DBA: PALM BEACH GARDENS SCREEN REPAIRS, INC. Family owned and operated. Over 30 years experience. Small overhead results in fair pricing. No deposits required.

"In Jan 2019, we paid them $3100 to rescreen our pool area. We were given a 5 year Warranty. It looked like a great job and they had to come out and replace a panel a rat ate through, and we paid for that. Perfect. Then we got iguanas that pulled 2 panels from the roof side of the house. We offered to pay for those, However, there are 6 more panels that came loose and the spine is hanging and loose panels are flapping that were NOT done by the animals. The workmanship should last more than 6 months. We have not had any storms and with just daily weather, so many panels should not have come loose. We called, texted, sent letters with no response. We only want the screens repaired as stated in the 5 year warranty, which is not being honored. We don't like doing bad reviews but are really hurt that the screen warranty is not honored. $3100 is a lot of money for us and we are back where we were with bad screens. All we want is, the screens fixed and we will pay for the 2 panels damaged by the iguanas. Thank you."

Screen Builders owners are the pioneers for the screen industry having over 135 years of experience from Jim Trimble, Mike Sonsini and Bob Demarco. We are 28 years in business and a Better Business Bureau member with an A+ rating, a member of Angie’s List and Mr. Sonsini was a past president of the Aluminum Association of Florida. We specialize in custom designed screen enclosures for your pool or patio, fences, sunrooms, remote controlled electric roll-up screens, and storm shutters. Also, we have a full department for repairing all screen or fence needs. We specialize in paver, travertine and concrete decks and driveways. We are the inventors of the removable screen panel allowing hurricane winds to blow through with a lesser wind-load against the screen enclosure wall (this is important since there was much screen structure failure during the 2004 – 2005 hurricanes). We have the solution for rusted screws which is an ongoing problem with all screen enclosures due to rainy and humid weather. All screws can be covered with a custom fitted screw cap keeping the new look always. Screen Builders was the first to offer the Phifer Bettervue screen cloth for the clearest visibility, 33% more insect protection, and keeping the pool water the warmest. We offer window sunrooms that enlarge the home square footage for an affordable value. Sunrooms are great for creating extra room for your guest.

"Great job by true professionals. I received phone calls before Steve arrived and was always told what I needed before the job commenced. Customer service, a lost art today, was superb. Even after the job was complete, I still had a problem with my front door, which was rescreened, and their quality control man arrived to repair. No questions, on time and well done."

Sunrooms and Patios questions, answered by experts

Your maintenance needs revolve around the type of foundation you choose, as well as how you furnish or decorate it. Patios require little else other than the occasional hose-down, but decks and other wooden structures will require annual power washing and sealing. You may also need to restain the wood every two to three years.

Adding a solid roof rather than building a pergola or leaving the space open will make maintenance much easier. Without a roof, you will need to spend more time sweeping, washing, and covering your furniture to protect it from UV bleaching.

Sunrooms can count as a living space—and therefore count toward your home's square footage—if they are properly insulated and equipped with electrical and HVAC access, as in the case of a four-season room. However, in many cases, three-season sunrooms that function more as enclosed porches will not get included in the square footage count and fall into the exterior living space category.

The least expensive way to enclose a porch is with screens. These protect the room by preventing insects from entering and, if you live in a warm climate, provide excellent airflow during hot summer months. Screens cost far less than any other alternative, so if you are against getting permits, spending too much, or enclosing your porch in walls or glass, screens are the best choice. 

Even under the best of all circumstances, the maximum ROI on a pool is about 56%. There are other exterior home projects that you can do that are both less expensive to tackle and net a more significant ROI. These include:

A solarium is built almost entirely out of glass, whereas a sunroom is built using other materials for the walls and ceiling, with some windows added to the walls and possibly a skylight in the ceiling. However, the sunroom uses significantly less glass compared to the solarium. The solarium may not hold heat as well as a sunroom when built in colder climates. A sunroom can use different materials for insulation, and heating and cooling systems can more easily supplement the energy gained from sunlight.
