Enclosure FAQ
Learn more about the durability, maintenance, and construction of our premium custom screened enclosures.
What type of screen mesh do you recommend for coastal homes?
We recommend high-tensile polyester screens like Phifer TuffScreen or PetScreen. These are engineered to resist tears from pets, wild animals, and wind-blown debris, while providing excellent visibility and airflow. For areas with tiny insects, we offer specialized micro-mesh screens.
Are your screened enclosures engineered for hurricane-force winds?
Yes. Every custom enclosure we build is fully engineered to meet or exceed strict South Carolina and Georgia coastal building codes for wind-load requirements. We utilize heavy-duty 6063-T6 structural aluminum framing and marine-grade anchoring systems to ensure maximum stability during severe coastal storms.
How long does it take to design and build a custom screen enclosure?
On-site installation typically takes only 3 to 7 business days. The initial design, engineering, and local HOA or municipal permitting phase generally takes 3 to 6 weeks before construction begins.
Can you install a screened enclosure over an existing concrete patio?
Yes. We can anchor our custom structural aluminum frames directly to your existing concrete slab, pavers, or wood deck, provided the foundation is structurally sound. If your concrete needs resurfacing first, we can handle that as well.
Do you offer both concrete coatings and screened enclosures?
Yes. As May River's premier outdoor living specialists, we provide both wind-rated screen enclosures and premium concrete coatings. This allows us to completely transform your patio, pool deck, or lanai from the floor up in one seamless project.
How much does a custom screened enclosure cost?
Most custom screened enclosures range from $8,000 to $25,000, depending on size, features, and site conditions. Factors like roof style, screen type, electrical integration, and foundation prep all influence the final investment. We provide detailed, transparent quotes after your free on-site consultation.
What warranty do you provide on your enclosures?
Every screened enclosure we build is backed by a comprehensive 1-year labor warranty and a 15-year material warranty. This ensures your investment is protected against workmanship defects and material failures, giving you complete peace of mind for years to come.
