Bringing Quality Screen Enclosures to Clermont’s Growing Lake County Communities
Clermont’s identity has shifted dramatically over the past decade. What was once a quiet agricultural community in the rolling hills west of Orlando is now one of the most sought-after addresses in Central Florida — and the residential growth that has followed reflects that. Thousands of new homes have been built across Clermont’s lake-view communities, master-planned subdivisions, and golf course neighborhoods, bringing with them a generation of homeowners who are investing in quality outdoor living structures from the ground up.
At L.A. Construction Custom Screen Builders, we understand what it takes to build and maintain a pool screen enclosure in Clermont’s environment. The city’s rolling terrain, its collection of small lakes, and its position in Central Florida’s subtropical climate zone create year-round UV exposure, persistent humidity, and the storm season conditions that demand properly designed and permitted enclosures. Our team brings over a decade of experience and more than 5,000 completed projects across Central Florida to every job we take on in Clermont.
Clermont’s homeowner base covers the full range of project types — new construction pool cage builds in recently developed subdivisions, rescreening and painting on structures from the late 1990s and early 2000s, and full structural restoration on older enclosures in established communities like Kings Ridge and Heritage Hills. We handle all of it, and we manage the entire process — permits, HOA coordination, installation, and follow-up — from start to finish.

The Practical Benefits of a Pool Screen Enclosure in Clermont
Clermont’s position in Central Florida’s subtropical climate makes a quality pool screen enclosure one of the most practical investments a homeowner in this market can make. The benefits extend well beyond appearance — they directly affect how often and how comfortably your outdoor space can be used throughout the entire year.
Here is what Clermont homeowners consistently value most after installation:
- Insect protection — Clermont’s proximity to its chain of lakes and the area’s warm, humid climate sustains active mosquito and no-see-um populations throughout the spring, summer, and fall. USA-made Phifer screen mesh provides a reliable barrier that keeps insects out without restricting airflow or blocking the lake and hill views that define Clermont’s landscape.
- Reduced pool maintenance — A screened enclosure dramatically reduces the volume of leaves, pollen, and windblown debris that enters the pool — a significant advantage in Clermont’s tree-heavy lake communities. Lower debris volume means less time cleaning and reduced chemical use over the course of the year.
- UV and heat management — Florida’s sun intensity is among the highest in the continental United States. Screen mesh filters meaningful solar radiation, reducing surface temperatures on the patio and protecting outdoor furniture, flooring, and your family from sustained UV exposure during Clermont’s long outdoor season.
- Storm debris management — Clermont receives frequent afternoon thunderstorms from late spring through early fall, and the broader storm season brings occasional tropical weather events. A properly engineered enclosure manages these conditions and reduces post-storm cleanup.
- Extended outdoor usability — With an enclosure, Clermont’s pool and patio remain usable in conditions — heavy insect activity, strong afternoon sun, light rain — that would otherwise limit outdoor time. Homeowners with enclosed pools consistently report using their outdoor spaces far more frequently after installation.
- Property value — In Clermont’s competitive Lake County real estate market, a well-maintained pool enclosure is a recognized and valued feature that contributes positively to both appraisal and resale value.

Design and Customization Options for Clermont Homes
Every Clermont property is different — from the newer lake-view subdivisions in the north to the established 55-plus communities and hillside neighborhoods throughout the city — and every enclosure we build reflects the specific dimensions, roofline, and homeowner preferences of that individual property. We offer a full range of structural configurations and material options to fit any Clermont home and any budget.
Screen Types
- Panoramic (clearview) screen — A nearly invisible fine mesh that maximizes views and the open, airy feel of the enclosure. The right choice for properties with lake views, golf course sight lines, or open vistas you want to preserve.
- Privacy screen — A denser weave that reduces outside visibility into the pool area while providing meaningful UV and heat shading. Recommended for homes on tighter lots or properties with street-facing or neighbor-facing pool areas.
- Pet-resistant screen — A heavier gauge mesh engineered to resist tearing from pet claws. Available in both panoramic and privacy weaves and compatible with all roof styles.
Roof Configurations
- Flat roof — A clean, low-profile design well-suited to most single-story Clermont homes. Efficient to permit and install, and the most budget-accessible roofline option.
- Gable roof — A pitched, A-frame roofline that adds height and a more finished architectural appearance. Works well on homes that already carry a gabled roofline.
- Hip roof — A four-sided sloped roof providing excellent drainage and a polished, architecturally refined look. Popular in Clermont’s HOA communities with stricter architectural standards.
- Mansard roof — A multi-slope design that creates a taller, more open interior — ideal for larger pool areas where interior height is a priority.
Add-On Features
- Super gutters — An internal gutter system that collects rainwater from the roof and directs it away from the pool deck, preventing deck pooling and reducing splash-in during Clermont’s frequent afternoon storms.
- Screen doors — Standard single-panel doors, French-style double doors, or decorative entry options fitted to the enclosure’s architecture.
- Kick plates — Aluminum base panels at the bottom of wall sections that protect the screen mesh from lawn equipment, pet contact, and soil splash-back.
- Florida Glass — An opaque privacy panel for lower wall sections, providing a visual buffer from neighbors or passing traffic while keeping upper sections fully open.

Expert Pool Screen Repair and Rescreening Services in Clermont
Clermont’s established neighborhoods — including communities built during the late 1990s and early 2000s — have a significant inventory of pool enclosures that are approaching or past the point where professional attention adds real value. UV exposure degrades screen mesh, Florida’s humidity corrodes aluminum fasteners, and repeated storm season wind stress gradually loosens frame connections. L.A. Construction provides comprehensive repair and restoration services designed to extend the life of your Clermont enclosure without the cost of a full replacement.
Here is what we can help with:
Mesh Replacement: Replacing torn, stretched, or UV-degraded screen panels with new USA-made Phifer mesh restores full protection and appearance. We match or upgrade the mesh type — panoramic, privacy, or pet-resistant — based on your current needs and property conditions.
Structural Reinforcement: We replace corroded screws, spline, and hardware throughout the frame, secure loose structural members, and confirm that all base and roof connections are properly anchored. Clermont’s combination of humidity and seasonal wind load creates corrosion patterns that are often not visible until a structure is inspected in detail.
Hurricane Cable Replacement: Diagonal stainless steel hurricane cables are a Florida building code requirement on all pool cages. They loosen, corrode, or go missing over time. We inspect and replace hurricane cables on all restoration work.
Door and Hardware Repair: Screen doors receive more daily wear than any other part of the enclosure. We install new hinges, closers, latches, and bug sweeps to ensure doors operate correctly and seal properly against insects and debris.
Super Gutter Repair and Replacement: A failing super gutter causes water intrusion onto the pool deck and progressive frame stress over time. We repair or replace damaged gutter sections and confirm proper drainage away from the pool area.
Total Cage Restoration: For enclosures with widespread wear, we offer a complete refurbishment — full rescreening, fastener replacement throughout, hurricane cable inspection and replacement, structural assessment, and pool cage repainting using epoxy-based coatings designed for aluminum in Florida’s climate. Repainting is recommended every 5–7 years.
Most repair and rescreening projects in Clermont are completed in 1–2 days. We provide an honest, direct assessment of every structure and recommend only what is actually needed.

Completed Projects
1. Do I need a permit to build a pool cage or screen enclosure in St. Cloud, FL?
Yes. Pool cages and screen enclosures are classified as structural additions in St. Cloud and throughout Osceola County, and a building permit is required before construction begins. The process involves submitting engineering documents and site plans to the Osceola County building department for review and approval. L.A. Construction manages the entire permitting process on every project — from preparing and submitting the required documentation to scheduling required inspections. Homeowners do not need to contact the building department or manage any paperwork themselves.
2. How does proximity to East Lake Tohopekaliga affect pool enclosure needs in St. Cloud?
East Lake Tohopekaliga is one of the largest lakes in Central Florida and a defining feature of St. Cloud’s residential landscape. Properties near the lake experience elevated insect activity, particularly mosquitoes and midges during the warmer months and evenings. Lake-adjacent properties also tend to experience higher ambient humidity, which over time can accelerate corrosion of lower-quality aluminum frames and fasteners. For homes near East Lake Toho, we recommend tight-weave Phifer screen mesh for maximum insect control. If your property has a water view you want to preserve, panoramic screen is the right choice — it provides effective screening while remaining nearly invisible from a distance.
3. What screen type works best for St. Cloud homes near the water?
For homes near East Lake Tohopekaliga or other bodies of water in the St. Cloud area, we typically recommend panoramic screen for properties where preserving sight lines to the water is a priority, and tight-weave privacy screen where insect control and UV shading are the primary concern. Panoramic mesh is nearly invisible from a distance and does not obstruct views, but privacy screen provides noticeably better insect exclusion and significantly more UV and heat reduction. For homes with pets, pet-resistant screen is available in both weave types. Our team will walk you through the options during your free in-home consultation and help you choose what fits your property.
4. How long does a pool screen enclosure installation take in St. Cloud?
For a new pool cage build in St. Cloud, the typical timeline is 2 to 4 weeks from initial consultation to project completion, including the permitting process. The consultation, design, and permit application generally happen within the first week. Permit review by Osceola County and any required HOA approval can take one to two weeks depending on the community. Once permits are in hand, most installations are completed on-site in two to three days. For repair and rescreening work, most projects are completed in one to two days.
5. Does L.A. Construction serve all of St. Cloud and Osceola County?
Yes. We serve all of St. Cloud and the broader Osceola County market, including Kissimmee, Celebration, Poinciana, and surrounding communities. St. Cloud is part of our established Osceola County service area, built alongside the Kissimmee market as part of our ongoing Central Florida expansion. We also serve Orange, Seminole, Volusia, and Lake Counties throughout the Greater Orlando area.
