Screen Enclosure Builder in St. Augustine, FL

Bug-free evenings in St. Augustine: screen enclosures with clean frame lines and the view kept open.

A good screen enclosure is what makes a Florida backyard usable from spring through fall: no bugs, less debris, and the view stays open. AY Luxury Designs designs and builds screen enclosures for homeowners in St. Augustine, often together with a gazebo, a lanai extension or a covered patio, so the screen, the roof and the floor look like one design. Across the Bridge of Lions, Davis Shores and Anastasia Island homes sit closer to the ocean breeze than the communities out west.

Screen Enclosure Options in St. Augustine

Doors where you walk. Door placement follows your path from the house to the yard and the grill.
Screening an existing lanai. Close in what you already have with new framing matched to the house.
Hot tub inside the screen. Soak without the bugs, with a pad or build-up planned in.
Frame color choices. Frame colors chosen to suit your home and your community's guidelines.

Ordinary window screen won't stop no-see-ums: UF/IFAS notes that regular screens don't keep out biting midges, which need a much finer no-see-um mesh.

Before We Draw Your St. Augustine Screen Enclosure

Palencia and Markland sit between US 1 and the Intracoastal, where marsh and golf views are part of many lots. Near ponds and creeks, bugs are part of the deal, which is why screened space gets so much use.

If you already have an older enclosure, we look at whether to replace it or tie a new roofed room into it during the in-home design visit. Before we draw a screen enclosure in St. Augustine, we check how the enclosure meets your existing roof, where the doors should go for daily traffic and which frame color suits the house.

Approvals and Permits in St. Augustine

Whether a St. Augustine project goes to an HOA board, the City's historic review or neither depends on the address, so we sort that out before we draw anything. For a screen enclosure, boards commonly ask about frame color, screen type and how the new framing ties into the house. Confirm current guidelines with your association.

Two offices permit St. Augustine homes: the City inside its limits and St. Johns County outside them. We pull the right permit for your address and schedule the inspections. Every permitted structure gets its necessary engineered documents.

The Florida Building Code has its own section for screen enclosures, and it requires their structural members to be designed for wind from two directions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the price of a screen enclosure in St. Augustine set? We price each project from its AutoCAD design. The expanded-view upgrade; doors and retractable screens; lighting and fans; the floor underneath; and engineering and permits all move the number. Every AY Luxury Designs project has a $10,000 minimum, and the itemized quote arrives within 24 hours of your consultation.

Do I need a screen to deal with bugs? Screening is the most effective way to enjoy the outdoors without bugs. We can add a screen enclosure to what you have or design one into your project.

What is the expanded-view upgrade? It's our option for cleaner frame lines, so you see more yard and less framing.

Is my St. Augustine home permitted by the City or the county? It depends on your address. Homes inside St. Augustine city limits are permitted by the City, and homes outside them, including most of the newer master-planned communities, are permitted by St. Johns County. We confirm it before we design.

Does a screen enclosure in St. Augustine go to the HOA? Usually, yes. In St. Augustine, the review that matters depends on where you live: a community architectural review board in places like SilverLeaf, Palencia or Markland, the City's historic review downtown, or simply the county's rules on an older street. We prepare the site plan, scaled drawings and material and color selections and submit them with you. Confirm current guidelines with your association.

Does a screen enclosure in St. Augustine need a permit? Usually. The City of St. Augustine inside city limits and St. Johns County outside them issues the permit, depending on your address. We prepare the package, pull the permit and schedule the inspections. Every permitted structure gets its necessary engineered documents.
