Lanai Extension in Marsh Landing

Marsh Landing lanai extensions with the roof, ceiling and floor carried out as one.

A lanai should hold a dining table, a sofa and maybe a kitchen. Many original lanais in Marsh Landing don't. We extend them with a roof that matches the house and a floor that runs from the old slab into the new space.

Before We Draw Your Marsh Landing Lanai Extension

Marshfront Marsh Landing lots keep their view best with open structures and expanded-view screens. Mature landscaping is common on Marsh Landing lots, so placement is planned around what's already there. Near the coast, a roof has to stand up to wind, so the structure is designed to Florida Building Code wind requirements and tied in properly.

Carrying the ceiling through is what makes the old lanai and the extension feel like one room. Before we draw a lanai extension in Marsh Landing, we check what happens to the existing screen, where the floor seam would fall and how the new roof ties into the old one.

The EPA's UV Index guidance recommends seeking shade during late morning through mid-afternoon whenever the UV Index is moderate or higher.
