Custom pool screen enclosures, engineered for Tampa Bay.
A pool screen enclosure is the most Florida upgrade there is — it keeps love bugs, mosquitos, and oak leaves out of the water, takes the edge off the summer sun, and doubles as the safety barrier state law requires. LIV designs and builds custom aluminum pool cages across Tampa Bay — with a new pool, a remodel, or as a standalone project — engineered and permitted in-house for Pinellas and Hillsborough wind zones.
An enclosure that satisfies Florida's Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act — the approved barrier your home's CO depends on.
Love bugs, mosquitos, no-see-ums, and oak leaves stay out — so cleaning time and chemical demand drop.
Aluminum framing engineered and permitted in-house for Hillsborough and Pinellas wind loads.
Screen panels filter harsh Gulf Coast UV, keeping the deck and water comfortable through a Florida summer.
Panoramic screens that disappear into the view.
A traditional pool cage puts an aluminum grid between you and the backyard. A panoramic — or picture-window — enclosure removes the horizontal mid-rails at eye level and spans oversized screen panels between fewer, stronger uprights, so from a lounge chair the cage all but vanishes. It's a design we've built on our own custom Tampa Bay projects, and on a view lot it changes the entire feel of the pool.
Bigger spans carry bigger loads, so a panoramic cage leans harder on engineering — heavier framing, deeper anchors, and drawings sized to local wind zones. LIV engineers and permits every enclosure in-house, whether it goes up with a new pool, a remodel, or as a standalone project, and you see the cage — roof profile, wall heights, and screen layout — in your free 3D design before the first stick of aluminum is ordered.

Pool Screen Enclosures across Tampa Bay.
Love bug season, afternoon storms, and oaks that shed year-round can keep an open Tampa Bay pool on the skimmer more than in the swim. We engineer and build permitted screen enclosures across Pinellas and Hillsborough that keep the bugs and leaves out — so a year-round swim season actually gets used year-round.

Frequently asked questions.
How much does a pool screen enclosure cost in Tampa Bay?
It depends on the footprint, the roof style — mansard and gable frame differently — and whether you choose a traditional grid or a panoramic picture-window design, which uses heavier framing and larger screen spans. A two-story cage is a different project again. Rather than quote a blind range, we model the enclosure in your free 3D design and hand you a transparent, itemized quote — every beam, panel, and door priced line by line, with financing available.
Does a screen enclosure count as a pool safety barrier in Florida?
Yes — and for most Tampa Bay pools it's the barrier of choice. Florida's Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act requires every new residential pool to have an approved safety barrier before the home can receive its certificate of occupancy, and a screen enclosure with self-closing, self-latching doors satisfies the law while also keeping bugs and leaves out of the water. We build every enclosure to those requirements and close out the barrier inspection as part of the project.
What is a panoramic screen enclosure, and is it worth it?
A panoramic — or picture-window — enclosure removes the horizontal mid-rails at eye level and spans oversized screen panels between fewer, stronger uprights, so the view reads as open backyard instead of an aluminum grid. It costs more than a traditional cage because larger spans demand heavier engineering, but on a view lot or a showpiece pool it transforms the way the backyard feels. We've built custom panoramic enclosures on our own Tampa Bay projects, and we model both styles in your free 3D design so you can compare.
How long does a pool screen enclosure take, including permits?
Plan on the engineering and permit typically running a few weeks in Pinellas and Hillsborough, then most installations go up in roughly a week once materials arrive — panoramic and two-story cages take longer. Because LIV engineers and permits in-house, the drawings, the permit, and the build run on one schedule, and when the enclosure is part of a new pool we sequence it so the barrier inspection never holds up your CO.
What screen mesh options are available for a pool enclosure?
Standard fiberglass screen handles most Tampa Bay backyards, but it isn't the only option. No-see-um mesh uses a tighter 20/20 weave that stops the tiny biting midges standard screen lets through — worth it near the water — and pet screen is a heavier, tear-resistant mesh we use on lower wall panels and doors where dogs lean and scratch. We walk you through the trade-offs in airflow, visibility, and durability, and you can mix meshes panel by panel.
