How to Budget for a Pool Screen Enclosure in Florida Without Surprises

Planning a pool screen enclosure is one of the best investments you can make for your Florida home. It adds comfort, style, and protection to your outdoor space, but understanding the pool screen enclosure cost in Florida can help you plan wisely and avoid hidden surprises.

Whether you’re in Palm Bay or Melbourne, the total cost depends on your design, materials, and installation needs. At Lafferty Aluminum & Screening, we make the process transparent, from estimates and permitting to financing and HOA approvals.

Understanding Pool Screen Enclosure Cost in Florida

No two enclosures are the same. The cost of your project depends on your home’s size, layout, and aesthetic preferences.

Key factors that influence pricing include:

  • Size and shape: Larger or custom-shaped enclosures require more framing and screen material.
  • Roof design: Mansard, dome, and gable styles vary in complexity and price.
  • Screen type: Standard fiberglass mesh is affordable, while solar, privacy, or no-see-um screens cost slightly more.
  • Foundation and framing: Aluminum frames and reinforced footers ensure long-term durability.
  • Permitting and HOA approvals: We handle both, so you don’t have to.

On average, homeowners in Brevard County spend between $9,000 and $18,000 on a pool screen enclosure in Florida, depending on materials and customization.
