Q: How much does it cost to repair a double-hung window?

• <div><p>Window repairs cost $175 to $615, depending on the type of repair. Because double-hung windows have two sashes and multiple pieces of hardware, like locks and handles, there are many parts that can break over time. Repairing locks, latches, or other hardware costs about $75 to $200 and is easy to DIY. Fixing one or multiple sashes costs about $200 to $600.</p></div>

Q: Are window screens standard sizes?

• <div><p>Window screens are available in several standard sizes, such as 18 inches by 14 inches or 20 inches by 20 inches. You can also order custom screens to match a non-standard window. Keep in mind that screens don&rsquo;t necessarily have to fit the entire window, so you may be able to insert a standard-size screen even if your window is slightly larger.</p></div>

Q: What options do pros offer for screen material?

• <div><p>Options include fiberglass, aluminum, and pet-resistant screens to suit different needs.</p></div>

Q: How long do window screens normally last?

• <div><p>Windows screens normally last between 10 and 12 years before they need to be replaced. Rips, tears, or brittle material can all compromise window screen function. While small tears can be repaired, larger areas of damage are an indication that it&rsquo;s time to replace the entire screen. Other signs of damaged window screens to look out for include sagging, fading, or spots that look thinner compared to the rest of the screen.</p></div>
