You want your pool cage to look new again, not chalky, streaked, or spotted with rust. We softwash the frame, treat the rust and lay down two coats, with a same-day written price and no payment until you’re happy.
A faded cage is more than a looks problem. Once the paint chalks and the coating wears thin, the aluminum frame is open to the weather. In our climate, that means rust creeps into the screws, the corners, and the spots where water sits. Left alone, those small rust spots spread and stain the screens and the deck below them.
Wait too long and the fix gets bigger. A frame you could have cleaned and refinished this year may need welding or section replacement later. And a tired cage drags down the whole back of your home, the part you actually sit in. Refinishing now protects the metal, keeps the job small, and lifts your whole yard. It costs less to keep a good frame looking good than to rescue one that’s gone too far.
We refinish the screen enclosures common across Central Florida, whether they cover a pool, a lanai, or a bird cage over an open patio. If it’s an aluminum frame that’s faded, chalky, or rusting, we can bring it back.
Need the outside of the house handled at the same time? We do that too, and doing both on one visit keeps your colors matched and your trips down to one. See our exterior painting and pressure washing and softwash services.
Prep is where a cage job is won or lost. We start with a softwash, which is a low-pressure wash with the right cleaners. It lifts the mildew, chalk, and grime off the aluminum without blasting the screens or driving water where it shouldn’t go. High pressure alone can dent screens and leave the surface too slick to hold paint, so we clean it the way the metal needs.
Once it’s clean and dry, we hand-check every joint. Rust spots get sanded and treated so they don’t bleed back through. We wipe the frame down so the coating grips bare, clean metal. Then, and only then, do we paint. It’s the same caulk-and-tape care we put into a full house repaint. Skip the prep and the new finish peels in a season. Do it right and it holds.

Screen enclosures and pool areas from real McWilliams jobs.
McWilliams Painting refinishes pool cages and bird cages across Lake, Sumter and Marion County, Florida. We softwash the frame, hand-prep and treat rust, then apply two coats for a crisp, even finish that stands up to the Florida sun. You get a same-day written price, a foreman-and-customer walk-through, and no payment until you’re happy.
Here’s how we stand behind it. Our exterior paintwork carries a, and we do a one-year follow-up call to make sure it’s still holding the way it should. You don’t pay until you’re happy with the finished cage. Before we close out, our foreman walks the job with you so anything you want touched up gets touched up first. That’s the whole point: quality over quantity, and a painter who calls back a year later.
He’ll tell you straight: get a few estimates and compare them. We’re not the cheapest bid in the driveway, and we don’t try to be. We’re the higher-end job with the prep, the two coats, and the warranty. That’s who we’re for.
You can reach McWilliams Painting at 35247 Janice Drive, Fruitland Park, FL 34731, or call (352) 626-8007. If your cage is faded, chalky, or starting to rust, we’ll come give you an honest look and a written price.
We put two coats on the frame, not one, so the color is even and the film is thick enough to stand up to the sun. We use a coating built for exterior aluminum, and we cut clean lines where the frame meets the screen so you get crisp edges instead of overspray on the mesh.
Our exterior paintwork is backed by our 7-year peel-and-chip warranty, and about a year after the job we call to make sure everything is holding up.
McWilliams Painting is owned by Weston McWilliams, who’s been in the trade since 2012. He built crews that have stayed with him six-plus years, so the same hands that prep your cage know how to finish it. Weston’s married with kids and runs the business out of Fruitland Park, and he’s a member of BNI and BEST 352 here in the area.

You want your pool cage to look new again, not chalky, streaked, or spotted with rust. If the frame has faded in the Florida sun and the screens are dull, you don’t need a whole tear-out. You need a painter who cleans it right, preps every joint, and lays down a finish that lasts. That’s what we do. McWilliams Painting refinishes pool cages and bird cages across Lake, Sumter and Marion County, and we’ve painted 2,000 to 3,000 homes in The Villages alone. You’ll get a same-day written price, straight clean lines, and no payment until you’re happy with it. Let’s take a look and give you an honest number.
Straight answers. If yours is not here, give us a call.
We answer the phone and give you a straight answer.
(352) 626-8007Yes. We sand and treat rust spots before we coat so they don't bleed back through the new finish. If the rust is only on the surface and the aluminum is still sound, refinishing brings it back. If a section has corroded through, we'll tell you straight and point you toward welding or replacement first.
Done with proper softwash prep and two coats, a refinished cage holds its color for years against the Florida sun. Our exterior work carries a 7-year peel-and-chip warranty, and we do a one-year follow-up to make sure it's still holding the way it should.
Always. We softwash with low pressure and the right cleaners to lift mildew, chalk, and grime without denting screens or driving water into the frame. Clean, dry metal is the only way a new finish grips and lasts.
It depends on the size of the enclosure, the amount of rust, and the finish you want. That's why we give a same-day written price after we look at it, not a guess over the phone. The estimate is free and there's no pressure.
Yes. We match bronze, white, and other common frame tones to your home and trim. If we're painting the exterior at the same time, we keep everything coordinated in one visit.
No. We refinish the aluminum frame and cut clean lines where it meets the mesh, so you don't get overspray on the screens. Refinishing is about the frame, not the screen material itself.
No. You don't pay until you're happy with the finished cage. Our foreman walks the job with you first and handles any touch-ups before you sign off.
Yes. We refinish bird cages, lanai enclosures, and screen enclosures the same way we do pool cages, with a softwash, rust treatment, and two coats for an even finish.
