There’s nothing quite like outdoor living in Florida. But if you’ve ever battled mosquitoes, harsh sun, or rain showers while trying to relax, you know how quickly that can ruin the fun. That’s where custom screen enclosures come in. Designed for comfort, protection, and style, these outdoor additions allow you to enjoy your space year-round. At Quality Custom Contracting, we build durable, custom screen enclosures across Tampa Bay that stand up to Florida’s weather and enhance your home’s value.
What Makes Custom Screen Enclosures a Must-Have for Florida Homes
Florida’s sunshine and warm weather make outdoor spaces essential, but humidity, bugs, and UV rays can make those spaces hard to enjoy. Installing a screen enclosure transforms your patio, pool area, or lanai into a relaxing, protected oasis. Homeowners throughout Hillsborough, Pinellas, Manatee, Sarasota, and Pasco counties love how enclosures combine comfort, style, and function in one affordable upgrade.
Protection and Comfort
With a professionally built screen enclosure, you can say goodbye to mosquito bites and sunburns. These structures allow airflow while blocking pests and debris, letting you enjoy outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing any time of day. Many homeowners also notice a drop in temperatures beneath the enclosure, thanks to the shade it provides.
Boosting Home Value and Curb Appeal
Adding a custom screen enclosure does more than improve comfort—it enhances property value. Buyers love homes with versatile outdoor spaces. An enclosed patio or pool area signals low-maintenance living and year-round usability, both of which are major selling points in the Tampa Bay real estate market.
The Different Types of Screen Enclosures
Not all screen enclosures are built the same. The right style depends on your home layout, intended use, and budget. Here are a few of the most popular options we build at Quality Custom Contracting:
- Patio and Lanai Enclosures: Great for extending your living space into the outdoors, these enclosures create a comfortable area for lounging or dining without exposure to pests or rain.
- Pool Enclosures: Keep your pool area cleaner, safer, and easier to maintain by blocking leaves, insects, and UV rays while still enjoying the breeze.
- Front Entry Enclosures: Enhance curb appeal while keeping bugs out of your entryway. These also add a touch of security and privacy.
- Custom Enclosures: For irregular spaces or specific designs, we build made-to-measure enclosures that perfectly match your home’s architecture.
Choosing the Right Materials
Screen enclosures must stand up to Florida’s humidity, wind, and sun. At QCC, we use high-quality aluminum framing and premium screening materials that resist corrosion and UV damage. These materials are lightweight yet strong, ensuring your structure remains durable and attractive for years to come.
Benefits of Installing a Custom Screen Enclosure
There are many reasons homeowners across Tampa Bay are investing in screen enclosures. Here are some of the most valuable benefits:
1. Year-Round Outdoor Living
Screen enclosures let you enjoy your backyard even during Florida’s hottest months. The screens allow airflow while filtering sunlight and keeping insects out, making your outdoor space usable in every season.
2. Energy Efficiency
Screened patios can naturally cool adjacent interior rooms, reducing strain on your air conditioning. That added shade translates to potential energy savings—an often-overlooked perk of installing a high-quality enclosure.
3. Low Maintenance
Because enclosures block debris and prevent unwanted guests like birds or rodents, they keep your outdoor area cleaner. Whether you have a pool or patio, you’ll spend less time cleaning and more time enjoying.
4. Safety and Privacy
For families with children or pets, screen enclosures create a safe boundary while maintaining visibility and openness. You can relax knowing your outdoor area is both secure and comfortable.

Maintenance Tips to Keep Your Screen Enclosure Looking New
One of the best things about screen enclosures is how little maintenance they require. Still, a little routine care helps them last even longer and look their best year-round. Here’s how to keep yours in top shape:
- Rinse the screens and frame with a garden hose every few months to remove dirt and pollen.
- Inspect for small tears or loose panels after storms and schedule quick repairs to prevent larger damage.
- Trim nearby trees and shrubs to reduce debris buildup on the enclosure roof.
- Check fasteners and frame joints annually to ensure everything stays tight and secure.
With simple upkeep, your screen enclosure can last decades—especially when built with QCC’s durable materials and precision craftsmanship.
