Clay County summers have a way of reminding you why screened outdoor living exists. The heat rolls in early, the humidity follows close behind, and the insects treat unprotected patios like open invitations.
Orange Park homeowners who want to use their backyards without the battle tend to invest in a structure that works with the Florida climate instead of against it. Colonial Construction has been building lanai enclosures in Orange Park, FL, for over 25 years.
Professional Lanai Enclosure Design and Build Services in Orange Park
At Orange Park, communities like Fleming Island, Argyle Forest, and Eagle Harbor have lots with plenty of room to work with, and our team has installed lanais throughout them.
A lanai enclosure gives your outdoor space a permanent sense of purpose. The aluminum framing creates a defined perimeter, the screening keeps insects and debris out, and the roof system adds shade and rain protection so the space stays usable even on unpredictable Florida afternoons. We custom-size every build to your property’s footprint and your home’s architecture, so the finished product looks naturally integrated.
Our lanai enclosure builds in Orange Park typically include:
- Custom aluminum framing: Sized to your space and powder-coated to complement your home’s exterior color and trim
- High-performance fiberglass screening: Durable enough to handle Florida humidity, sun exposure, and the occasional storm
- Roof panel options: Solid insulated panels work well for year-round comfort and rain protection; we’ll walk you through what suits your usage
- Door placement: Configured around your existing landscaping, pool access, or primary entry points
- Full permit coordination: Clay County has specific structural requirements, and we handle the documentation from submission to approval
What’s Included in Our Lanai Enclosure Services
Getting a lanai built in Orange Park involves more than picking materials and scheduling a crew. Local permitting, HOA considerations in communities like Fleming Island Estates, and the site-specific challenges of building around existing landscaping all factor into the process. Our team manages all of it.
Here’s what the full process looks like when you work with us:
- Free On-Site Estimate: We visit your Orange Park property, take accurate measurements, and talk through how you plan to use the space before recommending anything.
- Design and Material Selection: You choose the roof style, screening type, and door layout with guidance from our team. We offer options that suit your home’s look and the demands of the local climate.
- Permit Handling: We submit, track, and manage all permit paperwork with Clay County on your behalf. You don’t need to deal with the county office or follow up on approvals yourself.
- Professional Build: Our crew works cleanly and carefully around your existing yard, landscaping, and any adjacent structures, such as pool decks or covered patios.
- Final Walkthrough and Guarantee: We go through the completed project with you and stand behind the workmanship. If anything needs attention after installation, we come back and handle it.

- FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a lanai enclosure different from a basic screened porch?
A lanai enclosure typically involves a more structured roofing system, heavier framing, and materials chosen to handle long-term outdoor exposure. A screened porch is often a simpler attachment to an existing structure. Lanai in Florida is usually designed as a more permanent outdoor room.
Can a lanai enclosure be added around an existing pool in Orange Park?
Yes, and it’s one of the most common requests we get in Orange Park. We regularly build lanai enclosures around pools, coordinating framing around existing deck surfaces, equipment access points, and any existing fence lines. The permit process through Clay County covers pool enclosure work, and we manage all of that documentation.
Will a lanai enclosure add value to my Orange Park home?
Outdoor living additions consistently increase home value in Northeast Florida, where buyers actively seek functional outdoor spaces. A professionally permitted and installed lanai enclosure adds usable square footage, improves curb appeal, and tends to stand out in listings in communities where outdoor space is a selling point.

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.Posted on Google![]()

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.Posted on Google![]()
