Location:

Balmoral, QLD

The Problem:

With spectacular views and a love of outdoor living, the McConachie family wanted to protect their verandah space without compromising what made it special. Snakes had been visiting the property, posing a risk to both the family and their small dog. Mosquitoes were making early mornings and late evenings outside uncomfortable. They needed a solution that addressed both concerns while keeping the breeze, the views and that open outdoor feeling fully intact.

The Solution:

Suncoast Outdoor Living installed a custom screen system using a white aluminium frame, carefully selected to complement the home’s existing colour scheme. The screening was designed to keep snakes out and mosquitoes at bay, while preserving the family’s prized views and natural airflow. With a small dog to consider, the enclosure needed to be secure at every point, and the result delivered exactly that.

What We Delivered:

Snake-safe enclosure – Custom screening keeping snakes out and the family and their dog safe
Mosquito-free living – Early mornings and late evenings enjoyed without a bite in sight
Views fully retained – Stunning outlook preserved without compromise
Natural airflow maintained – Cool breeze flows freely through the screened verandah
Colour-matched framing – White aluminium frame selected to complement the home
Year-round usability – Outdoor lifestyle enjoyed safely in every season

The Result:

The McConachie family can now fully enjoy their verandah the way it was always intended. Whether it’s an early morning coffee, a late evening with friends and family, or simply letting their small dog enjoy the outdoors safely, the screen system has removed every barrier without taking anything away from the lifestyle they love. The views are unchanged, the breeze is still there and the snakes and mozzies are not.
