How Much Does Screen Enclosure Cost in Hollywood?
Aluminum screen rooms for pools and patios are priced by enclosed square footage plus the cost of mesh, roof panels, and doors. Taller spans and heavy-duty framing increase both material and labor multipliers. Many homeowner projects end up near $1,500–$15,000 depending on size and upgrades.
Cost Factors:
- Frame type — standard extrusions cost less per square foot than heavy-duty or vinyl-coated systems rated for wind and coastal exposure
- Mesh choice — no-see-um, pet, and solar meshes carry higher material rates than basic fiberglass
- Roof geometry — flat panels are simpler than gable or cathedral roofs, which need more structure and flashing detail
- Height — standard pool-cage heights keep labor efficient; taller or two-story cages need more bracing and lift time
- Doors and permits — sliding or double units and local permit fees are additive line items on top of the screened area
In Hollywood, home improvement costs are 7% below the national average. This reflects local labor rates, material availability, and cost of living in the Hollywood metro area.
