Screened-In Patios in Houston, TX
Houston backyards can be amazing—until mosquitoes, gnats, humidity, and windblown debris push you inside. We build screened-in patios, screen rooms, and patio enclosures that keep the outdoor feel while making the space easier to use year-round.
Tell us your patio size and what you want to fix most—bugs, sun, privacy, or pet durability.
Why screening makes a big difference in Houston
Houston is a city of neighborhoods—each with its own feel—and outdoor living looks different depending on where you are.
You might be grilling in the Heights, relaxing under mature trees in Spring Branch, or enjoying a backyard that backs up to a bayou greenbelt.
But across the metro, the reality is similar: long humid seasons, sudden rain, and mosquito pressure that can spike fast.
Add construction dust, pollen, and leaves, and patios often turn into spaces you “mean to use” more than you actually do.
A screened-in patio gives you a simple upgrade that has daily impact. It helps reduce mosquitoes and gnats,
keeps breezes moving, and creates a more comfortable spot for family dinners, watching a game, or letting kids play without constantly shooing bugs.
In Houston, we also think about practical details like drainage around the slab, how gutters spill during heavy storms,
and how to place a door so it makes sense with the way you move through the home—kitchen to grill, living room to seating area, or pool access if you have one.
Many Houston homes have patios that face intense afternoon sun, so screening is often paired with a cover to improve shade and comfort.
For homes near green spaces or water, we can discuss tighter mesh options (like no-see-um) to help reduce smaller insects.
If pets are part of the household, we can recommend tougher screening in high-traffic areas.
Our enclosures are built with powder-coated aluminum frames (White, Bronze, Clay, Sandstone) to blend with brick, siding, and trim so the final result looks clean and intentional.

Yes. A properly screened enclosure greatly reduces mosquitoes, gnats, and other flying pests while still allowing outdoor air to move through the patio.

Often, yes. We inspect the slab, drainage, and attachment points and outline any needed improvements before installation begins.
