Screen Enclosure Service Area in Tampa Bay, FL

Towns and permit offices across Tampa Bay, FL

The town on your mailing address does not always decide who issues your pool cage permit; the parcel does. Brandon, Riverview and Wesley Chapel are unincorporated, so the county handles them. Cities such as St. Petersburg, Clearwater and Venice run their own departments, and a few places, like Lutz, Odessa and Lakewood Ranch, straddle a county line. The table lists the office for each town page on this site.

What changes from town to town

Three things vary across the region: wind design, HOA rules and storm exposure. Design wind speeds from the ASCE 7-22 hazard data run from about 138 mph around Wesley Chapel and Spring Hill to about 152 mph at Venice, so the same size cage can need heavier framing in the south. Master-planned communities such as FishHawk Ranch, Seven Oaks, Meadow Pointe and Lakewood Ranch publish their own frame and screen color rules. And Hurricane Milton's 2024 gusts topped 100 mph in Pinellas, Manatee and Sarasota but peaked at 59 mph near Zephyrhills in Pasco, which shows in how much storm repair each area sees.

Each town page covers its own version of these. For the work itself, start with pool cage rescreening, the pool enclosure installation page or the full list of services, and the permit guide for each department's portal. Or request a free quote.
