Get matched with top screen repair technicians in Milpitas, CA

The cost of a window repair varies significantly depending on which part is damaged. Here is a breakdown of common repairs and their estimated costs:

• Broken seal or fogginess between panes: $70–$245

• Cracked pane: $40–$100

• Broken glass: $200–$2,000

• Sash, seal, or track repair: $200–$600

• Latch or hardware issues: $75–$200

• Broken window frame: $175–$1,000

• Window screen replacement: $140–$480

The screen material you choose depends on your needs. Here are some differences to consider:

• Fiberglass is the least expensive but needs replacing more often.

• Aluminum suits almost any job and doesn’t stretch as easily as fiberglass. 

• Pet-resistant screens are more expensive than fiberglass or aluminum, but they’re also wind and weather-resistant. 

• Metal screens, like stainless steel, are the most expensive material for rescreening your porch or sunroom. However, they last for years and are golf ball-resistant.  

Professionals clean window screens the same way a homeowner can—by removing the screens and cleaning them with a sponge. A window cleaning pro may come with better equipment, like a high powered wet/dry vacuum or pressure washer to speed up the process and achieve a deeper clean.

Screen repair is always worthwhile, as tears and holes in your windows and door screens are unsightly and allow pests and debris into your home, rendering the screen useless. The faster you repair your screens, the faster you can open your windows and doors freely to let the fresh air in. Consider repairing multiple door and window screens during one appointment with a screen repair technician to make the investment and labor costs worth it.
