Screen Enclosure for Melbourne Homeowners

Melbourne homeowners looking for screen enclosure have one local choice with ELSO Contracting. We are a licensed, insured Brevard County remodeling contractor serving the heart of Brevard County, with crews working Eau Gallie, West Melbourne, Melbourne Village, and the Beaches every week. This page covers what makes screen enclosure in Melbourne different from other parts of Florida, what it typically costs, what permits and code requirements apply, and how we deliver projects with transparent pricing and no surprises.

Screen Enclosures Built for Melbourne Weather

Melbourne screen enclosures need to handle hurricane wind loads, daily afternoon thunderstorms, and salt-laden coastal air for properties near downtown Melbourne. We build to Brevard County wind-load requirements with #20 or #40 mesh depending on exposure, hurricane-rated aluminum frames with stainless fasteners, and proper anchoring to existing concrete pads. Pool cage replacements after hurricane damage are also a regular project.

Pool Cage vs. Lanai vs. Patio Screen

Melbourne homeowners ask us about three enclosure types: pool cages (mansard or hip roof aluminum frames covering pools), lanais (smaller covered patios with screens added), and patio screens (just a screen wall on an existing concrete patio). Each has different code requirements, lead times, and price points. The pool cage market in Melbourne after Hurricane Ian was particularly busy and we still work through some carryover demand.
