We do not want to enclose the lanai nor spend a lot of money...do you think it would help to get some pieces of sheet metal and cover the bottom of the screens?

I wouldn't. Buy a cheap awning at Lowes.

Inexpensive thin plexiglass works very well. You can make it as high as you want, and can’t see it from the outside.

Does the rain not come through the top of the screens also?

[jayerose]

Not sure; there is some rain on top of our high table.

This got to be a joke!

[jayerose]

It may have splashed from one of the edgings...please be nice.

Pictures would help to add in this conversation

Screened lanai not designed or intended to keep out rain.
Yes, must be a joke…………

If it's water splashing off the ground, look into getting gutters...

I'm sure the neighbors would love it.

I do not know what your ground cover is, but pine straw seems to keep water from splashing back up.

and I wonder hasn't this condition been present from day 1 ?

[Rwirish]

This is a good joke.

No such thing as inexpensive Plexiglas in the lengths needed to prevent rain from coming in a lanai. Plus it will yellow and crack in Florida elements.
