What are solar screens?

• <div><p>Solar screens use a thick mesh of polyester to block out the UV waves and solar heat. While they are more expensive at about <b>$7.50 per square foot</b>, they can protect your porch or hardwood floors from sun damage and keep the room or porch on the other side of the patio cool.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to add a window to a brick house?

• <div><p>Adding a window to a brick house costs <b>$3,100 to $10,575</b>. Because you&rsquo;ll need to make changes to the structure of the home, the cost will include obtaining permits and hiring the best pros for this complex job. Larger windows will cost more to install, and the cost can vary based on the window frame material you choose.</p></div>

Q: What are the disadvantages of a screened-in porch?

• <div><p>A screened-in porch requires maintenance to keep the screens clean and in good shape, and you may have to do some screen repair or replacement from time to time. A screen porch isn&rsquo;t an all-season porch, so the weather can get in, including wind and rain.</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: Are there any rebates or incentives for installing solar screens?

• <div><p>Some local utilities or state programs offer rebates or tax incentives for energy-efficient upgrades, including solar screens. Make sure to check with your local energy provider or government agency to see if you qualify for any cost-saving programs. Federal tax credits may also be available for qualifying window and exterior home upgrades.</p></div>

Bob was prompt and professional. We had him replace the crown on our chimney, replace several bricks, replace some flashing and repair some loose slate on our front step. I would highly recommend him for any masonary job.
