Lanai, screened enclosure & Florida room additions in Sarasota and surrounding areas

A lanai or Florida room is usually the space a family ends up living in the most. At E&E General Contracting, we build screened lanais, pool enclosures, and fully insulated Florida rooms across Sarasota, Bradenton, Osprey, Nokomis, and North Port — designed to match your home's existing roofline and finishes, not bolted on as an afterthought.

Every project is engineered to meet Florida's wind-load and building code requirements for your specific zone. Our team handles permitting, engineering, and inspections directly — one company, one point of contact, from design through final walk-through.

Screened lanais

Aluminum or wood-framed screen enclosures over existing patios or pool decks — bug-free, breeze in.

Pool enclosures

Screened structures built around existing or new pools, engineered for the space and local wind codes.

Under-truss extensions

Extending your existing roofline for a seamless, built-in look rather than a separate attached structure.

Lighting & electrical

Fans, recessed lighting, and outlets added to make the space fully livable day and night.

HVAC extension

Extending existing HVAC into an enclosed Florida room for true year-round comfort.


What makes our lanai & Florida room builds different

We tell you the truth about what's possible in your budget, we take personal responsibility for every detail, and we don't consider a project finished until you sign off on it.

Every lanai and Florida room project is managed directly by our crew — not passed off to subs we've never worked with before. We coordinate the permits, schedule the inspections, and stay in communication with you throughout the build.

Lanai & Florida room FAQ

What's the difference between a lanai and a Florida room?

A lanai is typically screened-in but open to outside air, while a Florida room is fully enclosed with windows or walls and can be climate-controlled year-round. We build both, and can also convert an existing lanai into an insulated Florida room later.

Do I need a permit for a lanai or Florida room addition?

Yes. Any screened enclosure, pool cage, or room addition requires a building permit in Sarasota County, Manatee County, or the applicable municipality. We handle the permitting and engineering as part of every project.

Can you build over an existing patio or pool deck?

In most cases, yes — we evaluate the existing slab and structure during the site visit to confirm it can support the new enclosure, or we'll recommend what needs to be added first.

How long does a lanai or Florida room addition take?

Most screened lanai projects take a few weeks once permitting is approved. Fully insulated Florida rooms with electrical and finish work typically take several weeks to a few months, depending on scope.

What does a lanai or Florida room addition cost in Sarasota, FL?

Screened lanais typically range from $8,000–$25,000 depending on size and framing material. Insulated Florida rooms typically range from $35,000–$85,000 depending on square footage, finishes, and whether HVAC is extended into the space. We provide detailed estimates after a site visit — no surprise charges.
