Custom Front Porch Screen Installation, October 2025

Project Overview

This custom front porch screening project in Tampa, Florida, focused on enclosing an open front entryway with a durable aluminum screen system while preserving the home’s architectural character. The homeowner wanted a functional, pest-free entry that maintained airflow, visibility, and curb appeal—without compromising the unique arched design of the porch.

Our team completed the entire installation in a single day, delivering a clean, secure, and visually seamless result that blends naturally with the home’s exterior.

The Challenge

The front entry was fully exposed, allowing insects and debris into the doorway while offering minimal protection from the elements. The arched opening added an extra layer of complexity, as curved entryways require precise measurements and custom fabrication to achieve a secure, visually balanced fit.

The homeowner needed a screening solution that preserved the arched architectural detail while maintaining natural airflow and light, providing reliable insect protection, matching the home’s exterior finish, and delivering a clean, professional appearance that enhanced overall curb appeal.

Our Solution & Materials

We designed and installed a custom-fit front porch screen enclosure built specifically for this entryway:

• Custom aluminum framing fabricated to follow the arched opening precisely
• Standard insect screen mesh is installed to allow airflow while keeping pests out
• Full enclosure coverage, including side panels and a screened entry door
• Tight spline installation to ensure long-term screen tension and wind resistance
• Clean, seamless finishing that complements the home’s stucco and trim
• Efficient, low-impact installation, completed in one day with no disruption

All materials were selected for durability, rust resistance, and long-term performance in Florida’s heat, humidity, and seasonal weather conditions.
