Before building a pool enclosure in Florida, you need to obtain a permit.

Bishop’s Aluminum handles that process for you, so you don’t have to.

Because Bishop’s Aluminum handles both your permitting and engineering, the time for both is considerably less than if you the client had to do it alone. Bishop’s Aluminum’s process for permitting and engineering is an average of 75 days.

In Florida all pools are required to be entirely enclosed with a barrier.

There are several advantages of having a pool cage, lanai, or even a front entry in Florida. A well-built pool cage, lanai, or front entry not only boosts the curb appeal of your home, but it may also increase the resale value and equity in your home.

Additionally, pool cages, lanai, and front entries can protect you and your family from flying insects and other critters. Ask Bishop’s Aluminum about noseeum screen!

Furthermore, screened areas with the correct screen can help keep your children and pets safe, and reduce chemical usage for your pool.

Bishop’s Aluminum recommends a soft brush or a light pressure wash with warm water, and a mild dish detergent such as Dawn.

You should never use bleach or any other harsh chemical to clean your pool cage, this can discolor and corrode the metal, screen, and fasteners.
