What holds the screen in place on a screen door?

• <div><p>The screen on many screen doors is held in place by screen spline. Screen spline is typically a thin vinyl tubing that fits into the groove of the door’s frame and holds the screen in place. To install the spline on a screen door, you’ll need a spline roller—a tool that presses the spline and screen into the door’s narrow groove. Note that old spline can crack and break, so replacing your screens is a good time to replace the spline, too. </p></div>

Should I hire a professional to rescreen my porch?

• <div><p>If you’re not an experienced DIYer, consider hiring a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/repair-patio/">local patio repair contractor</a> to rescreen your porch or sunroom. Unless you’re only repairing a small rip or hole, this project is not an easy job. A professional can also make recommendations for materials that will work best for your porch. </p></div>

Q: What is the average cost of window repair?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-do-window-repairs-cost.htm">cost to repair a window</a> is <b>$400</b> on average, with prices ranging from <b>$75 to $1,500</b>, depending on the window size, the broken part, and the window type. Broken glass and window frames are typically the most expensive window repairs, while minor fixes like repairing the track, seal, and sash are more affordable. Other cost factors include:</p><ul><li><p>Number of panes</p></li><li><p>Window material </p></li><li><p>Accessibility </p></li><li><p>Labor costs</p></li><li><p>Emergency window repair</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

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: What are the signs that my screens need repair?

• <div><p>Tears, holes, or difficulty in opening and closing suggest a need for repair.</p></div>

Jared is courteous, responsive, smart and conscientious. Most important, he did the job of grading and repairing our driveway well, all in a timely manner. I’d definitely hire him again. Excellent.

I've used RN construction many times for multiple jobs from minor repairs to major multiple room renovations. They are honest, carefully and very good craftsman. They never fail to communicate and respond quickly. I'm currently using them to renovate a new space for my business.

We almost gave up on Giant, because they did not return our initial request for a quote for several days - are we glad we waited! Giant's price was the lowest of all the quotes we got and they honored the Angie's List coupon. We liked that Perry was willing to sit down with us and explain what...

They were absolutely excellent. He was extremely competent and took care of the mice over night. He was able to identify why we had the problem and recommended someone to us that was equally competent to create a screen for us to keep the mice out.
