At Lafferty Aluminum & Screening, we help Florida homeowners create outdoor spaces that are beautiful, durable, and made for year-round living. Serving Brevard and Indian River Counties, our team delivers expert craftsmanship on every project, from pool enclosures to hurricane protection.
There's a reason so many homeowners choose to live along Florida's barrier islands. From ocean sunrises in Melbourne Beach to waterfront neighborhoods in Satellite Beach and the laid-back lifestyle of Cocoa Beach, outdoor living is part of everyday life.
But coastal living also comes with challenges. Salt air, intense sunlight, seasonal storms, humidity, insects, and afternoon rain can make it difficult to fully enjoy your patio or lanai.
At Lafferty Aluminum & Screening, we help homeowners create outdoor living spaces that are comfortable, functional, and designed specifically for Florida's coastal environment. Whether you're considering a traditional Florida room, a screen enclosure, a composite room, or another type of patio enclosure, our team will help you choose the solution that best fits your home and how you plan to use it.
We proudly serve homeowners throughout Satellite Beach, Indian Harbour Beach, Indialantic, Melbourne Beach, Cocoa Beach, Cape Canaveral, South Patrick Shores, Indian River Shores, Wabasso Beach, Orchid, Aquarina, and surrounding beachside communities.
A Florida room is an enclosed outdoor living area that creates additional usable space while allowing homeowners to enjoy natural light and outdoor views.
Unlike a traditional room addition, a Florida room is designed to create a comfortable transition between your home's interior and the outdoors.
Depending on your goals, your Florida room may include:
Every project is custom designed to match your home's architecture and your lifestyle.
One of the most common questions we receive is:
"What's the difference between a Florida room and everything else?"
The answer depends on how you want to use the space.
A screen enclosure provides protection from mosquitoes, leaves, and debris while maintaining maximum airflow.
Best for homeowners who:
A lanai is typically a covered outdoor area attached to your home.
Enclosing a lanai with custom screening creates a comfortable outdoor room while preserving the open-air feeling that many Florida homeowners enjoy.
Ideal for:
Composite rooms offer one of the biggest upgrades in comfort.
These rooms feature insulated aluminum roof panels that help reduce heat transfer, making the space noticeably cooler during Florida summers.
Many homeowners choose composite rooms when they want:
Adding acrylic or vinyl windows allows homeowners to enjoy their outdoor room during more weather conditions.
These windows help reduce wind and rain while still allowing plenty of natural light.
Many homeowners choose this option when they want greater flexibility without building a fully conditioned room addition.
A pool enclosure serves a different purpose than a Florida room.
Its primary function is to protect the swimming pool from insects and debris while maintaining an open outdoor environment.
Many homeowners combine a pool enclosure with an adjacent covered lanai to create one seamless outdoor living area.
Beachside properties face conditions that many inland homes never experience.
Salt carried in the ocean air, stronger coastal winds, increased UV exposure, and year-round humidity all influence how outdoor living structures should be designed.
That's why every project begins with evaluating your property—not selecting a standard package.
We consider:
The result is a Florida room that's designed specifically for your property and the way you use your outdoor space.
One misconception we often hear is that every homeowner needs the same type of enclosure.
In reality, the best solution depends on how you live.
If you enjoy the breeze and spend most evenings outdoors, a screened lanai may be perfect.
If you're looking for additional shade and lower temperatures, a composite room with an insulated roof may make much more sense.
If your goal is maximizing year-round use while maintaining natural light, acrylic or vinyl windows could be the better option.
Rather than steering every customer toward one product, we focus on understanding how you want to use the space first. That allows us to recommend the outdoor living solution that best fits your home, your lifestyle, and your budget.
We've helped thousands of homeowners throughout Brevard and Indian River County improve the way they enjoy their outdoor spaces.
Homeowners choose our team because we provide:
Our goal isn't simply building another enclosure—it's helping homeowners create an outdoor space they'll enjoy for years.
We proudly install Florida rooms and outdoor living spaces in:
If your home is located along Florida's barrier islands, we'd love to discuss your project.
The terms are often used interchangeably, but Florida rooms are commonly designed as transitional living spaces that connect indoor comfort with outdoor enjoyment. Depending on the design, they may feature screens, acrylic windows, vinyl windows, or glass.
It depends on your goals. Composite rooms provide more shade and help reduce heat thanks to insulated roof panels, while screen enclosures maximize airflow and create an open-air environment.
In many cases, yes. Existing patios or screen enclosures can often be upgraded with insulated roofing or window systems, depending on the existing structure and local building requirements.
Homes near the coast often benefit from designs that consider salt exposure, wind loads, and long-term durability. The best solution depends on your property's location and how you plan to use the space.
Many homeowners use their Florida rooms throughout the year. The level of comfort depends on factors such as roof insulation, ventilation, window type, shade, and the overall design of the space.
While every real estate market is different, professionally designed outdoor living spaces are often viewed as desirable features that enhance functionality and curb appeal.
Yes. Most Florida room projects require permits and must comply with current Florida building codes. Our team manages permitting and coordinates inspections as part of the project.
Every project is different. Factors such as permitting, engineering, material selection, weather, and project complexity all influence the installation timeline.
Many beachside homeowners choose insulated composite roof panels because they help reduce heat transfer while providing a durable, low-maintenance roofing solution suitable for Florida's climate.
The best choice depends on how you plan to use the space. During your consultation, we'll discuss your goals, evaluate your property, and explain the advantages of screen enclosures, lanais, composite rooms, patio enclosures, and Florida rooms so you can make an informed decision.
Whether you're envisioning a breezy screened lanai, a shaded composite room, a custom pool enclosure, or a versatile Florida room with acrylic windows, Lafferty Aluminum & Screening can help bring your vision to life.
