Screen Enclosure Builder in St. Johns, FL
St. Johns screen rooms and enclosures, planned in AutoCAD with the roof, the floor and the doors.
A screened room is often the most-used space in a St. Johns home from April through October. We plan the frame, the doors, the floor and any roof together so the enclosure looks like it came with the house. From RiverTown on the river to the newer neighborhoods inland, most St. Johns homes are in newer planned communities.

St. Johns Screen Room Choices
- Screen rooms with a solid roof. A roofed screen room keeps rain off the furniture and still lets the breeze through.
- Expanded-view upgrade. Cleaner frame lines so the yard reads like a picture window.
- Fans and lights inside. Wired into the roof or beams so the screened room works after dark.
- New floor underneath. Pavers or an extended slab so the enclosure has a finished floor.
Standard insect screen offers only partial sun protection: one manufacturer rates common charcoal pool-and-patio mesh at up to about 44% sun and UV blockage.
Planning a Screen Enclosure in St. Johns
Communities like Durbin Crossing, Aberdeen and Stillwater have many homes on pond or preserve lots, where the view is the main event. Water views and bugs go together, so a screen enclosure with our expanded-view upgrade keeps the view open and the mosquitoes out.
Fans inside a screened room keep the air moving on still evenings, so we plan the mounting points before the roof goes on. Before we draw a screen enclosure in St. Johns, we check what floor the enclosure will sit on, where fans and lights can be mounted and the view you want to keep from inside.
Tighter solar screen fabrics block far more: manufacturer specs rate them at roughly 68% UV blockage and up to 90% of the sun's heat, depending on the weave.
St. Johns HOA Review and Permits
From RiverTown to Stillwater, nearly every St. Johns community has an architectural review committee, and the bigger ones add village-level rules, so the submittal has to match the right set of guidelines. Boards usually look at screen and frame colors, the enclosure's height and how it meets the roof. Confirm current guidelines with your association.
St. Johns County issues the permit, usually after a clearance sheet, and registered architectural review associations can be notified automatically. That's one reason we get HOA approval first. Every permitted structure gets its necessary engineered documents.

Frequently Asked Questions

Screened porch or pergola? A screened area keeps bugs out, and a pergola is about shade and style. Many homeowners combine a covered extension with screening.
Can a hot tub go inside a screen enclosure? Yes. We plan the pad or build-up and the electrical with the enclosure so it all fits.
Does my St. Johns HOA get notified about my permit? In many cases, yes. St. Johns County keeps a list of registered architectural review associations that are notified when a permit application for exterior construction is filed. That's one more reason we get your HOA approval first. Confirm current guidelines with your association.
Will my St. Johns HOA review a screen enclosure? Plan on it. Most St. Johns neighborhoods are planned communities with their own architectural review, and many larger ones have village or sub-association rules on top of the master guidelines. We prepare the site plan, scaled drawings and material and color selections and submit them with you. Confirm current guidelines with your association.
Who permits a screen enclosure in St. Johns? Screen enclosures are permitted structures in Northeast Florida, and HOAs usually set rules on frame and screen colors and on height. Permits for St. Johns homes come from St. Johns County. The county requires a recorded Notice of Commencement before the first inspection on permitted projects, and electrical work is permitted and inspected like the rest of the build. We handle the permit and inspections, and every permitted structure gets its necessary engineered documents.
