Screen enclosures that make a pool usable every day

A screen enclosure turns a pool into an outdoor room: no leaves, no bugs, more shade, and more safety. WETYR Pools designs and builds screen enclosures engineered for the climate.

Screen Enclosures

Pool Screen Enclosures

A pool screen enclosure, often called a pool cage, is one of the most practical additions a pool can have. It keeps out leaves, debris, and insects, cuts harsh sun, adds a real layer of child and pet safety, and dramatically reduces cleaning and chemical use. We design enclosures that are engineered for wind and weather and styled to suit the home.

WETYR Pools handles screen enclosures as a craftsman-led, design-build team. The people who plan your project are the people who build it and stand behind it, with no quality lost in the handoffs between separate companies. One team, one standard, and one point of accountability from the first conversation through long-term care.

Why It Matters

The addition that decides whether a pool gets used

An uncovered pool and a screen-enclosed pool are, in day-to-day life, two very different things. The uncovered pool collects every leaf, every seed pod, and every bit of pollen the wind delivers. It fills with insects at dusk, exactly when an evening swim is most appealing. It bakes under unbroken sun. And it sits as fully open water with no barrier around it. The screen-enclosed pool quietly solves all of that at once, which is why, in warm and humid climates, the enclosure is so often the difference between a pool that is used every day and one that is used a few times a season.

A screen enclosure does its work continuously and invisibly. It keeps the water and the deck clean, so far less time goes into skimming and cleaning. It keeps the bugs out, so the pool is genuinely pleasant in the evening. It filters harsh sun into comfortable shade, extending how long the deck is usable through the day. And a properly built enclosure with self-closing, self-latching doors adds a real layer of safety between young children, pets, and the water.

WETYR Pools designs and builds screen enclosures as a genuine part of the pool environment, not a cage bolted on as an afterthought. The result is an outdoor room: the pool, the deck, and the space around it, protected, comfortable, and used the way it was meant to be.

What's Included

Screen Enclosures, done right

Engineered for storms

Aluminum framing and connections designed and rated for real wind loads, not built to the bare minimum.

Less cleaning, less cost

Keeping debris and pollen out means less skimming, less filter strain, and lower chemical use.

Comfort and shade

Screen cuts harsh sun and insects, turning the pool deck into a comfortable outdoor room.

Styled to the home

Mansard, gable, dome, and flat-pan designs, with picture-window panels for unbroken views.

Enclosure Styles

Designing the enclosure to suit the home

A screen enclosure is a large structure, and its shape has a real effect on how the home looks and how the space feels. These are the main styles we design and build.

Mansard enclosures

The mansard style angles the roof framing inward before it flattens, a refined, traditional profile that suits a wide range of homes and keeps the structure from feeling boxy. It is one of the most popular and elegant choices.

Gable enclosures

A gable enclosure carries a peaked roofline, adding height, volume, and a more dramatic, architectural presence. It is well suited to larger pools and homes with steeper rooflines, and the extra height keeps the space airy.

Dome and hip styles

Curved dome and hip-style roofs soften the structure and shed debris and water well. They give the enclosure a lighter, more sculptural look over the pool.

Flat-pan and picture windows

A flat-pan roof is clean, simple, and economical, ideal for many homes. And on any style, picture-window panels, large panes framed without the usual cross-bracing, can be placed at eye level to give an almost unbroken view of the landscape beyond.

Built To Last

Engineered for wind, sun, and time

A screen enclosure lives outdoors in the full force of the climate, and in storm-prone regions it has to stand up to serious wind. This is exactly where enclosures are most often built poorly. An enclosure assembled to the bare minimum, with light framing, too few connections, and undersized anchors, can fail in a strong storm, and a failed enclosure becomes a hazard. An enclosure that was genuinely engineered performs quietly through the same conditions.

WETYR Pools builds enclosures to last. The aluminum framing is sized correctly for the span and the wind load, the connections and fasteners are specified and installed to hold, and the structure is anchored properly to the deck or footing. We engineer the enclosure for the real conditions of your site, not for the easiest path to a permit. Aluminum is the right material because it does not rust, and the screen itself can be specified for durability, for finer no-see-um mesh, or for higher shade and privacy where wanted.

Done correctly, a screen enclosure is a long-term structure that protects the pool for decades. Done cheaply, it is a liability. The engineering underneath the screen is the part that decides which one you get.

Planning & Investment

What goes into a screen enclosure project

The cost of a screen enclosure is driven by its size and height, the roof style, the structural engineering the span and wind load require, the type of screen specified, and the number and type of doors and any picture-window panels. A tall gable enclosure over a large pool is a more involved structure than a modest flat-pan enclosure, and is priced accordingly.

An enclosure can be designed into a new pool project from the start, which is ideal because the deck, the footings, and the enclosure can all be planned together, or it can be added to an existing pool and deck. We assess the pool, the deck, and the home, and design an enclosure that fits the structure properly and complements the architecture rather than fighting it.

As with every WETYR project, a screen enclosure is presented as a fixed, itemized proposal before any work begins, and we manage the permitting and inspections as part of the job. It is one of the highest-value practical additions a pool owner can make, and built properly it pays that value back in cleaner water, lower upkeep, more comfort, and more safety for the entire life of the pool.

Questions Answered

Screen Enclosures FAQ

Clear answers to the questions homeowners ask most.

What does a pool screen enclosure do?+

A screen enclosure, or pool cage, keeps leaves, debris, pollen, and insects out of the pool, filters harsh sun into comfortable shade, and, with self-closing, self-latching doors, adds a layer of child and pet safety. It dramatically reduces cleaning and chemical use.

Does a screen enclosure really reduce maintenance?+

Yes, significantly. By keeping debris and pollen out of the water, an enclosure means far less skimming and cleaning, less strain on the filter, and lower chemical use. It is one of the most practical ways to make a pool easier to own.

Are screen enclosures safe in storms?+

A properly engineered enclosure is. The aluminum framing must be sized for the span and wind load, with connections and anchors specified to hold. We engineer every enclosure for the real conditions of its site, because an enclosure built to the bare minimum can fail in a strong storm.

Can a screen enclosure be added to an existing pool?+

Yes. An enclosure can be added to an existing pool and deck, or designed into a new pool project from the start. Designing it with a new build is ideal, because the deck, footings, and enclosure can all be planned together.

What enclosure styles are available?+

Common roof styles include mansard, gable, dome and hip, and flat-pan, each suiting different homes and pool sizes. Picture-window panels can be added to any style for large, near-unbroken views of the landscape beyond the screen.

Is a screen enclosure a child safety barrier?+

It adds a layer of protection when fitted with self-closing, self-latching doors, but it works best as one layer alongside fencing and alarms. No barrier, and no enclosure, replaces adult supervision around water.
