What is the most affordable way to screen a porch?

• <div><p>The most affordable way to screen in a porch is to add a base track system to an existing wooden frame. The whole process should cost around <b>$2,000 </b>for supplies, depending on the size of your porch. It’s much pricier to build a screened-in porch or sunroom from scratch—and you’ll probably need to hire a contractor for a project like that.</p></div>

Can I repair a window screen myself?

• <div><p>It’s possible to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-replace-window-screen.htm">make minor screen repairs yourself</a> using a waterproof adhesive for small tears or a screen patch kit for larger tears and holes. However, it’s usually a better option to call in a professional window technician. It’s very easy to use too much waterproof glue, resulting in a messy appearance that might demand a full replacement anyway. A screen repair technician will not only be able to carry out clean repairs and patches that aren’t obvious, but they can also let you know if replacing your screen is a more cost-effective option.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain new windows?

• <div><p>Regularly clean glass and frames, inspect seals, and reapply caulking as needed.</p></div>

Q: Why do people put screens on garage doors?

• <div><p>Garage door screens can expand your living space, turning a garage into a home office, gym, or entertainment space. They provide comfortable ventilation, insect control, and privacy, allowing you to enjoy your space all year round. Consult a local garage door screen installer to add this feature to your space.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to repair or replace my window screen?

• <div><p>If you only need a small repair for your window screen, it&rsquo;s likely more cost-effective to repair rather than replace it. However, if you have to make the same repairs to a hole in the screen, for example, then it may be worth replacing the screen altogether. On the other hand, if the cost to make repairs to the screens or frames exceeds 50% of the cost to replace, you may want to consider replacing the window screens in question. </p></div>

Brandon Turner did some roof repair work for us in 2017. We now have multiple ceiling leaks. We tried multiple times to contact him about our concerns and he would not respond. Think twice about hiring this company to do any work for you.

Getting the quote and the work done went very good. However after the windows have been in for a while we have had one pane crack and we can't get any response from Bee to come and repair. They won't even return our calls. The work was done at 304 Redwood Court in Kokomo.

After coming back from vacation, Honorable Home Repair pressure washed the steps and sidewalk to the front door. With weather permitting, they then layered a concrete repair over the next couple of weeks. Everything went smoothly.
