A screen that will not sit flat, pops out in the wind, or rattles in the track usually has a frame problem, not a mesh problem. We repair the parts that fail most and build new frames when the old one is done.
Corner keys, pull tabs, springs, and rollers are straightforward replacements. Mild bows can be straightened. Once a rail is creased or a corner has snapped through, a new frame is the honest answer: we measure the opening, build the screen to size, and fit it with the mesh of your choice. Custom sizes are not a problem, which matters on larger custom homes and older houses with odd openings.
Every frame repair is quoted before we start. If a screen is not worth repairing, we will say so.
Sliding door screens take the most abuse in the house and are the most common frame we rebuild. Screened porch panels are handled one panel at a time so the porch stays usable. Both can be done during a regular screen repair visit.
Often, yes. A gentle bow straightens and holds. A creased or kinked rail does not, and we will recommend a new frame built to size instead of a repair that fails in a month.
Yes. Those are the most common reason a screen is hard to remove or falls out. We carry standard tabs and tension springs and replace them as part of the repair.
Usually it is the rollers, sometimes a bent bottom rail. Both are repairable. If the frame is twisted we rebuild it.
Yes. We measure the opening and build a new screen to fit, including sizes that are no longer sold off the shelf.
