Port St Lucie Lanai Sunrooms & Patios is a licensed sunroom contractor serving Hobe Sound homeowners with solarium installations, screen rooms, and patio enclosures - all permitted through Martin County and specified for the salt-air exposure that homes near the Intracoastal Waterway and Atlantic coast face year-round. We have been working on Treasure Coast properties since 2016 and reply to every new inquiry within one business day.
Hobe Sound properties sit close to the Atlantic and Intracoastal Waterway, and many homeowners want a room that brings in maximum natural light without opening the house to salt air and insects. Our solarium installation work specifies coastal-rated glazing and framing so the room performs for years, not just the first season or two.
Hobe Sound borders Jonathan Dickinson State Park, and the insects that come with living close to natural Florida scrub and waterways make an unscreened outdoor space genuinely uncomfortable from spring through fall. A properly framed screen room - rated for Martin County wind loads - gives you a usable outdoor living area every evening without the bugs and without the UV damage that open patios accumulate.
Many Hobe Sound homes built in the 1980s and 1990s have covered concrete slabs that were originally screened or left open - and after 30 or more years in a coastal environment, the original framing is often corroded or failing. Enclosing an existing slab is typically more cost-effective than building new, and on a Hobe Sound lot, that existing footprint is usually well-positioned to capture the afternoon breeze.
For Hobe Sound homeowners who want a low-maintenance room that holds up to coastal conditions, vinyl-frame sunrooms are a strong option. Vinyl does not oxidize the way standard aluminum does in salt air, does not need painting, and does not show the white powdering that coastal aluminum develops within a few years of installation in this environment.
Hobe Sound summers push temperatures into the low 90s with intense afternoon sun, and without shade over the patio slab, outdoor furniture and flooring deteriorate quickly. A solid patio cover also creates a usable transition zone between the house and the yard that works even during the frequent afternoon thunderstorms that run through this part of Martin County from May through September.
Hobe Sound draws a significant number of seasonal residents who want a fully climate-controlled room they can use comfortably during both winter visits and summer stays. A four season sunroom with insulated glass and a proper HVAC connection gives you a room that is comfortable in both January and July - which is the standard Hobe Sound homeowners expect from an investment of this size.
Hobe Sound is an unincorporated community in Martin County sitting between Jupiter and Stuart, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the east and Jonathan Dickinson State Park to the west. The salt air here is a genuine maintenance factor - homes within a mile or two of the Intracoastal Waterway see aluminum corrode, rubber seals fail, and standard screen mesh degrade noticeably faster than in inland Florida markets. Most of the housing stock was built between the 1960s and the 2000s, and on homes that are 30 or more years old, the original screened enclosures and patio structures are often at or past the end of their useful life. Replacing corroded framing with properly specified coastal materials is not an upgrade - it is catching up to where the home should have been maintained all along.
Martin County applies Florida Building Code wind-load requirements that reflect the coastal exposure of this area, and any permitted sunroom or enclosure project here needs structural drawings and wind-load calculations that meet those standards. Hobe Sound also has a meaningful seasonal population - homes that sit empty from spring through fall accumulate deferred maintenance and UV damage that owners often discover when they return in the fall. Getting a new screen room or solarium permitted and installed before the winter season is something a lot of seasonal homeowners plan around, and understanding that timing matters when you are scheduling a project.
Our crew works throughout Hobe Sound regularly, and we pull permits through Martin County Building and Permitting Services for every job in this community. We know what a complete Martin County application requires for a solarium or screen room - the engineered drawings, the wind-load calculations, and the product specifications - and we put together applications that move through review without getting kicked back for missing information.
Most of Hobe Sound is reached via US-1 running north-south along the coastal corridor, with Bridge Road connecting the mainland to the barrier island area near Hobe Sound National Wildlife Refuge. Many of the residential streets run off Gomez Road and Old Dixie Highway through quiet single-family neighborhoods with larger lots and mature trees - the kind of properties where patio slabs have been sitting open for years and are overdue for a proper enclosure.
We also work regularly in Indiantown to the west, as well as in Palm City to the north. If your neighbors have had sunroom or enclosure work done recently in this part of Martin County, there is a good chance we have been on their job site.
Reach us by phone or through the contact form and describe what you are thinking. We reply to every new inquiry within one business day - and for most Hobe Sound homeowners, a brief phone call is enough to figure out whether an on-site visit makes sense.
We come to your Hobe Sound property, look at the existing slab or structure, assess the salt-air exposure level and soil conditions, and discuss options that fit your budget. You get a written estimate before any commitment - no surprise costs once work starts.
We prepare and submit the Martin County permit application with complete structural drawings and wind-load calculations. If your neighborhood has HOA requirements, we handle that documentation in parallel to avoid delays. You do not need to manage either process yourself.
Once permits are approved, we schedule the construction phase - most Hobe Sound enclosures and screen rooms take two to four weeks of active work. We walk through the finished room with you before we leave the site and address any questions on the spot.
We serve Hobe Sound and all of Martin County. Free on-site estimates. No obligation.
Hobe Sound is an unincorporated coastal community in Martin County with a population of roughly 14,000 to 15,000 people. It sits along the Atlantic coastal corridor between Jupiter to the south and Stuart to the north, with the Intracoastal Waterway running through its eastern edge. The housing stock is a mix of modest single-family homes on larger inland lots built from the 1960s through the 1980s and more substantial waterfront and near-beach properties in the higher price ranges. The community has a quiet, unincorporated character that long-term residents value - Martin County has intentionally limited the pace of development compared to neighboring Palm Beach County, which keeps the density lower and the lots more spacious than what you find further south.
Jonathan Dickinson State Park borders Hobe Sound to the west and north, covering more than 11,000 acres along the Loxahatchee River - one of Florida's designated Wild and Scenic Rivers. The park brings a natural, semi-rural feel to the western parts of the community and is a regular draw for residents who kayak, camp, and fish in the area. To the east, the barrier island hosts Hobe Sound National Wildlife Refuge, protecting sea turtle nesting beaches and natural dunes. Homeowners in this community tend to be long-term owners who invest in their properties and care about the quality of work done on them. We also serve nearby Jensen Beach and Stuart, both of which share the same coastal conditions and permit authority that apply in Hobe Sound.
