Venice was laid out in 1926 to John Nolen's plan, and the developers required Mediterranean Revival buildings on the new streets. A century later the city still restores those buildings instead of tearing them down. That habit carries over to lanais. Most of the cages on the island and the mainland shore date from the 1950s through the 1980s, and under the chalked paint and tired mesh the aluminum is usually sound.
Venice Lanai Screens connects homeowners in Venice with a local screen contractor who treats an aging enclosure the same way. New screen, stainless steel in every connection, and a fresh finish on the frame are three trades in one project, and the in-person estimate visit sorts out which of them your cage needs.
Gulf salt air works on fasteners before anything else. Zinc-coated screws streak rust early, and rust at the screw heads is a cage's first request for attention. Stainless fastener replacement renews those connections with 316 stainless, which resists the salt. Chalked, oxidized framing gets cleaned, sealed, and recoated in a frame repainting and cage restoration job, and a full pool cage rescreening handles mesh that has aged out across the enclosure.
Homes inside the city limits pull permits through the City of Venice building department. A mesh-only rescreen usually needs none; structural frame work does. Hurricane Ian tore the roof off the Venice Theatre in 2022 from a landfall fifty miles south, and Milton came ashore in Sarasota County in October 2024, the county's first hurricane landfall since 1944. A cage that stood through both has flexed at every screw.

The makeover: chalked, oxidized aluminum cleaned, prepped, and refinished, with stainless hardware and fresh screen done in the same project. The cage you have, looking like the cage you bought.
Full or partial mesh replacement on aluminum pool enclosures. Walls, roof panels, or the whole cage, with new spline throughout and mesh matched to how the cage faces.
Fresh mesh and spline for under-truss lanais, screened porches, and patio rooms, with door panels and kick plates renewed at the same visit.
Every screw connection in the cage renewed with marine-grade stainless steel. The least visible part of a renovation and the one that matters most when the wind comes back.
Single panels and small sets: torn mesh, blown spline, sagging sections. Mesh matched to the existing weave and color so the repair disappears.
Doors that drag, slam, or will not latch. New mesh, hinges, closers, latches, and kick plates, or a new door hung square when the old one is past adjusting.
A before-June walk-around: cable tension and anchors, fastener condition, spline and mesh, door hardware, with a written punch list you can schedule from.
