Leesburg is one of Lake County’s larger and older cities, set between Orlando and Ocala on the Harris Chain of Lakes. Framed by Lake Harris and Lake Griffin, it is a longtime hub for bass fishing, Venetian Gardens, and the annual Leesburg Bikefest. With so much of the city built around water, pool owners here deal with heavy insect pressure and constant debris, which makes a screen enclosure one of the more practical upgrades a Leesburg homeowner can make.
The climate is classic Central Florida: long humid summers, afternoon thunderstorms most days in the wet season, pollen-heavy springs, and tropical systems that cross the peninsula each year. Lakefront lots see especially high mosquito activity. An aluminum pool cage from CRA keeps a Leesburg pool clean, keeps biting insects off the patio, and turns an open pool deck into a screened outdoor room you can actually use through the summer.
From established neighborhoods near downtown and Venetian Gardens to newer communities on the outskirts, Leesburg homeowners share the same goal: a pool that is easy to keep clean and comfortable to sit beside. The city’s warm-season insect activity makes an open deck hard to enjoy in the evenings, which is when people most want to be outside. A screened enclosure solves that, extending the hours you can actually use the pool.
- Blocks mosquitoes and no-see-ums driven by the Harris Chain of Lakes.
- Keeps leaves, pollen, and debris out of the water.
- Reduces weekly cleaning time and chemical use.
- Provides a code-compliant pool safety barrier.
- Filters harsh UV and cools the patio surface.
- Adds a comfortable outdoor room for year-round use.
The Best Pool Cages in Leesburg by Commercial Residential Aluminum
Commercial Residential Aluminum brings more than 25 years of experience engineering and installing pool enclosures throughout Florida. Our patented ChannelLock SMB framing and ScenicView screen enclosures are built and tested for Florida wind loads, and on Leesburg’s lakefront properties they stand up to open, wind-exposed sites while keeping the view of the water clear.
Every CRA project is custom-designed for the property, engineered in-house, and installed by our own crews. That continuity from design through installation is how we deliver enclosures that look right on the home and hold up over the long term. We also handle repairs, rescreening, and storm damage restoration, so an aging cage on an established Leesburg home does not automatically mean a full replacement.

FAQs
Q1: Do lakefront homes in Leesburg need stronger enclosures?
Open, wind-exposed lakefront lots are engineered to the same Florida Building Code wind load standards as any other site, and CRA’s in-house team calculates and stamps the drawings for your specific location so the structure is built for real conditions.
Q2: How much does a pool cage cut down on lake-driven mosquitoes?
A properly screened enclosure keeps mosquitoes and no-see-ums off the pool deck almost entirely, which is a meaningful difference on the Harris Chain where insect pressure runs high most of the year.
Q3: Can CRA rescreen or repair an older Leesburg pool cage?
Yes. If the aluminum frame is sound and only the screens or fasteners are worn, a rescreen or repair is far cheaper than replacement. If the structure has reached the end of its life, we can design a code-compliant replacement.
