Jacksonville Beach, FL screen enclosures & outdoor living contractor

Salt air, coastal wind, and year-round sun call for structures built for the beach. We’ve been building them here for more than 25 years.

Outdoor spaces built for life by the ocean.

Living near the water sounds great until you try to sit outside and relax. The sun hits hard. The wind carries salt. Bugs seem to find their way into everything. That is why so many homeowners in Jacksonville Beach turn to us—Screen Enclosures by Colonial Construction builds outdoor spaces designed to handle life right by the ocean, with more than 25 years of experience crafting structures that stand up to Florida’s coastal climate.

We focus on one thing: building spaces you can actually use. Not just on the nice days—all year long.

Sandy shorelines, open neighborhoods, and a life lived outside.

Jacksonville Beach sits right on the water. Sandy shorelines stretch for miles, neighborhoods feel open and welcoming, and people here live outside as much as they can. The weather stays warm, the sun shines bright, and yards become gathering spots for family and friends.

Coastal living comes with challenges, though. Salt air eats away at metal that is not built to handle it. Humidity makes materials swell and warp if they are not chosen carefully. Winds coming off the ocean put stress on screens and frames. Homes here often have patios, pools, and backyards meant for daily use, and families want comfort during hot afternoons and humid evenings—plus protection from insects that stay active all year.

A well-built screen enclosure or lanai changes how you experience your outdoor space. It takes the problems out of the equation so you can focus on enjoying where you live.

Framing and screening that holds up to the beach.

We build screen enclosures that do exactly what they are supposed to do: keep bugs and debris out and let fresh air flow through. The framing we use holds steady when coastal winds pick up, and screens stay tight instead of sagging over time. These enclosures turn patios and pool areas into spaces where you can eat, gather, or just sit quietly without dealing with the things that usually send you back inside.

Lanais serve a different purpose—shelter from the sun without closing you off from the outdoors. Shade makes a huge difference when the afternoon heat kicks in, and many families treat these spaces as an extension of their main living area: morning coffee, kids playing out of direct sun, evening conversations that stretch on because no one wants to go inside.

Sunrooms offer something else entirely. You get natural light pouring in, clear views of your yard, and protection from humidity, salt air, and insects. We build them with strong framing and materials made for coastal conditions, so the space works through every season, no matter what the weather looks like.

Before we start building, we take time to understand your property. Where does the sun hit hardest? How does the wind move through your yard? What layout makes sense for how you live? Every project gets planned around the home’s layout and the direction of the sea breeze.

Franky at Colonial made the whole process simple. He helped us design our Lenai extension, talked us through all the options, and handled all the HOA and St John's County paperwork for us. The end result looks amazing. I would highly recommend Colonial.

When you recently decided to add a screen room to the back of our house. We reached out to several companies, but came back to Colonial Construction/Screen Room. They came out. They provided the quote. They provided all the information on permitting when they could start and can happily say that they followed through on everything the gentleman that installed The screened room was very meticulous taking his time to ensure everything went together correctly. We couldn’t be happier can’t wait to enjoy our new screened in room.

Colonial Construction did an excellent job- removing the wood deck and building a screen room with an insulated Gable roof on a concrete slab. Communication was great. We were informed through the entire process. We are completely satisfied with the end result. We highly recommend this company.
