Default screen porch standing water

wrote:
hi, bought a new house here in FL, I have a long screen porch with
aluminum around the bottom, about 1 inch..
when it really rains I end up with a lot of standing water in one
corner.. I am thinking of drilling 2 holes, one on each side of corner
to drain.. any one know a better way??
thanks
Jack

Does the aluminum have weep holes on outside? If so, I would cut slots
opposite those on the inside. Any chance you have weep holes inside and
they are just plugged or blocked by the screen frame? Sliding door or
just stationary screens?
