Completed Screen Room Project in Abita Springs, Louisiana
Screen Room in Abita Springs, LA with White Bahama Breeze Screen Walls and Aluminum Patio Cover
Southern Home Improvement Center completed a custom screen room project in Abita Springs, LA, turning an older patio cover area into a cleaner, more durable, and more usable outdoor living space. The project included demolition of the existing patio cover, new concrete foundation work, a custom Southern Sun Room Bahama Breeze screen wall system, and a Southern Shademaker heavy-duty structural aluminum patio cover.
A Screen Room Built for a Northshore Backyard
This Abita Springs project was planned as a complete outdoor living upgrade, not just a screen wall installation. The existing patio cover was removed, the base was improved with new concrete, and the new screened area was designed to work with the home’s backyard access, drainage needs, and daily use.
The finished screen room gives the homeowners a more comfortable place to relax, dine, entertain, and enjoy fresh air with better protection from mosquitoes, leaves, direct sun, and wind-driven rain. The white finish keeps the structure bright and visually connected to the home exterior.
Project Scope at a Glance
Removal
Existing patio cover removed and hauled away before the new construction began.
Concrete Work
New concrete foundation section installed, approximately 2 ft. × 33.5 ft.
Screen Walls
Custom Southern Sun Room Bahama Breeze screen wall system, approximately 33.5 ft. long.
Patio Cover
Southern Shademaker heavy-duty structural flat pan aluminum cover, approximately 11 ft. × 30 ft.
Patio Cover Removal and Concrete Foundation Installation
The project began with removing and hauling away the existing patio cover. Clearing the older structure allowed the new screen room and aluminum cover to be built around a cleaner, more reliable footprint.
After demolition, the crew furnished and installed a new concrete foundation section measuring approximately 2 ft. × 33.5 ft. This added support created a stable and continuous base for the new screen wall system while improving the overall layout and finished look of the patio area.
The new concrete work also helped the screen room integrate more naturally with the existing home and backyard access points. For a long screen wall run, that base detail matters because it affects alignment, drainage, durability, and daily use.
White Bahama Breeze Screen Wall System
For the screened walls, the project used a custom-manufactured Southern Sun Room Bahama Breeze system measuring approximately 33.5 feet in length. The white finish gives the enclosure a clean, classic appearance and helps the new work feel connected to the home exterior.
A professionally built screen room allows homeowners in Abita Springs to enjoy outdoor space without fully closing off the patio. The area still feels open and breezy, but the perimeter is more defined, more protected, and easier to use.
Southern Shademaker Heavy-Duty Aluminum Patio Cover
The overhead structure for this project is a Southern Shademaker heavy-duty structural flat pan aluminum patio cover measuring approximately 11 ft. × 30 ft. The cover was installed in white to match the screen wall system and support a unified finished appearance.
Helps manage runoff during heavy Louisiana rain.
Add a cleaner finished edge to the patio cover.
Support future ceiling fan planning and improved airflow.
Provide a durable, lower-maintenance cover for outdoor living.
Unlike a traditional wood patio cover, a structural aluminum system resists moisture-related deterioration and requires less routine maintenance. That is especially important in a humid Northshore setting where outdoor materials face heat, rain, insects, and seasonal storm exposure.
Why This Screen Room Fits Abita Springs and the Northshore
Outdoor living areas in Abita Springs, Covington, Mandeville, Madisonville, Lacombe, and nearby St. Tammany Parish communities have to deal with humidity, afternoon heat, heavy rainfall, seasonal storms, and constant insect activity. A well-planned screen room helps turn a patio into a space that can be used more often throughout the year.
For this home, the combination of a Bahama Breeze screen wall system, a white Southern Shademaker aluminum patio cover, integrated gutters, and fan-ready beams created a practical upgrade that improves comfort without making the space feel enclosed or heavy.
What the Completed Screen Room Improves
More shade and a more defined patio area for everyday use.
Screened walls keep the space open while reducing common outdoor interruptions.
The enclosure helps reduce exposure to mosquitoes, leaves, and drifting debris.
The integrated gutter system helps manage runoff during Louisiana rainstorms.
The double entry door makes movement between the patio and yard easier.
The white aluminum system gives the outdoor area a cleaner, more intentional look.
