and tell you plainly if a structure has damage that restoration cannot solve.

Included in the Project

Inspection

Beams, uprights, gutters, cables, anchors and doors are checked and photographed, with attention to any repairs made after Irma or Ian.

Hardware and corrections

Stainless fasteners throughout, new cable braces, replacement of cracked brackets and correction of bent members where feasible.

Coating

Adhesion primer and an exterior aluminum coating sprayed with the pool, deck, seawall area, house and plantings protected. White and bronze are the island norms; black is increasingly requested on renovated homes.

Screen

Aged panels rescreened after cure with no-see-um mesh on the walls, the practical choice on Marco, and standard mesh on the roof.

Island Logistics

We plan around bridge traffic, canal-lot access with seawalls and lifts to protect, and wind. Most single-family restorations take three to five working days on the island with a weather buffer. Seasonal owners can have the work completed before they arrive, with photos sent on completion.

Marco Island Restoration FAQ

How long will a restored finish last on Marco?

Coastal finishes have a shorter life than inland ones, but full preparation, stainless hardware and an aluminum-specific coating give many years of service, more with regular fresh-water rinsing.

Is my 1980s cage worth restoring?

Often yes. Older frames are frequently heavier than modern ones; if the structure is straight and anchored, restoration is far more economical than replacement.

Can you work while I am away for the summer?

Yes. We arrange access, complete the project and send photos and the invoice electronically.

Do you handle canal homes with docks and lifts?

Yes. Waterfront equipment is protected and the work is scheduled around wind.
