Screen repair
A torn screen is not a reason for a new window.
Mesh rips, frames bend, and pets lean on the same corner until it gives. If the window still opens and locks, we repair the screen and leave the glass alone.
We look at the frame you have. A straight frame gets new mesh. A bent frame gets a new screen. If the sash or the lock is the real problem, we say so.
Windows • Screens
Screens on the windows that are already in the house.
The screen
What the visit usually is.
Bring us the room and what happened to the screen. One window or a whole floor, we measure at the house and match the frame that is there.
New mesh
When the frame is still straight
The old spline comes out, the mesh goes on tight, and the screen goes back in the track or on the clips.
A new frame
When the corners are split or the frame is bent
Rescreening a twisted frame just tears again. We make a screen to the opening instead of forcing the old one.
Window or patio
Hung, slider, casement, and patio doors
The hardware differs. A casement screen is not a slider screen. We fit the one that belongs on that opening.
Questions
Before you book the screen.
- Do you come to the house?
- Yes. Screens are measured on site. A width taken from memory is how they come back too tight or too loose.
- Can you match a heavier mesh?
- Standard mesh is the usual repair. If you want a heavier mesh, tell us before the visit and we will say whether we can get it for that frame.
- What if the window itself is the problem?
- A screen will not fix fogged glass, a sash that will not stay up, or a lock that misses. That is a window repair, and we will tell you on the same look. See window repair
- How many can you do at once?
- One screen or a set. Tell us how many when you book so we bring enough mesh and frame.
