Q: Where can I get a window or door screen repaired?

• <div><p>Some hardware or specialty window stores in your area may repair damaged screens, but it&rsquo;s less time-consuming, more convenient, and potentially more affordable to hire a screen repair technician to come to your home to do the work on-site. The screen technician will have the tools and experience to get the work done the same day, and they can inspect other screens while there to help avoid repeat repair costs in the future.</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: Can professionals enhance the durability of my screens?

• <div><p>Yes, professionals can enhance screen durability by using robust materials like stainless steel or fiberglass and employing advanced installation techniques. They provide reinforcement and repair services that extend the screens' lifespan while maintaining functionality and appearance.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to screen a 12x12 porch?

• <div><p>A 12-foot-by-12-foot porch is a 144-square-foot porch. It costs about $5 to $7 per square foot to add a screen. So, you&rsquo;ll likely pay between $700 and $1,000 to screen in your porch, depending on the type of screen you choose. If you&rsquo;re starting from scratch, building a new 12-foot-by-12-foot screened-in porch will cost about $6,400 to $18,300.</p></div>

Q: 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&rsquo;s frame and holds the screen in place. To install the spline on a screen door, you&rsquo;ll need a spline roller&mdash;a tool that presses the spline and screen into the door&rsquo;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>
