Pool cage cleaning in St. Petersburg
Frame, screens and deck cleaned from both sides, at a pressure the screen can take.
Sound familiar?
Is this your house?
Black along the top rails
Mildew sits on the horizontals and in the corners where water stands.
Green haze on the screens
Algae in the mesh. Soap and a gentle rinse lift it.
Screens that popped last time
A wand at full pressure pushes the spline out. Re-screening costs far more than the wash.
On the job
What you get back
A frame without the black along the rails, clear screens, and a deck you can walk on barefoot.
- Screens left in the spline
- Frame treated, not blasted
- Pool water kept clean
How we do it
A pool cage clean, in order
Pool covered or protected
Run-off directed away so nothing lands in the water.
Frame treated
Soap on the rails and corners, given time to work.
Screens by hand
Soft brush and low pressure, from inside and out.
Deck last
So the dirt from above doesn’t land on a clean deck.
What it costs
What decides the price of a pool cage clean
Every job is priced on a written estimate after somebody has looked at the surfaces. These are the things that move the number.
The cage size
Height and the number of panels.
How much growth
A yearly clean is quick. A few years’ worth takes longer.
The deck underneath
Pavers, travertine or cool deck, cleaned at the same visit.
The details
For the people who want every step
Screens come clean with soap, not force
The mesh is cleaned chemically and rinsed at low pressure. Hit it with a wand and it either tears or pops the spline, and re-screening a cage costs many times what the wash did.
The frame is where the black streaks live
Mildew sits on the top of the horizontals and in the corners. It gets treated and given time, then rinsed from both sides so the run-off does not just move it onto the deck.
The deck at the same time
The lanai deck is usually the point of the whole job. It gets a surface cleaner where it is concrete and a gentler approach where it is pavers or coping.

What people ask us about this
Will you damage my screens?
Not at the pressure we use. Screens are cleaned with soap and a soft rinse, never a close wand.
Do I need to do anything to the pool?
Run the pump as normal. We keep the run-off out of the water and tell you if anything splashed in.
Can you fix torn screens?
We don’t re-screen. We’ll photograph any tears before we start so you can get them fixed.
