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.

Homeowners in Merritt Island, FL enjoy a one-of-a-kind lifestyle surrounded by the Banana River, Indian River Lagoon, and close proximity to the Kennedy Space Center, Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, and well-known neighborhoods such as South Tropical Trail, Newfound Harbor, and Merritt Ridge. With warm weather and abundant waterfront scenery, a screened-in porch offers an ideal outdoor living space protected from insects, sun exposure, and coastal moisture. Lafferty Aluminum & Screening builds screened-in porches designed to complement Merritt Island homes while providing durability against Florida’s coastal conditions.
Merritt Island is known for its waterfront communities, canal homes, and exposure to coastal winds and salt air. Screened-in porches here must be engineered for longevity, airflow, and structural strength. Our screened-in porches meet these needs while enhancing comfort and curb appeal.
