McKinney Elite Patio Covers provides professional pool cages & pool enclosures in McKinney, TX for residential and commercial properties across Collin County. We get asked about full pool cages by people who have moved up from Florida, and the honest answer in McKinney is that the arithmetic does not carry across.
A cage is thousands of square feet of screen on a light aluminum frame, and its largest surface is horizontal and pointed straight up. Nothing else in a back garden presents that shape and that orientation to a hailstorm. A single hard event can perforate the entire roof screen, and rescreening the roof of a full cage is not a modest invoice.
In Florida the cage pays for itself against insects, debris and a swimming season that never really ends. Here the pool season runs a few months, insect pressure is manageable with a screened seating area, and you would be underwriting an annual weather risk on a structure used across a fraction of the calendar. We will build one and we will build it well. We say this part first.
The structure most owners end up happier with is a screened pavilion beside the pool covering the seating and dining area, with the water left open. Far less exposed roof area, a fraction of the screen to replace, and it can carry a solid insulated section over part of the span so there is somewhere to stand when the sky goes green.
If you do want the cage, specify heavier extrusions than the Florida standard, because the wind exposure on these lots is not the same either. Put a solid roof over the lounging end rather than screening the whole span, and accept the rescreen cycle as a running cost.
Screen choice helps at the margin. A heavier polyester mesh will absorb a small stone that shreds standard fibreglass outright, and on the roof panels of a cage that upgrade is worth paying for even though it costs more per square foot.
With 15+ years of experience, our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — heavy-gauge extruded aluminum sections, foam-core insulated roof panels, drilled pier-and-beam footings, bell-bottom concrete piers, hot-dip galvanized standoff post bases, through-bolted and flashed ledger attachment — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve McKinney and nearby communities including Allen, Frisco, Plano, Prosper.

Materials, equipment and how we do pool cages & pool enclosures
The difference between pool cages & pool enclosures that lasts and pool cages & pool enclosures that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with heavy-gauge extruded aluminum sections, foam-core insulated roof panels, drilled pier-and-beam footings, bell-bottom concrete piers, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every McKinney job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. 15+ years of patio cover work in Collin County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
