Permits and HOAs in Punta Gorda

Inside Punta Gorda city limits, building permits come from the City of Punta Gorda through its Building Division. Some homes with a Punta Gorda mailing address sit outside city limits, and those are permitted by Charlotte County instead.

New enclosures and structural work are engineered for your home and site, and they are permitted before the build. Many Punta Gorda communities and HOAs also require architectural approval before exterior changes, so check your community’s rules early.

A recent Punta Gorda project

In March 2026 we built a front entry and garage screen system for a Punta Gorda home. It is one of the projects you can look through on our work pages.

Punta Gorda sits on the south side of Charlotte Harbor, across the Peace River from Port Charlotte.

Rated 4.9 out of 5 on Google.

Fantastic 5-star service from Back Water Aluminum! Austin repaired torn screens on our pool cage; he reattached and straightened wind-damaged framing, and fixed our loose gutter guards. Austin also adjusted our front screen door, which was scraping along the concrete (no more scratching). Punctual, skilled, and honest work from start to finish. We are happy and definitely recommend Austin from Back Water Aluminum!

We had the screen roof taken off our Lani and a solid roof put in. What a difference. Austin and his crew went above and beyond. Great professional work. So good that we then had them screen in our entry way. Complete with a 4' custom screen door. I would recommend them to anyone.

Austin & his men did a beautiful job creating & building our lanai. We love it! Planning the job, scheduling & completion went seamlessly. I highly recommend this business. Thank you

So happy we chose Backwater Aluminum. Austin and his team installed our front door enclosure and re-screened our lanai. They are professional, courteous and very friendly. Austin explained everything about the products he was using and the install. We couldn't be happier with the finished product.
