Pool Cage & Pool Deck Cleaning in Pinellas County, FL
Pool cage cleaning is a low-pressure wash of your screen enclosure: the mesh, framing, kick plates, and deck that collect pollen, love bugs, and mildew film in Pinellas County's humid air. The method is chosen for the screen mesh, spline, painted aluminum, coating, and condition we document on site. Cool Breeze has cleaned Tampa Bay enclosures since 1999.

Why pool cages turn green so fast in Florida
Screen mesh, shaded framing, and deck surfaces can collect pollen, dirt, and visible organic buildup in Florida's humid climate. What builds up on a given enclosure depends on its material, coating, tree cover, shade, drainage, salt exposure, and maintenance. Cleaning deals with visible buildup. Questions about structural condition, paint, fasteners, or screen life need a separate qualified inspection.
How we clean pool enclosures
Screen panels: pressure, product, dwell time, and rinsing are chosen for the documented mesh, spline, age, and condition. Brittle or damaged parts may be excluded until they are repaired.
Aluminum framing and kick plates: the method allows for paint or powder coating, oxidation, damaged finishes, and visible buildup.
Pool decks: concrete or paver cleaning is proposed based on the material, coating, joint condition, drainage, and the stains or buildup we see.
Pool and landscape precautions: the scope should document overspray and runoff controls, landscape rinsing, product directions, and customer preparation.
What pool cage and deck cleaning costs
Cool Breeze's starting estimates begin at $185 for a small lanai cage and $165 for a small pool deck. The written quote controls, and the price varies with size, height, access, material, condition, treatment, and the cage, screen, deck, or furniture surfaces included. These aren't Tampa Bay market averages. See our pricing methodology or call 727-584-6622.
Request one scope for multiple exterior surfaces
Pool deck cleaning is included at no added charge with any pool cage cleaning Cool Breeze quotes. The proposal lists the covered cage, screen, frame, and deck surfaces, plus the method, precautions, exclusions, schedule, and price. A house wash or roof cleaning can be added as a separate line item.

What limits the method on a screen enclosure
| Enclosure component | Application usually proposed | What limits the method |
|---|---|---|
| Screen mesh | Low pressure, under 100 PSI, applied as a solution, not a jet | Mesh age and brittleness; existing tears are recorded before work, not corrected by it |
| Spline and channel | Solution and rinse only | Dried or shrunken spline can release mesh under any pressure |
| Aluminum framing | Low pressure with products chosen for the finish | Powder-coat condition, oxidation, and fastener corrosion |
| Pool deck inside the cage | Surface cleaner where the deck material allows | Deck material, coatings, and drainage back toward the pool |
| Pool water and equipment | Covered or diverted per the product label | Label directions for runoff near pool water, plantings, and equipment |
On setting pressure for a cage
On an enclosure the screen is always the weakest thing on the property. I set pressure for the spline and the mesh, not for the dirt, and I write down the tears I find before I start so nobody wonders afterwards.
Pool cage cleaning FAQs
How much does pool cage cleaning cost in Pinellas County?
Cool Breeze's starting estimates begin at $185 for a small lanai cage and $165 for a small pool deck. The written quote controls, and the price varies with size, height, access, material, condition, treatment, and the cage, screen, deck, or furniture surfaces included. These aren't Tampa Bay market averages. See our pricing methodology or call 727-584-6622.
Will pressure washing tear my pool screens?
Too much pressure can tear mesh, loosen spline, or affect coatings. Cool Breeze checks the material and visible condition, then documents the proposed pressure, products, test areas, precautions, and exclusions. Damaged or brittle parts may need a repair evaluation instead of cleaning.
How often should a pool cage be cleaned in Florida?
There's no universal interval. Schedule cleaning by visible buildup and by the enclosure's screen, frame, coating, shade, tree cover, salt exposure, drainage, and manufacturer care guidance.
Is the cleaning solution safe for my pool and plants?
The written scope should list the product-label directions, dilution, overspray and runoff controls, landscape rinsing, and precautions for pool water, people, pets, and plants.
Tell us about sensitive landscaping and pool-system needs before you accept the quote; no cleaning process can promise zero exposure or risk.
Can you clean the pool deck at the same time?
Yes. Pool deck cleaning is included at no added charge with any pool cage cleaning Cool Breeze quotes. The written quote lists the cage, screen, frame, and covered pool deck surfaces, along with the proposed methods, precautions, and exclusions.
Do you clean cool decks and Kool Deck surfaces?
Yes. Cool deck, the textured acrylic coating on many Florida pool decks, is cleaned at low pressure with a product chosen for the coating. A high-pressure surface cleaner can lift and pit the texture, so we do not use one on it.
The written scope names the coating as documented on site, the proposed pressure, and the exclusions. Coatings that are already worn, chalking, or patched can shed during any cleaning, so we note those areas before you accept the work.
