Q: How long do window screens last?

• <div><p>Most window screens hold up for about 10 to 12 years&mdash;assuming they&rsquo;re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-window-screens.htm">made from quality materials</a> and get decent care. Fiberglass and aluminum are common, but their lifespan varies depending on how much weather they&rsquo;re exposed to. Constant sun or rough winters can speed up wear and tear, while regular cleaning and basic window maintenance can help them last longer. Damage from pets or a rogue tree branch can also shorten their life. If the mesh is torn, the frame&rsquo;s bent, or they&rsquo;ve faded to a dull gray, it&rsquo;s probably time to swap them out for something new. </p></div>

Q: Are there downsides to garage screens?

• <div><p>While the benefits of garage door screens usually outweigh the downsides, there are some cons to installing one. First off, they can be quite expensive, especially if you&rsquo;re having a professional install a retracting screen or a custom size screen. Second, they let fresh air and natural light in, but they also don&rsquo;t provide the same privacy from people in the neighborhood that a solid door does. As you might guess, screens also won&rsquo;t <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-insulate-a-garage.htm">insulate your garage</a>, so they&rsquo;re often not usable in colder weather.</p></div>

Q: Do solar screens require special cleaning or care?

• <div><p>Solar screens are low-maintenance but benefit from occasional cleaning with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or pressure washing, as these can damage the mesh. Inspect screens annually for tears or loose frames to maintain performance. In dusty or coastal areas, more frequent cleaning may be necessary to prevent buildup.</p></div>

Q: Are window screens removed from the inside or outside?

• <div><p>Most window screens in residential homes are designed to be removed from the inside, especially with double-hung, single-hung, and casement styles. That said, some setups require exterior removal. Older homes or custom installs may have exterior clips or brackets, and sunscreens are almost always mounted on the outside. Before removing your window screen, look at how it is held in place. </p></div>

Q: How do I maintain an egress window?

• <div><p>Clean the glass regularly, inspect the frame and well for debris, and ensure the cover or well drains properly.</p></div>

They did a wonderful job screening in our covered deck for a reasonable price. They were friendly, hard working and professional. They cleaned up after they finished. They gave us just what we had in mind. No reservations recommending them for this type of work.
